Common Questions
What opportunities are available in Nevada as an A&P mechanic?
Nellis Air Force Base near Las Vegas hosts the U.S. Air Force's Red Flag exercise — one of its largest advanced aerial-combat training events — flown over the adjacent Nevada Test and Training Range, the Air Force's premier training area with more than 12,000 square miles of airspace. Beyond that, FAA-certificated maintenance shops across Nevada can supervise on-the-job training where you log experience toward your A&P certificate under 14 CFR 65.77.
Do I need to attend an A&P school in Nevada?
No. Some of the FAA-approved Part 147 aviation maintenance schools in Nevada include Aviation Institute of Maintenance (Las Vegas). You don't have to attend one — the FAA also recognizes documented on-the-job training under 14 CFR 65.77 as a path to A&P eligibility.
How on-the-job training works anywhere in the U.S. — the hours, the FAA tests, and what you need to start — is in our A&P on-the-job training guide.
