What does it take to stay sharp in aviation? A willingness to keep learning. ✈️
Meet Brandon Welch, a maintenance apprentice here at Kubick Aviation Services.
Brandon is a military veteran currently building his on-the-job training hours as he works toward earning his Airframe & Powerplant (A&P) certification.
Last week, he headed back to the classroom for two courses through the Aircraft Electronics Association (AEA), covering basic wiring and avionics installation, followed by pitot-static and transponder testing and troubleshooting.
The training included classroom instruction and hands-on learning focused on the technical skills technicians use when working with aircraft systems.
Brandon came back with overwhelmingly positive feedback, and we're excited to see him continue building on that experience!
We're also grateful for organizations like AEA that are dedicated to advancing education throughout the aviation industry. This was a valuable opportunity for Brandon, and we look forward to sending more of our technicians in the future.
Great work, Brandon! We're proud to have you on the KAS team. 👏
