PinkFive Posted January 28, 2015 Posted January 28, 2015 My husband was recently hired to an ANG unit and I will be moving with him for UPT/B-Course etc. We aren't sure what location we are headed to yet as he doesn't have orders (and will probably be receiving them later rather than sooner) so I am trying to cover all my bases on employment opportunities. I am an A&P with military aviation experience (not Air Force) and would like to get on a contract for the trainers. I've heard that L-3 and M1 conduct all of the maintenance at the various UPT locations but would like to see if anyone here has additional information about these jobs and who is the best POC. I'd like to talk to someone over the phone rather than go through the usajobs or jsfirm recruiters. Also, would the Air Force "spouse employment assistance" programs be of any help to me? I can't imagine they have many wives that are aviation mechanics looking for job placement assistance... any info is appreciated. Thanks guys.
Dupe Posted January 28, 2015 Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) My experience with contract MX: it's tough for the contractors to get a solid workforce in the areas where we have contract MX at (rural training bases). Figure out which contractors are at which bases, and you may have luck. Edited January 28, 2015 by Dupe
Toro Posted January 28, 2015 Posted January 28, 2015 DynCorp Intl also has a couple bases (Sheppard and Columbus). PM me if you're interested in finding a POC at Sheppard.

They aren't contract here though, they are GS employees. PM me if you are headed this way or would like for me to track down a POC.
PinkFive Posted February 2, 2015 Author Posted February 2, 2015 Thanks guys, I appreciate it. I'll shoot you a message as soon as I know where we are headed. I guess its good to hear they are hurting for MX and I am certainly open to a GS position as well.
