Career in Aircraft maintenance
World-wide, the business of aircraft maintenance is enormous, and is set to expand. The approximate number of aeroplanes currently in service world-wide is around 500,000 passenger and cargo aircraft and about four million smaller private aircraft used for business or pleasure.
India is one of the fastest developing countries in the world. Due to the liberalisation policies of the government, there is tremendous growth in civil aviation. Many private airlines and corporations viz., Air India, Indian Airlines, Jet Airways, Air Sahara and Air Deccan are operating today with very good operating revenues. To meet the growing need of the passenger airlines, cargo aircrafts, private air taxi operators, business and corporate jets, there exists an urgent need for aircraft maintenance engineers.
The aviation industry has two main branches: flying branch and maintenance branch. While pilots fly the aircraft, aircraft maintenance engineers are concerned with the maintenance of the aircraft. An aircraft maintenance engineer has to obtain a licence from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA).

Aircraft maintenance engineer course is not a good career option.this news is false,there is no job after doing A.M.E (course).this is a faltu course.Better do B.tec
Doing aircraft maintenanace course at the moment is not a good option(infact it will become worst decision u had ever took).As provided by TOI this is not a degree just a licensed course.now just think 3 yrs for a licensed course.what is the scope of that license.you can only work in airlines.at present there is no job for fresher.nearly more than 6000 students pass out each year.where the demand is just 200.till now in india there are 1000 aircraft operating scheduled and non scheduled.and the requirement is 5 technician per aircraft.so doing this course is not a wise move.
Yes this is a worst course.the most jobless freshers in india,could say without doubt.This course is neither degree nor diploma just certificate course.after completing this we dont get job even in other field also
As the author said there is no opportunity in airlines because they are struggling with huge losses.The lucky fresher will get below 8000/- for several years.
Before joining this course ask any AME completed freshser & realise the disguisting reality
After reading this news, my trust has been gone from Times of India newspaper. How can they publish this type of news without any information about aircraft maintenance engineering. There are no jobs at all after doing AME course. This is worst thing in India. Person will not get job anywhere in any field after completing this course. His future will get totally blank.
Actually this course is not bad. The system is wrong. DGCA’s Rule regulations and maintenance procedure all are wrong. They never can maintain a proper way to educate a student and after pass out nor to a give a required job. Because one time there are over 150 institute in all over India and more than 300 students are pass out in every year. Some Institutes are mainly open for a business and show a false hope for aviation job. But where it is? DGCA are blaming on corruption. But who create it and why?? AVIATION is a gorgeous and respectable job but out of touch for middle class intelligent students.
Dear all,
If you want to make a career in Aircraft Maintenance better join in India Air Force where the job is secured, good pay perk, life satifaction and ofcourse pride to serve your country but for that you have to complete Degree in Engineering or Diploma in Engineering but not civil engineering.Further information go to http://www.airforcecareer.nic.in
Dear TOI Team,
I would like to inform you that AIR SAHARA & AIR DECCAN airlines are merged with Jet Airways & Kingfisher Airlines in 2007. You know the condition of kingfisher Airlines. It was true that AME is best course before 2005 but now condition is totally opposite today no-one getting job in this field. After 2005 7 airlines have been closed.
I am requesting to you please don’t spread wrong information to new student.
Best regards
varun shanker
Who is that idiot ,who is thinking to have career in AVIATION?
The reality is exactly opposite, i.e. One who completes A.M.E. is a well qualified Unemployed. Doing A.M.E. is wastage of money & time. Instead doing B.E. is much more better.
you m#####r fucker , sh#t hole , dumb as# , now you post a single ad on airraft maintenance and i will get the sh#t out of your assh#le .

ek dam bakwas. Do graduation is better than AME course.
Im a trainee AME it is every ones dream to work on aircraft but now day by day this aviation field is going down why because one reasion is dgca’s worst rules and most recommendations to get a small job this type of worst situation i have never seen in my life this is first reason y the foreign countries r developing their aviation they will see talent of the indivisuals who have completed AME but in india they wil see the recommendations though u clear that bloody DGCA’S difficult papers and if u have a talent also .so this type of country wil never develop so please change this type of system and im requesting frnds dont go for this AME course waste of time and money
hi all,
this is all stupid and non sence ..civil avaition in india is not at all creating any jobs..i abhay pratap..done AME course from azad institute of aeronautics and enginneering (LUCKNOW). and not got any job till today…please i reques to TIMES OF INDIA TEAM please dont spread any worng information to new student….for some money thes news paper spread these false statement,,,,and make student life complicated…these are all bullshits………..
This is totally a false news.. the real fact is that on an average basis 10,000 students passed out from various institutes ( Avg 45) every year. On an average basis an airlines conducts a interview once a year or extremely important than twice. Per year a company hires 20 people. AIRLINES currently hiring are only spicejet and indigo as jet is in loss and kf is closed. Go air is not expanding so no recruitment. Hence the figure of students getting job can be considered to maximum of 100 per year. The editor of this news should be asked the question whats happens to other 9900 students.. anser is in the second news.. ” Pilots joining Call center” . Upcoming news will be definitely AME students joining petrol pumps or call centers…. Guys wish to have a comment on this if you think this comment is informational…
I am doing apprantice technician from air india and hope getting job here dont depresed try ur best 9749206547
Scope but no hope in aviation field
Nothing to say just
a high five to my friends.
******ITS DANGER******
M requsting to the students who wants to make their career in Aircraft Maintenance Engineering that not to choose ur career option in this branch, YOU MAY SPOIL YOUR LIFE..
taking addmission is easy but surviving after the complition of this course is tough as there isn’t a much vacancy in aviation and airlines require experienced person as well..
for any other info u can msg me in my facebook a/c. by searching me
ddrekhadubey@gmail.com
Dear TOI please donot mislead these kids, you should have some sense of responsibility, not like any other chootyia keep telling false stories. I request you please correct your statement and publish the plight of more than 10000 student and their parents.
plz .plz.plz. never even think of doing this in your dream also because all my seniors (126), my batches mates (120)& many of my juniors bathes completed this & no one of us got any single job in this field….india”s most worst course.
All students who r doing AME course i want to u tell dat the future is dark ahead & strugling is pointless.
Becoz almost 3 yrs i pushed really hard to pass dat fukin DGCA papers n nw i realized dat how i wasted ma tym n money in it.
I’ve no doubt dat the course is good bt our bloody Government & DGCA ruined it all and made it like a HELL dat u’ll sucessfully pass da course bt u won’t get any jobs, n how can we get the job when whatever airlines r operatin they r strugling to survive jus becoz f Indian Governments dirty mangements n da fukin dgca rules.
All ame institutes operatin now only meant to suck all ur money until u get dry!
Another reason may be every field u can see for e.g Automobiles,software,IT,CIVIL etc. is having some forign investments in India dats y they r growin bt Aviation, our governement left it untouched don’t know y? If this has happened atleast some yrs before nw da situation could hav been different.
So the point is i already spoiled my life doing this course but I WANT TO SAVE YOURS! so just get rid of it do some other courses.
I hope thats enough n helpful.
NO THIS AME COURSE HAS NOT A GOOD FUTURE.WHICH STUDENTS ARE DOING THIS COURSE ONLY THEY KNOW THAT IN THIS FIELD THE FUTURE IS DARK….B’COZ THE COURSE IS GOOD BUT THE JOB FACILITY IS ZERO…..WHO WANTS TO RUIN THEIR CAREER THEY WILL DO THIS…………I HOPE KABHI NA KABHI TO HUMPAR NAZAR DO BHAGBAN JEE………

Dear,
This is a nothing but stupidity to do AME course & u r spoiling your career.
To all dear friends, plz dont get excited to become an ame, because its a worlds most wrest course i have ever seen because B.com or B.sc student will get job but ame will never get any job in any field.better to join any course other than ame.
i hav been sitting at home from last 2 years with out any job i dont say the course is not gud but it is DGCA & ame institutes that play games wid those innocent lives…ame colleges show you moon at the time of admission but people dont know that they are digging their own graves untill they come to end of it…dont believe in shit wat colleges hav to say..i suggest parents & students not to spoil your childs career…as long as this dgca which take bribes no matter nothing is gonna change…iappreciate all those who commented on this article…DONT JOIN AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ENGINEERING COURSE…
Hello DGCA,
Still u peoples want to play games with students lifes who wants to work on Aicraft. i tried and traveled all the way from north to south for job…. no no OJT… on wer i got. proved my talent in aviation subjects, begged, cried. nothing worked out no job.
i am unable face show my face to my parents came out from my house presently working small industry.
even AME is not valid as degree or diploma. one samll example
Example: i tried in google cleared all the rounds in GIS process i dreamed like anything that working for Google this complete interview process taken 3 months in the last round when discussing about salary and joining date, unfortunately they have course AME in my resume, they rejectly me. there i dint lost job because of my talent only because of AME course.
AND also one important news now adays if anyone Studied and working in AME field, not getting mariage i have seen so many cases because they is no job security.
One thing i want request to DGCA stop this killing hearts of the studied really want work on aircraft.
I dont know in some IT companies, they are treating AME students as useless people, they are not allowing us inside the gate.
And big complete companies like TATA Advanced Sytems, TATA aerospace, Goodrich….etc. they wont take AME students theyll take ITI students, Arey TATA guru we are Aviation students we know the terminology, working principles, intruments system, electrical power supply ETC… etc… etc…..and What ITI people know more than us give us a chance to prove if we are not attending the interview good then go for other options.
Sorry ITI students i am discouraging you just conveying the fact info. see you people having multiple options to work, but AME students can work only in Aviation field or aerospace. and we are not eligible to apply any government jobs.
for example myself i struggled allot to study AME, talking home tutions etc…by thinking that there is bright future for me in front but bright gone drak came means dark future.
Please Indian government Or DGCA dont make try to make money always once in while please think about the lifes of students.
first stop the all AME institute for few years any provide opportunities anywere the globe, we AME people ready to work let all the AME’s get filled up.
then also dont give permission to institute see situation of future if really airlines wants people then.
AND PLEASE PLEASE PLASE begging Indian government OR DGCA Big shot. give us a certificate that it must be equalent to Degree or diploma.
See governt as citizen all AME are asking you why cant do some help to the people who really talented.
Now a days in India by mistakely if airlines or aerospace open a interviews for attending or selecting talent and not at all required if we knowing politicians its more then enough. even though they dont know the basics.
And last thing i want say after dreaming 5 year to work on aircraft i dint worked atleast on day, leave about one day i dint seen the closely. not only i am facing this problem almost all they 90% of the AME facing this problm.
If you people cant do anything for us we know your all are egar of many not tomorrow citizens, if our lifes are not yet settled at 24,25…. then when we should marry when we should help our parents.
i am not sleeping single day without crying i know how my parents struggled for my studies, see now i am hiding my face to my parents i know they are struggle allot to pay the intrest for that amount…… even though in know everything but i am helpless to my parents….because of only reason i am AME student.
Please please sir still we are hope that Our govenment or DGCA will help us to settle with happy. happy means not getting lakhs of rupees every month just feeding to parents, working on aircraft we all forget all the struggle we faced.
Hope my governmnt or My DGCA will help or career.
JAI HIND…..
DGCA FULLY RESPONSIBLE TO KILL THE AVIATION DEVELOPMENT IN INDIA ,IT IS NOT FOR AME BUT AIRLINES ALSO. DGCA HAVE NOT COMPLETED HIS POST EXPERIENCE OF 12 YEARS OF CIVIL AVIAION.

AME(AIRCRFAT MAINTENANCE ENGINEERING)
COURSE

DURATION OF COURSE IS THREE YEARS( 36 MONTHS).
WHICH INCLUDES 30 MONTHS THEORY CLASSES, FIVE SEMESTER AND
LAST 6 MONTHS ,SEMESTER OJT(ON JOB TRAINING) PRACTICAL TRAINING.
ELIGIBILITY CARETIRIA FOR CANDIDATE FOR THIS COURSE
10+2 PCM WITH 50% / DEGREE / DIPLOMA.
DUE TO 10+2 ELIGIBILITY MANY STUDENTS JOINS THIS COURE FOR THEIR CAREER
BUT IT IS THE STARTING OF THEIR AND FAMILY MENTAL AMD ECONOMICAL PRESSURE AND FINANCIAL CRICES,
BECAUSE OF NO JOB IN THIS FIELD AND VALUE OF THIS COURSE IN OTHER PLACE THAT GIVE A EARNABLE CONDITION OF ITS STUDENT.
DISADVANTAGE OF THIS COUSRE AFTER 30 MONTHS OF THIS COURSE OJT PHASE STARTS
NOW A DAYS AME STUDENT PAYING MONEY TO AVIATION ORGANIGATION FOR WORKING AS UNPAID APPRENTICE FOR ACQUIRING EXPERIENCE IN THE FIELD OF MAINTENANCE IN AVIATION SECTOR EVERY WERE IN INDIA.
WE ARE ON INDIAN APPRENTICE ACT.
HOWEVER FEW ORGANIGATION HAVE STARED SPLIT POYICY OF APRENTICESHIP PAYMENT TO APPRENTICE AS STIPENT AND UNPAID TOO.
Unpaid treand IS NOT REMOVED COMPLETELY FORM THE AVIATION .
AFTER APPRENTICESHIP DURATION COMPANY IS NOT PROVIDING JOB TO THIS STUDENT AND NEW STUDENT ARE UTILIZES AS NEW MEN POWER AND SOURE OF ENCOME TO THESE AVIATION ORGANIGATION.
SO, AME COURSE IS TOTAL WASTAGE OF TIME AND INDIAN FUTURE AND ENDS UPTO APPRENTICESHIP,
AND STUDENT CANT GO TO ANY WERE ALSO BEYOND THIS FIELD.
SIR,
I WANTS TO REQUEST TO DIRECTOR GENERAL OF CIVIL AVIATION , GOVT. OF
INDIA THAT AFTER GAINING AME TRAINING WITH LICENSE PAPER OR WITHOUT PAPER FROM GOVT. APPROVED TRAINING INSTITUTE (CATEGORY G),
VERY FEW STUDENTS ARE WORKING IN AVIATION SECTOR AND OTHER STUDENTS THOSE HAVE CLEARED 3YEARS COURSE ONLY, AFTER SPENDING THEIR TIME AND MONEY, BY SELLING THEIR VILLAGE LANDS AND TAKING LOANS FROM BANK COMES IN A STATE OF LIKE AIM LESS MOTIVE LESS ENGINEER THAT ARE NOT ABLE TO EARN WITH THEIR STUDY AND NOT ABLE TO STUDY FURTHER BECAUSE OUR COURSE IS DESIGNED LIKE THAT ITS BLOCKS OUR CAREER.
IN PRESENT THERE ARE MORE THAN 77 AME TRAINING INSTITUTES IN INDIA ARE PRODUCING 6000 STUDENTS PER YEAR IN COUNTRY OUT OF WHICH ONLY 10 GETS JOB AND REST GETS UNPAID APPRENTICESHIP FOR A INDEFINITE PERIOD.
MY INTENTION IS TO DRAW DGCA RESPECTIVE OFFICERS ATTENTION THAT THIS SYSTEM IS NOT GOOD FOR INDIAN STUDENTS FUTURE.
SIR, AFTER GAINING VALID DIPLOMA /DEGREE ONE CAN MOVE TOWARDS ANY SECTOR, MBA ,MCA ,OR HIGHER STUDY.
ACTUALLY AFTER PASSING OUT OUR FUTURE IS NOT SECURE, LIKE GENERAL DIPLOMA/DEGREE COURSE, AND
ONE BIG DRAW BACK OF OUR COARSE THAT.
ANY OTHER ENGINEERING STUDENTS/DIPLOMA HOLDER.
OR
X-SERVICE MEN ARE ABLE TO ENTER OUR AVIATION SECTOR(AIRCRAFT
MAINTENANCE FIELD )AFTER GAINING SOME AERONAUTICAL EXPERIENCE, JUST BY WORKING WITH AVIATION ORGANIGATION AND IS LIABLE TO WRITE AME LICENCE EXAMINATION, DGCA INDIA.
AVIATION ORGANIGATION ITSELF AT THE THIME OF INTERVIEW/ RECUIRMENT SAY TO CANIDATE WE WILL NOT CONSIDER YOUR
UNPAID EXPERIENCE. BY KNOWING THE FACT OF THIS FIELD THEY ARE DOING LIKE THAT STEP BEHAVIOUR .
SIR, PLEASE MAKE SOME CORRECTIVE ACTION SO THAT WE CAN ALSO MOVE TOWARD
OTHER SECTORS, AND STUDY FURTHER IF NOT ABLE TO BE AN AME. AT LEAST MAKE
SOME PROVISION THAT AME STUDENT CAN GET SOME CONCESSION IN OTHER SECTOR SO
THAT WE CAN EARN SOME MONEY FROM OUR STUDY AND GET A RESPECTIVE PLACE IN SOCIETY.
BAN THIS COURSE OR ISSUE DIRCTIVES TO THE AVIATION AND DGCA FOR DOING AND SUPERVISING THIS TREND AND RECTIFICATION IN THE SYSTEM.
IT IS MY HUMBLE REQUEST TO ALL RESPECTIVE OFFICERS.
THANKING YOU.
