About the Council

The Aerospace Maintenance Council ("AMC" or "the Council"), a non-profit organization (see our bylaws), and its flagstone event, the Aerospace Maintenance Council Competition ("The Competition"), recognizes and celebrates the aviation maintenance technician, and raises awareness of the knowledge and skill required to maintain safe, airworthy aircraft, worldwide. 

The Competition is held annually in conjunction with Aviation Week Network’s MRO Americas and for the first time in 2025, in conjunction with Vertical Aviation International's VERTICON.

The Competition provides an opportunity for current and future maintenance professionals to showcase their abilities and see how they stack up against peers across the country. Teams compete in maintenance events in one of the following categories:

  • Commercial Airline

  • General Aviation

  • Military

  • Repair and Manufacturing

  • School

  • Space

The competition is supported through the generous contributions of the aerospace community. Sponsors host events, provide prizes, and make monetary contributions. Visit the specific Competition pages for more information on supporting and/or sponsoring an event.
