A week in maintenance can give you a lot of different views.
This week took us from the shop floor to the ramp and through a mix of inspections, troubleshooting, repairs, and projects moving through the hangar.
That’s one of the things we enjoy about this work. Every aircraft that comes through the door brings something different, and every week gives us another look at the work that keeps them flying.
