B1&B2
@Flamebringer
I don`t know where you got the "most companies don`t appreciate this attribute" from, because the company that i work for doesn`t have a single mechanic that isn`t both B1 & B2, several of us have a C rating on top of that as well. We do get paid for having both, eventhough my B2 is rarely used i still feel it`s a good thing to be "dual" rated.
As we have a lot of outstation work far from mainbase it gives us more independence to solve a problem on the spot, with out calling in extra manpower.
In my oppinion you are more employable when you have both ratings, wether you get paid more or less is something you have to deal with yourself in a salary negotiation, or make clear that your are there working solely as eg.a B1
You work on what the boss tells you in the end, and if it`s within your scope of capabilities, and your rights are held up, does it matter what you work on if you like working in both fields?
Rolls Trent. in the end it`s up to you, i`m pretty sure that there as many oppinions as there are mechanics, but you`ve heard from a couple of them now at least.
Good day
