TITLE(s): RESEARCH MECHANIC (aircraft mfg.) alternate titles: laboratory test mechanic
Lays out, fabricates, assembles, and tests mechanical, electromechanical, structural, hydraulic,
and pneumatic aircraft parts, assemblies, and mechanisms to assist engineers in determining faulty
design or fabrication procedures: Lays out, fabricates, and assembles parts, assemblies, and
mechanisms to be tested, according to blueprints, specifications, sketches, templates, or verbal
instructions. Installs test specimens, such as rib assemblies, struts, landing gears, valves, ducts,
fuselage sections, and control surfaces, in test equipment, and connects wiring, tubing, couplings,
and power sources, using handtools and power tools. Operates test equipment to gather data on
performance of parts, assemblies, and mechanisms under simulated flight and operational conditions.
Measures induced variations from normal, using precision instruments, such as micrometers, verniers,
calipers, pressure gauges, flowmeters, strain gauges, and dynamometers. Records and interprets test
data. Confers with engineering personnel regarding test procedures and test results. Fabricates and
assembles test equipment, tooling, shop aids, or other devices for experimental test projects.
