How do I become an Aviation Maintenance Technician (AMT)?

I am currently a sophomore at Aviation High School. I want to get both my A&P licenses. My school offers these licenses. If I'm still FAA and I pass all the qualifying exams (General and Airframe or Powerplant) I can get either the Airframe or Powerplant license by the end of senior year. In my junior year, I can apply to a program called "Fifth Year." This program allows me to stay at my school for another year to get the license I did not get yet. However, this program is very competitive. What do I do if I don't get into Fifth Year? If I only get one of the licenses, can I still become an AMT? How do I get the AMT job? Are any airlines going to hire someone with no experience even if I have the license? Are there any internships related to aviation I can do? If I get both my licenses, what do I do next? Do I have to go to college? Should I go to college? If I go to college, what should I major in? How am I going to find an AMT job?

After going through air traffic control training, will I have to memorize coordinates or things of that nature when working with certain tools or will there be an option for me to look things up if I get stuck or forget something??

From the small video over view that I watched on this occupation, I noticed various advanced technology being used and I want to know if it will be difficult for me to get the hang of it or if there is a safety net to ensure that I don't forget how to do certain things while I am working.

Going out of flight school with a private helicopter pilot's license, what are some jobs in which I'd be eligible to still make a wage?

#aviation Originally, I had applied to the Coast Guard Academy to become a helicopter pilot and got hours that way, but recently was rejected. My backup plan is to go through a private pilot school and get my license that way. The issue I am running into is how to go about still gaining hours, while making a livable income, with just a private pilot's license. #pilot #college
