Key responsibilities

  • Perform scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, inspections, repairs, and modifications on historic and specialty aircraft in accordance with FAA regulations.

  • Maintain and troubleshoot a diverse fleet of aircraft, including warbirds, vintage airliners, and fabric-covered biplanes.

  • Support the operational readiness of aircraft used in national tour programs, training operations, and public displays.

Job description

SUMMARY
Bring aviation history to life-and keep it flying.
At EAA, this isn't just another maintenance job. It's a chance to work on some of the most unique and historically significant aircraft in the world while supporting a mission that inspires millions of aviation enthusiasts each year.
As an Aircraft Maintenance Technician, you'll be part of a highly skilled team responsible for maintaining and operating an extraordinary fleet-including warbirds, radial engine aircraft, vintage airliners like the Ford Tri-Motor, fabric-covered biplanes, and other iconic aircraft. Your work will directly support flight operations, educational programming, the EAA Aviation Museum, and Pioneer Airport-our fully operational 1920s and 30s-era airfield.
ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITIES
  • Perform scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, inspections, repairs, and modifications in accordance with FAA regulations
  • Maintain and troubleshoot a diverse fleet of historic and specialty aircraft
  • Support the operational readiness of aircraft used in national tour programs and training operations
  • Contribute to aircraft restoration and preservation efforts
  • Assist in preparing aircraft for public display and flight demonstrations
  • Support day-to-day operations at Pioneer Airport, a living-history 1920s and 30s airfield
  • Play a key role in supporting the EAA Aviation Museum, helping bring aviation history to life for guests
  • Assist with major events, including EAA AirVenture Oshkosh, the world's largest aviation gathering
  • Collaborate with volunteers and may support oversight of volunteer maintenance efforts

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS
  • A&P certification required
  • Strong mechanical aptitude and troubleshooting skills
  • Ability to work independently while exercising sound judgment and initiative
  • Attention to detail and commitment to safety and quality
  • Passion for aviation-especially historic, vintage, or unique aircraft
  • Flexibility to support event-driven operations and seasonal demands

WHAT MAKES THIS ROLE UNIQUE
  • Work on one-of-a-kind aircraft you won't find anywhere else
  • Gain hands-on experience with radial engines, vintage systems, and fabric-covered airframes
  • Be part of a team that doesn't just maintain aircraft-but preserves aviation history
  • Support both active flight operations and museum-quality aircraft
  • Operate in a dynamic environment that blends maintenance, events, education, and live demonstration flying

WHY EAA?
At EAA, you're not just maintaining airplanes-you're helping inspire the next generation of aviators while keeping history alive and flying. From museum aircraft to cross-country tours to daily operations at a 1920s-era airfield, no two days are the same.
If you're looking for a role that combines technical skill, history, and purpose-this is it.
PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS
The job may require the ability to push, pull, bend, twist, raise, lie, and squat when needed. Must be able to lift at least 50 pounds with ease. Office setting some of the time.
Preparation for AirVenture or other events may require lifting up to 50 pounds, occasionally, standing and walking for extended periods of time while bending, squatting, kneeling, twisting, and push and pull motions.
