Labs and Simulation Spaces

In this lab students from all three aviation technician programs-Aircraft Maintenance Aircraft Structures and Avionics Maintenance-learn the hand skills required to maintain and repair aircraft metal structure. The skills taught in this lab prepare students to work in all areas of aviation: aircraft manufacturing, aircraft repair and overhaul.

With support from aerospace industrial partners, this lab provides students with the experience of an operational manufacturing plant.

Students from our Aviation Technician - Aircraft Maintenance and Aviation Technician - Aircraft Structures programs will use this lab to learn how to build aircraft parts. The lab focuses on composite materials, with full production control and quality assurance systems, teaching students to follow the best practices used by major companies.

Commonly referred to as the “Dirty Room,” this specialized workspace is designed for the fabrication and finishing of aircraft composite parts. It houses a CNC machine used to create molds and tooling essential for composite manufacturing. The room also accommodates grinding, sanding, and trimming operations, ensuring that all finishing tasks are performed in a controlled environment.

First-year students from all three Mohawk aviation technician programs—Aircraft Maintenance, Aircraft Structures and Avionics Maintenance—will use this lab to learn basic electrical and electronic theory, providing them with fundamental hands-on skills in circuit diagnostics and repair.

Students from all three Mohawk aviation technician programs—Aircraft Maintenance, Aircraft Structures and Avionics Maintenance—will use this computer lab to learn how to navigate aircraft maintenance manuals and reports.
