OUR A&P TRAINING PROGRAMS

To address the global aircraft maintenance technician shortage, we developed SmartStart. SmartStart is a set of initiatives that provides various ways of entering the aviation industry. SmartStart currently consists of four approaches to airframe and powerplant (A&P) licensing and careers in aviation. These programs include a full scholarship to an A&P school, a student loan forgiveness program, an apprenticeship program, and the C&L Experience (an annual event showcasing aviation career paths to local high school students). 

See all our available job positions on our careers website.

WE ARE C&L

C&L is a multinational corporation with over 250 employees. We believe in providing opportunities for our employees to grow and advance within the industry. Our employees aren’t just wearing aviator sunglasses because it’s “cool” – their futures are that bright. 

And bright futures extend beyond our facility. We provide opportunities that make a difference in our community. That’s why we adopted a local school, helped fund a local community garden, provided holiday meals for those in need, and purchased winter coats for area children.  

OUR SENSE OF HUMOR

By now, you’re probably wondering how such a great company started. We’ve been wondering that, too, and we have a few theories.  

We could try to tell you about everything we do here at C&L all at once, but we know better than to overload you with information. Instead, we built this entire website devoted to our various services, programs, parts inventory, and aircraft sales.
