This apprentice pays for a Grease Pilot Student plan.
Preferred students are on a paid Student Basic or Student Advance plan. They log their OJT hours on Grease Pilot by ACS section, with photos and their A&P's signature, and they have invested in their own training: a good sign they are serious about an apprenticeship. They are shown first in the A&P Apprentice Finder and among the apprentices who can come to your area.
Supervising an A&P Apprentice in Arizona
Your shop can grow its own mechanics. Under 14 CFR 65.77, the supervised hours an apprentice logs under your certificated A&Ps count toward their mechanic certificate — no Part 147 school required. You document the training as it happens; when your apprentice is ready, FAA Form 8610-2 goes to the FSDO serving your area — the local FAA office that verifies their supervised experience and authorizes them to take the mechanic tests. The FAA divides Arizona between 2 FSDOs. Three counties are split between the two offices; if you're in one, the service-area map on each office's FAA page shows which office serves your town:
Scottsdale Flight Standards District Office
- FAA page: faa.gov FSDO page
- Address: 17777 N. Perimeter Dr., Suite 101, Scottsdale, AZ 85255 (by appointment only)
- Phone: (480) 284-4450
Serves: 12 counties and part of 3 more
Apache, Cochise, Gila, Graham, Greenlee, La Paz, Maricopa, Navajo, Pima, Pinal, Santa Cruz, YumaPart of: Coconino, Mohave, Yavapai
Las Vegas Flight Standards District Office
- FAA page: faa.gov FSDO page
- Address: 7181 Amigo Street, Suite 180, Las Vegas, NV 89119 (by appointment only)

Apprentice Pipeline: AMT Schools in Arizona
FAA Part 147 schools are one pipeline for apprentice candidates in Arizona — students and recent graduates often look for shops where they can keep logging experience. The FAA certificates 4 Part 147 aviation maintenance schools in Arizona:

- Chandler-Gilbert Community College (Mesa)
- West-MEC (Glendale)
- American Leadership Academy Applied Technologies (Mesa)
You don't have to wait on a school pipeline: the apprentices above are candidates for on-the-job training your certificated mechanics can supervise under 14 CFR 65.77.
Common Questions
What FAA office do my A&P apprentices report to when turning in their OJT experience documentation?
Nothing is filed until your apprentice is ready to test. Then they bring FAA Form 8610-2 and their documented experience to the FSDO serving the area where they work, which verifies the experience and authorizes the tests. 2 FSDOs serve Arizona: Scottsdale (12 counties and part of 3 more) and Las Vegas (part of 3 counties). Three counties are split between the two offices; each office's FAA page has a map of its area. Each is listed above with its address and phone.
What does it cost to hire an A&P apprentice in Arizona?
Aircraft mechanics and service technicians in Arizona earn a median of about $75,300 a year (BLS, May 2025). An apprentice isn't certificated yet, so we recommend paying below that, with raises in steps as they progress (for example, as they pass each FAA test) until they earn their A&P.
