What programs or schools do you recomend in 2024 to start aircraft maintenance tech? In Atlanta Georgia.

Im a huge fan of your channel, I enjoy every second of your videos. What recommendations would you provide to become an aircraft maintenance?

Stig , I am George T Baker A&P Grad from the early jet age. Please mention George T Baker was pioneer of aviation and the founder of National Airlines.

Bet a hundo STIG flew on an A220 with JB. 56 bucks one way!? Sounds like the price I used to pay for discounts with Continental in the Navy. Any plans for AA to phase out the 319?

Missed your visit! Hope I get to meet you next time you visit George T Baker Aviation.

Being a standby passenger is ok sometimes. But what if you have planned a proper holiday internationally and then can't get on. You need some kinda of way of confirming or it could ruin a holiday. Is there a way to lock a flight in ? like purchased a heavily discounted ticket over tax only ?

Wow, I haven't seen the inside of a centrifugal compressor for a long long time!! Awesome cool!!

I'm a freaking nerd,l like this stuff so much,I watch this videos two and three times!!

I too have a PPL but let it go. At the end of the day, I realized it wasn't my calling. To be a successful pilot, you have to have the ability to fly regularly or else you get rusty. To be a safe, proficient pilot takes the funds to fly often. If you can't fly often enough, you are never able to improve and it's not a good situation. It leads to stress and it can kill the joy of flight.

I find this highly interesting. Just love all kinds of machinery and tech and stuff. Just looking inside one of those wheel wells, seeing all these piping and what not. People designed this. Amazing.

why do the 777 and 787 have trim handles but the 737 has trim wheels?

I love your videos

I'm not sure I agree with you when you say fault identifying and troubleshooting, and then fixing isn't exciting. It so totally is. The only other word I can think of is 'cool', the way the aircraft monitors itself is awesome!

Another truly brilliant video again Stig. Another week, and the bar gets higher again, how are you doing this!!?? On the graphic for the PFR, on the single asterisk note, it says CFDIU Standard 9B and upper then CFDIU Standard 8 and lower. What exactly does that mean?

Im always late to Stig videos. So after summer break im going to start watching the videos one the bus cuz it takes a while to get home. Also remember when I told you about a phone headmount. I got one with a chest strap. And after the first use i had a big headache from it. I haven’t used the chest strap yet but id say the chest strap is better unless you want a full pov. I may have gotten a headache by the way the headmount was designed.

Thanks for everything you share Stig. Could you explain how the PTU mechanically transfers the pressure from one system to the other? I might just be being dumb here but I don't get how the energy is transfered between the two systems. I've looked at diagrams but I can't get my head around it.

The lines on the CRT (Cathode Ray Tubes) are the refresh rate of the screens themselves not a test, My dad was a tv engineer and helped build the first front loading vcr so have been working with tv's and stuff since age 11. Rewound several times about those faults..why would they occur under no stress points when very little is being asked of the aircraft? Love the content as always, About the mechanic school in an apocalypse which of those planes could you get flying quick within a day or 2 at the most? Bearing in mind they wouldn't need to be that safe. Would love to see you do a video with rebuild rescue as well if you could help them out would be amazing.

Another great video but....''NSTIG-172. I have a number for you to call when you get on the taxiway and ready to copy''.....lol

Thank you once again for providing us with such informative, educational and fun videos. Have to admit I'm addicted.

Hey Stig! As always, we all love your videos. I’ve never made a suggestion before for a topic but here it goes… Could you discuss that circular spiral pattern on the cone/pointy part of the turbine? I know that thing is designed in a certain way that no matter what the RPM the engine is rotating at, is you can always tell if the engine is spinning or not. I remember reading or seeing somewhere that it’s a safety feature of the turbine, thanks again!

Still learned something new; landing gear angle. Thank you so much, Stig, for this adventure and every adventure. The Airline Videos Live 24 hour show is next Friday into Saturday. I guarantee that if you stop in, you’ll be gifted many cups of coffee from all of us there. 🙂 The tour of the school also never gets old. You landed your plane quite well. I thought about learning to fly a couple years ago; had a photographic memory, but major illness messed that up. Between the content you give us AV Geeks and the amazing videos from AVL, my aviation fix is satisfied. Take care, be safe.

Great vid as always, thanks. Do you have Norwegian roots? Stig is a classic Norwegian name.

I can't really describe it but it always is such a warm cozy feeling seeing those EIS1 airbusses...:3 16:00 huh I always assumed it's for impact stability. basically I thought the nose gear is angled like this to make it more resiliant towards impact during taxi and turning during taxi and the mlg is tilted like that to provide a perfectly perpendicular impact during landing (pitch attitude of ~5-6°, angle the mlg back so that it will be perpendicular to the surface when the highest force act upon it)

How close can you actually get to a running engine? I know it's painted on the ground, how many feet away are you actually when it's pulling into the gate? Can you ever feel the suction?

Kitty is so cute❤😊

Thank you for this trip to Miami, very interesting. It's a little return to the past, but si important to understand the présent. A nother good job Monsieur Stig !

Roll on stig 380 lol😊

Found it. Thank you stig.

Outstanding video. Thanks so much for sharing.

What's wild is that I've watched an engine taxi over a foam earplug that blew in front of the engine. It didn't even budge.

I was checking the brakes as the engines shutdown. I saw where the vorticies were still happening in the rain, just above the ground and put my hand in it. It felt so strange. It pulled my hand up slightly. GE90-110B

so does an airplane get assigned only 1 technician? or is it a team working on a plane? awesome vid!

Hey Stig, great video as always! FYI you probably already knew but didn't mention for people, the other reason for dual stab trim switches is for prevention of a trim runaway in case of a faulty trim switch. (For other people reading, a trim runaway is where the aircraft gets an uncommanded tendancy to pitch nose-up or down, it is very rare but dangerous as it can lead to upset attitudes without the Pilots realising, aircraframe overstress, possible stall, loss of terrrain separation etc.). So both switches have to close to actuate the trim, in case one gets stuck closed/shorts during flight.

If you're ever in georgia there's a museum at the Robin's airforce base, they have a ton of old and pretty new military aircraft that you can walk around and look at. Best part is it's completely free! I'm in a school to be a a&p near it and love going to look around Forgot to mention, love the content! As an a&p in school i love being able to get a idea of what its like

i live 5min form miami

Well I read your answer that you said don't have much time to clean the assembly, in my opinion think safety before money ,let say that 1 day the Axel is cracked some where for the 2 wheels ( you forgot to clean the whole entire assembly, hopefully not to be a disaster

How do they keep the luggage from moving in the cargo hold during flight in a 737? I've seen them just stack the bags without pallets.

Another great video and informative! Quick question @2:46 as you’re walking thru the cabin, why are some of the FA call lights above the seats flashing?

Hi Stig! Your videos are addictive. Been watching them for many months now and I am starting to see stuff when I am flying that I never saw in the past. Starting to become and armchair expert.

По форме воздухозаборника напоминает CFM56

aviation is as safe as it is thanks to the amazing knowledge skill and craft of what you do with your friends and co workers. and yes i about drooled on my keyboard when u teased with that mad-dog walk thru that plane looked super fast sitting on the ground yet was kinda slow compared to its rival the 727 the DC-9 did wonders for aviation and helped airlines grow routes airbus did good with the 319Neo on short runways when your carrier has to do TOGA that thing puts on a ride far better than the 80 ever could

Stig I go to gtb sucks I couldn’t see you there I currently at baker getting my powerplant I’m 2 months away to start testing for the oral and practical

Thanks for showing us what a real A&P school looks like. Spoken by a guy that just finished his basic training in a sh*tty part 147 here in easaland. Keep up the great content.

I got a question for you 😲 how's many planes coming in going one work

Thank you for presenting the true meaning of Memorial Day. It isn’t picnics, it isn’t sales, it isn’t shopping, it’s not anything but remembering our Vets who served & sacrificed for our Country & it certainly isn’t politics. Your videos are great & shouldn’t be cut into sections. Whatever is easier for you; after all you are doing us the favor of sharing & we certainly appreciate you & what you do. Bless you. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

👍👍🖖

Hey Stig! Awesome video as always! The primary reason for 2 trim switches is to prevent a runway trim situation in case one switch decides to short out. This is the case with pretty much any trim switch even down to a Cessna 172!

Great video....always learn something new watching!!!....Thank You AECU old A&P

I assume you have gone through classes with American on all the aircraft that you work on. How long do those classes usually take?

Thanks!
