U.S. Air Force: Tactical Aircraft Maintenance Specialists

Staying mission-ready is just half of the battle, that’s why we look to Tactical Aircraft Maintenance Specialists to ensure our tactical aircraft – such as fighters, strike-fighters, and attack planes – are always ready to fly at the drop of a hat.

Been a Crew Chief on C-130s since 1997. 10 years AD and the rest Guard. It's all how you look at things. I've grown up into adulthood as a Crew Chief. It gets into your blood. I'll retire soon with more stories and memories than all my neighbors... some stories I'll never tell!

I've seen a few comments here about not becoming a maintainer/crewchief, all i can say is follow what will make you happy and benefit you once you leave the service. I was a crew chief and I loved it. Yes there were days you worked long and hard hours and some days you got screwed but it comes with the job. As a crew chief on heavies (C-141B, MC-130-H and KC-135's) I've been all over the world as a flying crewchief, just you, your assistant crew chief and your airplane god knows where and that was the beauty of it. Just two people to fix anything that goes wrong with the aircraft. Now retired I work for a contractor that build aircraft for the military.

FYI, the music played during YT ads is loud and annoying. Tone it down, please!

Without a camera you know damn well that O isn't gonna do no maintenance 🤣

For those watching this and aren't in yet: do not be a maintainer. They work terrible hours, get treated like trash, are mission essential so if you're on a base with snow you won't get any snow days, they don't get family days off, etc. I'm sure it sounds like I'm complaining about little things but I've known so many maintenance people who have cross trained just to get out of the field.

Inform people that enter the Air Force there is Civil eng on the bases The personnel have to live on base and someone must maintain these areas such as Electricans plumbers maintained on living quarters Ever job is important in the Air Force
