CLEVELAND — It’s been a turbulent year for the aviation industry, which has been plagued by pilot shortages and flight cancellations due to COVID-19.
It takes a lot of work to keep these planes in the air, and after 25 years, avionics technician Stan Augustine knows them like the back of his hand. The industry is having trouble “getting qualified technicians to work on these complicated airplanes now,” Augustine said. Constant Aviation’s program can take a person from no experience to a qualified technician in just 18 months. They’re also targeting and recruiting from other maintenance fields.
Constant Aviation has also hiked pay for technicians by 10% in 2022 to not only attract but keep quality workers. “The commercial airlines that are at the gates that people fly in and out of all day long occasionally have a departure time break,” Davies said. “We've all been there before and hear it, since we're on the field here, the airlines will frequently call us. We'll go over and try and help them get their aircraft cleaned up and back in the air to meet that schedule.”
