I'm Al Morvin, a Designated Mechanic Examiner based in Northeast Arkansas. Complete the oral and practical tests for General, Airframe and Powerplant with me. Give me a call. I will be glad to get you scheduled.
Whether you're finishing school, testing out of military, field experience, or adding a rating, I'll run you through it efficiently.
The foundation section — the knowledge every certificated mechanic gets held to.
Structures and systems across the full airframe curriculum.
Reciprocating and turbine engines, inspection through troubleshooting.
I'm an FAA-certificated A&P / IA mechanic and a Designated Mechanic Examiner working out of Northeast Arkansas. I administer the oral and practical tests required for your Aviation Maintenance Technician certificates.
I'm a working mechanic and your exam is in a fully equipped shop.
I'll hold you to the standard but I'll treat you right doing it. From your first phone call to the temporary certificate in your hand. No games, no surprises.
Give me a call and let's talk about where you're at.
My home base is Walnut Ridge. An easy drive from the Missouri Bootheel, West Tennessee, the Mississippi Delta and points across the region. Airline into Memphis or take an inexpensive commuter flight to Jonesboro. Applicants come to me from all over.
Convenient to Walnut Ridge (KARG), Jonesboro (KJBR), Batesville (KBVX), Paragould (KPGR), Blytheville (KHKA), Newport (KM19), Memphis and the Missouri Bootheel. Call me and we'll work out scheduling and location.
A DME is someone designated by the FAA to give the oral and practical tests required for your Aviation Maintenance Technician certificate. I evaluate you on the General, Airframe and Powerplant sections and issue your temporary certificate when you pass.
Call or text me at 501-617-1220, or shoot me an email. We'll sort out which sections you're testing, go over your paperwork, and pick a date and place that works for both of us.
Bring a government-issued photo ID, your FAA Form 8610-2 authorization, and your passing written test reports for whichever sections you're testing. I'll tell you about anything else when we set it up.
Depends on how many sections you're taking. A full General, Airframe and Powerplant run usually spreads across a few days. I'll map the schedule out with you when you call.
I sure do. I get applicants driving in from Missouri, Tennessee, Mississippi and all around the region. Call me and we'll figure out the details.
The fastest way onto my calendar is a phone call. Let's get you certificated.
