Brandywine Aviation & Maintenance | West Chester, PA (KOQN)

Full-Time | On-Site | Direct Hire | Relocation Candidates Welcome

Brandywine Aviation & Maintenance is a growing general aviation company located at Brandywine Regional Airport (KOQN) in West Chester, Pennsylvania. We operate a flight training and aircraft rental fleet while providing maintenance services for both company-operated and privately owned aircraft.

We are looking to add an experienced, motivated A&P Aircraft Mechanic to our maintenance team. This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys hands-on general aviation maintenance, takes pride in quality workmanship, and wants to be part of a growing aviation business.

• Perform scheduled and unscheduled maintenance on general aviation aircraft.
• Conduct inspections, troubleshooting, repairs, and preventive maintenance in accordance with FAA regulations and manufacturer requirements.
• Diagnose and resolve airframe, engine, electrical, and mechanical issues.
• Perform maintenance on piston-powered aircraft, including Cirrus, Cessna, Diamond, and light sport aircraft.
• Maintain accurate maintenance records and logbook entries.
• Coordinate with the maintenance team to ensure aircraft are returned to service safely and efficiently.
• Assist with annual and 100-hour inspections.
• Maintain a clean, organized, and professional work environment.

• Valid FAA Airframe and Powerplant (A&P) certificate required.
• Inspection Authorization (IA) preferred but not required.
• Prior hands-on general aviation maintenance experience required.
• Strong knowledge of piston aircraft engines, airframes, and associated systems.
• Experience with Lycoming, Continental, and/or Rotax engines preferred.
• Familiarity with Cirrus, Cessna, Diamond, or similar aircraft is a plus.
• Ability to troubleshoot independently and work effectively as part of a team.
• Strong attention to detail, safety, and regulatory compliance.
• Good communication and organizational skills.

We offer an opportunity to work in a growing aviation business with a diverse fleet and a steady variety of maintenance projects.

Unlike larger airline maintenance operations, our environment provides opportunities to work directly with aircraft owners, pilots, and other aviation professionals while developing a broad range of technical skills.

We value experienced mechanics who take ownership of their work, demonstrate good judgment, and appreciate a professional, team-oriented atmosphere.

• Competitive compensation based on experience and qualifications.
• Full-time, direct employment.
• Paid time off and company holidays.
• Opportunities for professional growth as our maintenance operation expands.
• Additional compensation considerations for qualified IA holders.

We welcome applications from qualified mechanics interested in relocating to the West Chester, Pennsylvania area.

For the right relocating candidate, company-owned one-bedroom apartment housing located approximately 10 minutes from the airport may be available for consideration. Housing arrangements would be discussed individually as part of the overall employment package.

If you are an experienced A&P mechanic looking for a long-term opportunity in general aviation, we would welcome the opportunity to speak with you.
