Aircraft Maintenance Engineering at Redwings Aerotechnique
Aircraft Maintenance Engineering (AME) is a licensing course regulated by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), Ministry of Civil Aviation, Government of India. An AME inspects, maintains, repairs and troubleshoots aircraft, and a licensed AME certifies that an aircraft is airworthy and safe to fly before it takes off.
Redwings Aerotechnique is a DGCA-approved CAR-147 basic training organisation in Bhopal. The basic programme runs for three years (six semesters) in the B1.1, B1.2 and B2 streams, with classroom theory as per the DGCA syllabus and practical training in labs, workshops and the hangar.
Redwings Group also runs its own DGCA-approved CAR-145 MRO, so students learn maintenance from an organisation that does real aircraft work every day.
