Without taking anything away from pilots; whose own roles are incredibly important; these techs are just as super important and are like surgeons. They not only need to do the right job, they need to follow rules, not cut corners, use original parts and know they are (not counterfeit) and understand everything. And not levee a single bolt, a single wire disconnected. These people keep the actual plane in the air, keep people safe and they deserve all the money they earn. Kudos!!!

[@arrow-flight]

Agree - one of the reasons that crews' names are on military planes similar to the pilots. Team effort!

[@thearcher1740]

Sort of...your post/view is what "makes sense" to the layman but is not actually how this works on a macro level. While they are professionals who should be admired, they make mistakes (and can be dishonest, lazy, whatever) like every single human "professional" and human factors cog in the machine. What makes an operation of 2 million parts work "right" (even "right" doesn't mean what you think it means) are cascading redundancy systems and repeated rechecks/failure detection systems that reduce "entire system failure" probability down to miniscule (note non-zero) levels. I'm on the engineering side of this, and there are systems in place so that a "single disconnected wire" or "a single loose bolt" will be detected long before production deployment happens (and the offending parties isolated/reprimanded). End of the day most (including the engineers as myself) are nothing more than skilled worker bees following a very well orchestrated manual. Fault tolerance/detection is a whole discipline in itself. We don't have an accident just because a couple techs have a hangover or are forgetful at work. System is designed to tolerate those errors way way before rubber meets the road (or an air pocket meets an airfoil in this case lol)

@Steven Rivers Well I am a transfer student so I started off at community college before heading to university so I only understand it from that context. Different universities have different requirements. So UC's, CSU's, and private institutions all can each have their own set of requirements for a particular program. There is a lot of overlap and generally speaking I noticed they tend to focus on you having your math up to differential equations and linear algebra, your physics sequence complete, and certain chemistry courses finished as well as your english and other general education requirements completed. These requirements may not all be strict and you may not need to complete everything in every last category to transfer. I know my answer is somewhat convoluted but the process truly does vary.

Yes, every engine (even on the same aircraft) has different performances, there’s limits to how slow they can spool up before it requires troubleshooting but they won’t accelerate at the same rate, they will also have a different efficiency due to how far in their life cycle they are. However the electronics on board do a great job of masking all of that nowadays, thus you need very little throttle adjustement.

This fluid does not get changed and as mentioned, there is a lot of oil loss through the air/oil seals. The integrated drive generator (IDG) will have it's own self contained oil supply but it too gets serviced and routinely topped off.

I'm happy they get paid well. They are highly skilled with a lot of responsibility. Would you rather they were low paid, and had to work a second job to make ends meet?

@@vw1610 my buddy works at united he works on there aircraft but then again he went to school for a while he makes like 125$ an hr there idk here i thought it would be slimar

lone star I work for Fedex. Currently Fedex and UPS are the highest paid aircraft technician’s. They have been for years. Top hourly pay is around 65-70. Everyone else even Southwest aren’t even in the 60’s yet. Even the structure engineers at fedex don’t even make 70$ an hour. Not sure how your friend is making over 100. 🤔

Great video.

[@armoredsaint007]

i guess this was filmed way before COVID and that engineer's badge expired march 31 2020, lol

[@nathanseago]

Now that's noticing the details. Haha.

[@zolox4814]

Alot easier and cheaper to go somewhere and film multiple things at once and slowly edit them over time as you need to upload.

[@sircrapalot9954]

At 0:35 the narrator literally said this was filmed in February before COVID was a pandemic.

[@ahemjunior]

their expensive just because they don't produced much, most of the money goes to cover reseach cost. Its like a ferrari headlight vs toyota headlight, toyota is way cheaper because they're mass produced.

[@nloughner2015]

@@ahemjunior not just that, those particular blades looked to be the for the high pressure turbine. Most likely they are single crystal titanium which is not only an incredibly expensive technology, but also incredibly expensive to produce as well. I've wanted to break into jet engine design for years, but covid and other events before it had other plans so I am glad I chose a different route for my Mechanical engineering degree right now.

@@AviatorGamer no, but animals do and plants do. Probably bacterias get sick too. So you should have said "lol planes are alive".

[@rontiemens2553]

Didn’t realize this is a 24x7 operation. But of course that makes sense. Does this mean that, say on an engine overhaul, that the project is handed off from day shift to night shift work on, and so on from shift to shift, until the overhaul on that engine is complete?

@@michaelgerlach2736 nah Boeing 747 max had this problem with the engine placement and they were too lazy to design a fix to mount on the wing, so they used software to override the problem, and that resulted in 2 crashes with their Boeing 747 max planes. All Boeing 747 max planes are grounded by the faa but only after 100s of deaths all responsible because someone wanted to make money.
