thanks cesski,, took me a while but i found it under 'download>others',, but as of 2006.. am i missing something? tc
hmmm.. i don't think so. i think the CAAP site has been updated recently. you're welcome.
better call the numbers nalang if you're in doubt.
thanks again cesski,, will do...mag istambay man ko sa siquijor, i'll pay a visit the guys in dumaguete to see what they can do.. tc
@cesski and siq
thanks sa response.. =)
great help.. tenchu very much... =)
TESDA Aircraft Training Center takes flight

In the aviation industry worldwide, skilled workers in aircraft structure repair are highly in demand
because aircraft structures make up 80 percent of the whole aircraft.
To address this demand and allow Filipino workers to break into the aviation industry, the Technical Educational Skills Development Authority (TESDA) introduces a technical vocational
course in aircraft maintenance, to be conducted by Filipino aviation company Aerotechnik Services Inc. and the Mechatronics Robotics Society of the Philippines (MRSP).
“We are currently pursuing high-end technology courses so we can train more Filipino workers in cutting-edge skills and give them a competitive edge for highly specialized occupations,” states
TESDA Director General Sec. Augusto “Boboy” Syjuco. “Multinational
employers favor Filipino workers for their positive work attitude and work ethic. By equipping them with technical skills, our workers gain more opportunities
in the global workplace.”
Hands-on training
The ATM (Aerotechnik TESDA MRSP) Aircraft Training Center was specifically established for conducting skills training in aircraft maintenance.
Jesus R. Lim of Aerotechnik Services, assistant vice president for training, reports that the center has received over a thousand applicants from all over the country, eager to avail the scholarship worth R40,000.
“We are taking in 250 students under full scholarship for the initial training, which spans 720 hours,” notes Lim. “Approximately 80 percent of the course hours will be focused on hands-on training.”
The newly-inaugurated aircraft training center not only boasts of expert trainors with a combined experience of over 90 years in the aviation industry and aircraft structure repair; it is also equipped with complete facilities for sheet metal structure repair as well as an actual fuselage of a DC-9 jet aircraft to be used as a training model.
“Aircraft structure repair is one of the most demanding jobs in aviation, so it requires rigorous training,” explains
Syjuco. “Overhauling an aircraft averages around 60 days of intensive labor, and mechanics check every inch of the plane’s structure for cracks or corrosion.”
Students will be trained to repair commercial planes such as B747, L1011, B777, B737, MD-90, MD-11, Airbus-300, Airbus 330, and other types of aircraft.
“By the end of the course, the graduates will form the nucleus of a group of all-Filipino aircraft structural mechanics capable of overhauling any type of aircraft,” Syjuco says.
Employment opportunities
A bright future awaits the course graduates, as the aviation industry is always in need of aircraft structure mechanics, and the center has an established network of contacts in the industry to refer their graduates to.
“Filipino airlines will no longer need to send their planes abroad for repairs if we have enough mechanics here to do the job,” says Syjuco. “We will be able to conserve our foreign currency.”
Employment opportunities are also plentiful outside the country, with pay commensurate to the level of skill required by the job.
“Depending on the employer, the starting pay for aircraft structure mechanics ranges from $800-$1000, which increases as they gain more experience or when they get signed by an airline,” adds Lim.
With this revolutionary training facility, TESDA is confident that the Philippines will become a highly competitive country in aircraft maintenance and repair in Asia.
“The ATM Aircraft Training Center is another effort of TESDA towards its mandate to develop the skills of the country’s labor force so our workers
can be competitive against their foreign counterparts. Equipped with high-quality skills, the Filipino workers of the world (WOW) are set to make a mark in the global workplace.” Syjuco concludes.
Kani na kurso need ni siya ug educational background related sa aviation sa? or pede ra mga technical courses like ME ug uban pa? Nindot ni siya na balita da!?
knanglan daw AMT/Avionics graduate. pero pwd rapud daw ME or uban engineering, requirement pd TOR ug diploma. next year pa kuno ni kung madayon man gani, pa reserve lng daw kung interesado.
Link lng mu ani ai
- BE AN AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE MECHANIC IN 4 MONTHS!!!
kinsa muadto sa LANGKAWI for LIMA 2009? http://www.lima.com.my/
Please let me know if naa para naa koy uban..ahahahaa
