Hard to be a good AE but if you have drive and a good brain this shits easy af. Is it the best aviation rating? No, Aw does literally 0 work and just gets to ride in the bird everywhere. AM work their dicks off so fuck that. AD is pretty easy. Shits either good or bad. No in between no troubleshooting anything. AZ is good if you want to just do paperwork all day and never actually wrench on anything. Never leave the nice ac in the summer or the heat in the winter. If you get AT well you’ll be good at swapping boxes.
