Western Aircraft • Boise, ID • 5h ago

JOB SUMMARY

THIS OPPORTUNITY IS FOR TRANSITIONING MILITARY SERVICE MEMBERS ONLY

Our Aircraft Maintenance Internship is an excellent opportunity for transitioning service members to gain valuable civilian work experience during their last 180 days of active-duty service. SkillBridge participants are not eligible for compensation from Western Aircraft, as they continue to receive military compensation and benefits as active-duty service members.
