The inspection team's final words to students before they depart for Port Moresby were "Go into overkill mode with your studies and see you at the exam centre." ICAO has made a prediction based on the workforce on hand that there will be an estimated shortage of 1.5 million aircraft maintenance engineers worldwide by 2030. This is based on the age of the current workforce and the drive for new recruitment. Papua New Guinea should work toward supplying licensed aircraft maintenance engineers when the demand arise so study hard and study smart and aim for a 100% score in your licensing exams.
