As a certified Aircraft Mechanic, you need to at least have some working knowledge of the Air Transport Association Chapters, or system codes. Confirm to your interviewer that you have knowledge of what the codes are and what the overall significance of the codes mean in your work as an Aircraft Mechanic. Then, talk about the specific codes that you have firsthand knowledge with, through the work you've done in the past. As you answer, it doesn't hurt to mention that you enjoy learning more and more of the codes as your career progresses.

"I would rate my knowledge as above average on the ATA Chapters. I regularly refer to and have most knowledge of the power plant codes 71 through 84 and how they are often referenced in the component maintenance manuals that I have worked with. ATA 72T is the code that I most often reference in regard to turbine engines."
