A&P Aircraft Maintenance Technician

Winchester, VA (KOKV) | Cirrus Authorized Service Center

As a Cirrus Authorized Service Center, our KOKV maintenance team focuses primarily on general aviation aircraft with reciprocating engines, with a significant emphasis on Cirrus Aircraft maintenance and support.

This role is hands-on and maintenance-driven, ideal for technicians who enjoy general aviation, owner-flown aircraft, and in-depth mechanical troubleshooting rather than heavy turbine or airline-style environments.

Relocation assistance may be available for qualified candidates. If you're an experienced A&P considering a move for the right long-term opportunity, we'd encourage you to apply.
