MARCH 2020
Bigger and Better
The AMC has become a global sensation for aviation
maintenance. Under the direction of organizers Ken
MacTiernan, The Honorable John Goglia and its presenting sponsor, Snap-on, the AMC has grown tremendously in the past seven years. "Snap-on is pleased to
once again be the presenting sponsor of the Aerospace
Maintenance Competition," said Tom Murray, director
of marketing, Snap-on. "We've watched the competition grow from 20 teams to upwards of 90 teams,
and 500 competitors. The AMC is so much more than
simply a competition; we wish everyone the best of
luck this year in Dallas."
The AMC provides a venue for professional mechanics to come together and test their skills against each
other, while also developing a strong sense of camaraderie over two days of friendly competition. This
year, the diverse lineup of teams in Dallas will show
off their knowledge, skill and integrity by competing
in 28 events, including airframe damage inspection,
cable rigging, fiber optics, engine fan blade removal
and many others that challenge their knowledge of
aviation maintenance.
"The AMC tests the multiple skills required for
both basic and very detailed performance-based
tasks. There are also events that require techs to
use their minds," said Goglia, a former National
Transportation Safety Board member. "In aviation,
it's not just mechanical dexterity that gets you through
the day, you have to use your head and think. That's
what aviation maintenance is all about, using your
hands and head to come to a solution."
Teams compete to see who's best in six divisions:
Commercial Aviation, General Aviation, Space,
Military, MRO/OEM and School, which attracts teams
from the country's top A&P schools. Each event has a
15-minute time limit; the action is exciting, fast-paced
and great drama for fans to watch.
Teams will be competing in 28 events, such as
demonstrating proper techniques of safety wiring.
