PARTNERSHIPS
​
At F&E Aircraft Maintenance, we value our customers, our employees and the community we inhabit. With pride, we strategically position ourselves to take active participation in building relationships that not only increase our operational capacity, but that also enhance our overall organizational outlook. We are proud affiliates of the El Segundo Rotary Club, which is a not for profit service organization whose stated purpose is to bring together business and professional leaders in order to provide humanitarian services, encourage high ethical standards in all vocations, and help build goodwill and peace in the world. F&E believes wholeheartedly in embracing the opportunity to serve society as a whole.
F&E’s vision for the aviation maintenance industry includes a process of continuous learning. In order to provide employment and training opportunities to the local communities surrounding LAX, to achieve innovative labour cost reductions and to maintain a growing and competitive workforce, F&E has established relationships with local colleges that provide the Aircraft maintenance training courses required for licensed A&P mechanics. With these relationships, F&E remains well prepared to maintain an experienced workforce as existing mature mechanics gradually retire. Furthermore, as these new mechanics are in training, F&E’s starts them at the entry level as cabin cleaners and cross utilizes them so they are able to gain experience under the senior mechanics. This plan provides work incentives for advancement, increases productivity, reduces turnover and reduces costs for our customers.
