Aviation Maintenance Magazine – Solving the Shortage of Aviation Technicians Through Product Design The MRO industry is seeing an exodus of retiring mechanics — even as fewer young mechanics sign up to enter the trade. Exacerbating the situation is the extensive training and dated equipment aspiring technicians must contend with before they can join the workforce. To find solutions, we can look at the adoption of advanced technologies by other industries over the last three decades. New technologies have enabled tasks to be performed by technicians that only a short time ago could only be done by highly trained professionals. For example, in the automotive industry conducting diagnostics over WIFI networks, applying advanced filtering on images, and analyzing millions of records with the touch of a button are now easy to do. The Problem: Decreasing Workforce During Industry Growth The aviation maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) sector is facing a growing personnel shortage. A top cause is that mechanics are retiring at an increasing rate. Before the pandemic, reports say the average age of an aircraft technician was 57. With airlines offering early retirement packages, the industry is facing an irreplaceable loss of knowledge.
