Hi All,

Just after some very urgent information!!!!
Can anyone tell me what the average weekly wage is for a Aircraft Maintenance Engineer with over 10 years experience in the industry in the NSW area.

Do not need details just basic amounts ie (not including shift or O/T)

Thanks in advance of any replies.

Considering and hoping you are hoping not to be an AME forever,

For a LAME ;;;;

With regards GA and Regional,

Down the South Aus$ 80k / year for a full timer,,,,

Up in the North it shall lean towards the 60k

Obviously it depends on what equipment you work on, what licence you carry etc etc....

Bigger Better gig once you have Jet ratings and such.

LAME's and AME's,, Great stuff and work Shielas/Blokes.... keep it up, the industry NEEDS YOU.
