Aircraft Technicians (Avionics) are responsible for the complete range of cockpit instrumentation and electronic systems used on RAF aircraft, including equipment for radar, communication, navigation, weapon aiming and delivery, flight control, and image and data acquisition systems. You will also maintain the electrical generation and distribution systems on the aircraft.
Initially, you will be trained and serve as an Aircraft Maintenance Mechanic, where you will gain valuable experience of working around aircraft and be part of a team preparing aircraft for take-off and checking for damage and wear after they return from a flight. During this phase, you will be given the opportunity to assist with the replacement of both mechanical and avionic components, regardless of your future technician trade.
Following a period of further training, you will then be a qualified Aircraft Technician (Avionics) and able to carry out the full range of responsibilities of the job, diagnosing and repairing more serious faults and carrying out complex maintenance tasks.
The RAF’s technician training earns you a National Engineering Certificate at Level 3 and Key Skills at Level 2. Following completion of an NVQ Level 3 in the workplace, you will be awarded an Advance Apprenticeship in aeronautical engineering. Whatever your skills when you join, you can be sure of getting valuable training in a specialist trade.
