Working as an aircraft technician with the Armed Forces of Malta
Interview with Andrew Camilleri
A whole rescue team of people, pilots and civilians (sometimes) depend on him. Several million-euro worth of equipment depends on his expertise and dedication to keep it in perfect condition. And this is just part of Andrew Camilleri’s daily duties as an aircraft technician.
At only 24, Camilleri has taken on the crucial role of maintaining an aircraft used by the Armed Forces of Malta for rescue missions and other operations. Although he reports to a whole team above him for the aircraft’s condition, he knows just how many people depend on his accuracy and diligence on a daily basis.
Watch Camilleri’s interview to find out what it is like to work on a plane.

This is some good PR opportunity for AFM in order to show their valuable work and human capital. It would have been better however if the two agreed on a language prior to this interview, this continuous code switching looks flawed unfortunately.

This is a new trainee technician he basically does not certify aircraft for flight, he is line ground crew preparing the initial walk around preflight, ultimately is the Aircraft engineer & pilot-in-command of flight that will deem aircraft airworthy on acceptance.

When my brother was in the RAF, many pilot in command asked him to fly with him as a technician knows the aircraft better tthan the pilot. My brother always accepted to go with the test pilot as long as my brother flew the aircraft. All pilots accepted the offer. There were Gozo Channel captains who told me, " Mr Pule I feel safer when you are on the ship with us!"and I too took the wheel.
