I really enjoyed my time at the AIM school, being in the interior department at one vision aviation I was always exposed to every single aspect of what makes up aviation maintenance. But at the aim school I was given the chance to learn how to solder and some other stuff that I didn't have as much practice with. In October I took my test for my Airframe license and passed, one of my practicals was soldering and I learned that in class. For someone who's never worked on an airplane AIM will expose you to an immense amount of different hands on knowledge, and I would highly recommend it
