Currently, CAS has five female A&P mechanics employed at its LAX line maintenance station. In addition, CAS has two female A&P students who are working towards their A&P license.

Certified Aviation Services LLC (CAS) is proud to take part in the advancement of women in the aviation industry. According to Women in Aviation International, “During the last two decades, the number of women involved in the aviation industry has steadily increased and women can be found in nearly every aviation occupation today.” Currently, CAS has five female A&P mechanics employed at its LAX line maintenance station. In addition, CAS has two female A&P students who are working towards their A&P license.

John Blair, CAS’ LAX station manager, stated, “It is such a pleasure to watch these young women do their walk-around pre-flight inspections on some of the largest aircrafts flying today. They are driven, professional, knowledgeable and have gained on-the-job training here at CAS. I receive compliments daily from our customers on how pleased they are with their performance. I look forward to watching them grow into experienced technicians. I am proud to say these hard-working women work for CAS.”

CAS focuses on the advancement of all its employees by providing them flexibility with their schedule, in-house training, as well as offering their A&P mechanics the opportunity to work on a wide range of airframe and power plant types.

CAS employees who are working towards their A&P license have the opportunity to work for CAS’ aircraft interior services, as well as its dry-wash exterior cleaning. These roles give students the chance to be immersed in the industry while still working towards their license. With CAS willing to work with its employees’ schedules, it makes it easier for students to attain their A&P license.
