Aircraft maintenance in New Jersey
New Jersey has the highest median wage for aircraft mechanics in the country — roughly $110,000 per year — driven by the enormous New York metro airspace and the concentration of major-airline maintenance at Newark Liberty (EWR), a key United Airlines hub. The dense Northeast air-traffic system generates constant, high-value maintenance demand.
Beyond Newark, New Jersey hosts significant defense and Coast Guard aviation, business aviation at Teterboro (one of the busiest business-aviation airports in the country), and a network of aerospace suppliers. The trade-off is a very high cost of living, but nominal pay is unmatched.
New Jersey's Part 147 training feeds directly into the metro's major employers. Programs are VA-approved, and the proximity to Newark and Teterboro gives graduates strong lines into airline and business-aviation work.
