Aircraft Maintenance Engineering is one of the most fascinating careers for young talented students. It is a dynamic and vibrant sector of the global aviation industry, which underpins enormous commercial and social benefits. The aviation industry is highly competitive and needs well-trained individuals capable of working effectively within a rapidly changing environment. Established in 1995, The Aircraft Maintenance Engineering Institute of RG Aviation (a unit Rajiv Gandhi Aviation Academy) is a premier AME training Institute, approved by Director General of Civil Aviation (D.G.C.A.), India. We are dedicated to grooming a breed of efficient, knowledgeable, and skilled engineering professionals to cater to the ever-growing demand of the Aviation Industry.

​

We offer a fully integrated Aircraft Maintenance Engineering (AME) course. Our highly experienced team of instructors and practical trainers conduct practice-oriented, advanced technical training courses that provide the knowledge and skills you need for a career in the aircraft maintenance repair and overhaul sector of the Aviation Industry. Our training program is renowned for its consistency and relevance to the fast-changing demands of the aviation industry. We have trained students from India and around the world to help them achieve their dreams of becoming an Aircraft maintenance engineer (AME).

​

In addition to some of the most advanced training facilities and infrastructure, we have a fleet of world-renowned Cessna aircrafts, and our own hangar, where practical training is offered to the students. As there will be several expert hands at the hangar, the students get an opportunity to be trained at the international level for the maintenance of all types of airlines. We develop students’ abilities in engineering, design, management, and be able to make an immediate contribution in the workplace. We have teamed up with many airlines to provide our students with performance-driven training solutions that meet the complete requirements of the Aviation Industry. Our students graduate career-ready with a strong academic foundation and the most comprehensive training available. Our students now hold enviable positions in premier aviation organizations in India and abroad.
