What do you like most about aviation maintenance?

What I like most about my job is working with airplanes. I like doing the maintenance work safely and quickly so the planes can depart on time. Right now, as a Crew Chief though, poker hand rankingsI work mainly with the Mechanics giving them the job requests that come through so they can go out and fix the planes at the terminal. That can be anything from putting oil in the aircraft, checking the tires — anything and everything.

Why is it important to celebrate calvin lee pokerNational Hispanic Heritage Month?

It’s important to celebrate our roots. As a Panamanian, I am proud to be from Panama.

It is also an important country like the United States.

Why is diversity and inclusion important?

Aircraft maintenance can be an environment surrounded by men, and if I didn’t feel included — if I felt like I couldn’planning pokert do the same work as they do, they would avoid me, they wouldn’t want to work with me, they wouldn’t even want to develop a friendship with me.

So, it’s good to feel included and everyone has the right to work and be able to do what our heart tells us to do.
