The FAA recently approved a new airframe and powerplant (A&P) mechanic program at the Universal Technical Institute (UTI) Miramar, Florida campus. Classes are underway now for the 18-month course of study.

UTI said the new program will teach students to diagnose, repair, and maintain aircraft, powerplants, and their components. This is the educational institute's fifth A&P program, and it joins UTI facilities with A&P programs in Avondale, Arizona; Long Beach, California; Canton, Michigan; and Houston.
