JOB SUMMARY
**THIS OPPORTUNITY IS FOR TRANSITIONING MILITARY SERVICE MEMBERS ONLY**
Western Aircraft is an approved SkillBridge Internship provider under the Department of Defense Instruction 1322.29. Our Aircraft Maintenance Internship is an excellent opportunity for transitioning service members to gain valuable civilian work experience during their last 180 days of active-duty service. SkillBridge participants are not eligible for compensation from Western Aircraft, as they continue to receive military compensation and benefits as active-duty service members.
During the Aircraft Structures Internship, interns will work up to 40 hours per week while they receive training from experienced structures technicians in our FAA certified Repair Station to develop skills to assist with structural inspection, testing, maintenance and repair of aircraft per FAA and manufacturers specifications. Interns will receive hands-on structures maintenance experience to prepare for a career in corporate aviation working on aircraft such as Gulfstream, Dassault Falcon, King Air, Cessna, Piper and Pilatus.
This internship does not guarantee you a job with Western Aircraft. Upon successful completion of your internship, you will be evaluated and potentially offered a full-time position on the Western Aircraft team.
