D.o.m. Missing?

[jetbox]

Anybody else notice how many operators are looking for Directors of Maintnenance?

It's funny how up to 10 or 15 years ago, a chief Engineer's position was something a lot of engineers aspired to, but now it seems they can't give those jobs away! I wonder if the ridiculous amount of red tape and responsibility has anything to do with it??

D.O.M. stands for Director of Maintenance ?????????????

 

I always thought it was Drunk Old Man. It seemed more appropriate at many places I worked.

Must have been quite a combo---a drunk old man and a pilot with his feet in his mouth.

Head for the hills boys!!!

Methinks the Dam has burst and the excrement is about to impact the rotary air movement device.

Have fun with this one - until the moderater arrives to restore order.

I am outa this thread.

Skullcap, I will take my foot out of my mouth to apologise for any offense caused, that was not the intent.

No lines crossed here .. yet.

 

No names and no companies mention.... appears to be just a general dicussion.

 

Actually thought that things have improved drastically over the last few weeks :up:

Widgeon, there's actually a difference between a P.R.M. and a D.O.M.

If a company has its own AMO, then the P.R.M. is usually also the D.O.M.

For a small operator that hires a contract AMO for its maintenance, they can't have a D.O.M. but they must still have a P.R.M. to assure the contract AMO fullfills its contractual obligations.

Confused yet??

Cyclic Monkey, your interpretation of D.O.M. (taken as harmless humor of course) isn't technically that far off the mark if you go far enough in the history of some operators. I could probably name a few guys that, although are no longer among us, would pretty much fit that description to a T!!

No offence to any drunk old men out there by the way!!!
