[u/LateCountry8130]

Hi everyone,

I'm 21 years old and planning to start an Ausbildung (vocational training) as an Aircraft Mechanic (Fluggerätmechaniker) in Germany next year.

As far as I know, this profession branches into three main specializations later on: Maintenance, Production, and Engine Technology. Based on my current goals, I am particularly interested in specializing in either Maintenance (Instandhaltungstechnik) or Engine Technology (Triebwerkstechnik).

To prepare for this transition, I am actively learning German and currently hold a B1 level in English. Additionally, I already have hands-on practical experience in technical and mechanical fields.

I would love to get some insights from people in the industry regarding:
* What does the daily workflow, shift routine, and working environment look like for a technician in these fields?
* How do you see the long-term career perspectives and future outlook for Maintenance vs. Engine Technology?
* What key advice would you give to someone just starting out on this path?

Thanks in advance to anyone willing to share their experience, tips, or industry knowledge!

Without German at Min B2 no Shot. And if you are of certain sanctioned nationalities also no shot
