I would recommend bombardier or jet aviation. Unless you prefer the wide-bodies, then by all means go for the 2 staples.

Similar to any fresh pilot bonded to their company, trainees always have lower pay, if you can't bite the bullet then I guess this industry is not for you. An experienced tech with a diploma can command up to 6k to 12k salary outside of Singapore, so think 5 to 10 years down the road and not what is in front of you. The work we do is "craftmanship" based and therefore degree is not really anything unless you dream of being in an office and having 3 hours of lunch break daily.

U need passion and love for the industry

Coz Pay really not attractive for degree holder

But if you love it , it is worth it.

Why trainee tech? With degree u can go for trainee LAE program.

Then again, if you like hands-on job and don't mind the pay and comparison with your peers or even opposite sex, then go for it.

Siaec bonus is still 0.5 plus low increment at 1.5%. Until siaec improve its payscale and allowance,being a workshop engineer is more relevant.
Hi, is it possible if i can PM u as i have some questions regarding this career? I am currently studying mechanical engineering from local U and i am keen in pursuing this field

Good pay

For a diploma holder LAE, the pay is excellent, it is tough to find this high pay in the mechanical engineering industry with a diploma. For degree holders LAE, if compared to their peers in other sectors or even the white-collar aerospace route, you can expect wavering viewpoints on whether it is worth trading your family time to match up with their expected salary.

The LAEs over in the US, EU and Middle-East are doing 70 to 100 sgd per hour, how much do you think our LAEs are earning? And are you comparing an LAE with years of experience w/ multiple type courses vs a greenhorn engineer?
Good point. I am speaking to LAEs that are waiting to finish their bonds, which means they are not as experienced.
