Yep... Here's the same... it's difficult starting without any experience... All I can say is... I was VERY lucky! just 1 year after school I got the job

Nice! here after highschool you get the "basic" license, but there are 4 types... the "under supervision" (basic) the "A" for less than 5700 Kg MTOW and "B" and "C" for more than 5700 Kg MTOW and "C" allows you to certificate modifications on airplanes. Being A 2 years of experience, B 3 and C 4 I think and now the ANAC (Argentinian FAA) is implementing an exam to get the different licenses...

Hey! how's the deal to get the A&P license there? Here is just a regular high-school but with the aeronautical orientation, of course.
