Aviation structural mechanics may be assigned to sea or shore duty in any place in the world, so their working environment varies considerably.
They may work in hangars or hangar decks, or outside on flight decks or flight lines at air stations.
A high noise level is a normal part of their work environment.
AMs work closely with others, do mostly physical work and require little supervision.
AMs may also serve as flight engineers aboard certain aircraft.
