6048 Flight Equipment Technician

What a 6048 Does

Flight Equipment Technicians inspect, pack and repair the gear that keeps aircrews alive, including parachutes, survival kits and oxygen equipment. Because some of this equipment contains explosive devices, you must meet explosives handling standards. Careful, detail-focused work here directly protects pilots and aircrew.
