Cargolux currently employs around 200 aircraft mechanics. They maintain and repair our fleet of Boeing 747-400 Freighters, as well as the aircraft of our maintenance customers. These mechanics are highly qualified and have undergone extensive training. Many of them were trained in Luxembourg, and obtained their internationally recognized Aircraft Maintenance License (AML) by following a Cargolux sponsored curriculum at the Lycée Technique Emile Metz, in Luxembourg City.The AML curriculum While the first year of this two-year program consists mainly of classroom-based studies, the apprentice's study time in their second year is divided equally between practical work at Cargolux and further classroom studies.
Successful students are awarded an Aircraft Maintenance License that is recognized in all countries of the European Union as well as a Luxembourg CATP end-of-school certificate. However, 3 to 5 years of additional work experience are still necessary before the apprentice becomes a fully operational Cargolux mechanic. Career options After having obtained his qualification, further possibilities for career development are available, leading with time to the position of foreman or supervisor, as well as other technical responsibilities within the company.
Salary The salary evolution of the mechanic is determined through a collective work agreement.
