The video is not a good representation of the job. It's much more than just power generation. Now, with new aircraft such as the F-35s, you may be exposed to totally new equipment that works on a multitude of different principals. Hydraulics, facility power, diesel, and others. Additionally, someone needed to have fact checked the specs because the MSgt was referring to a -86 whereas the Amn was detailing a -60.
@@lilricky5483 You work on such diverse equipment it can transfer over to many civilian careers. Here is what you will learn: diesel engines, gas engines, air conditioning, heating, pneumatics, electronics, generation, and hydraulics. You can take these skills to any number of civilian jobs and be a top pick to be hired. When I got out, I found my experience allowed me to work on just about anything. My mechanical and electrical knowledge was extremely versatile. After AGE training and years of experience you can tear just about anything apart and figure out how it works and how to repair it.
I think the editor of the video switched views to a different machine, but didn't account that one guy said "dash 86" and then the editor just arbitrarily switched to a totally different AGE clip, and so it seems the airman saying "turbine" was really talking about the turbine shown, but the failure was in the editing. They needed to add in the fact they switched to different AGE footage.We flightline guys know what we are talking about, and I bet those guys in the video do too, but the editor of the video does not, as they kept switching between two completely different AGE machines :p - 2A531 95' - 99' KC-135. (We appreciate you AGE guys!, you helped us maintain our jets!!) Thank you for your service!!
@@socer451well im in the guard, I was hired On as a federal technician so I had to reclass. I also wanted to go back to trade school for electrical, and the job it also involves hvac. I feel like the job would be a good for that
