Occupational Survey Report: Aircraft Hydraulic Systems. AFSC 2A6X5.

Abstract

This is a report of an occupational survey of the Aircraft Hydraulic Systems career ladder conducted by the Air Force Occupational Measurement Squadron (AFOMS). The current Aircraft Hydraulic Systems career ladder was created in October 1993 with the conversion from AFSC 454X4/A to AFSC 2A6X5 under the "whole new classification system". Survey data will be used to identify current utilization patterns among career ladder personnel and evaluate career ladder documents and training programs. The last OSR published for the Aircraft Hydraulic Systems career ladder was June 1993. As described in the AFMAN 36-2108 Specialty Description, dated 31 October 1997, Aircraft Hydraulic Systems personnel troubleshoot, remove, repair, overhaul, inspect, and install aircraft hydraulic systems and components, including support equipment (SE). Personnel entering the AFSC 2A6X5 career ladder must attend the Aircraft Hydraulic Systems Apprentice course at Sheppard AFB TX lasting 51 academic days. Upon completion of this AFSC awarding course, the graduate is awarded the 3-skill level. Entry into this career ladder currently requires an Armed Forces Vocational Aptitude Test Battery (ASVAB) score of Mechanical - 57; a strength factor of "K" (Weight lift of 70 lbs) is also required.
