3 Flight engineers assigned to the 709th Airlift Squadron, visited Delaware Technical Community College in Georgetown, Delaware, to speak to aviation maintenance students about the Air Force’s flight engineer career field April 20. The squadron, a component of the 512th Airlift Wing here, flies airlift missions on C-5M Super Galaxy aircraft and is currently hiring. The goal of the visit to Del-Tech was to recruit graduates from the school’s Aviation Maintenance Technology program to fill its flight engineer vacancies. “We’re looking for individuals who are interested in aviation and who have a desire to understand how mechanical and electrical systems function,” said Senior Master Sgt. Thomas LeJeune, the 709th AS assistant superintendent of flight engineers. “Recruiting flight engineers is critical, because they’re required to complete our global airlift mission.”
