Since September 11th, we all know how bad the industry has become for Aircraft Mechanics - Layoffs, Outsourcing, Air Carrier Bankruptcy, ect.....

 

There are a lot of different employment opportunities for aircraft mechanics in the federal government, visit:

 

USAJOBS - The Federal Government's Official Jobs Site

 

 

One ray of hope in our industry has been the Teamsters (yes, we are unabashed Teamsters supporters), for the simple reason Aircraft Mechanics have prospered under their contracts even during these uncertain times.  Below is are a few examples of Teamsters contracts.

 

**CAL / IBT Labor Contract**

**Southwest / IBT Labor Contract**

     **Southwest is represented by AMFA but still under the IBT contract**

**UPS / Teamsters Labor Contract**
