Abstract
This research tries to identify the extent of aviation engineering law familiarity among 2nd year Aircraft Maintenance Technology (AMT) students of Jocson College Inc. Aviation laws and regulations, issued by the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP), play a critical role in promoting aviation safety, compliance with regulations, as well as engineering responsibility in aviation maintenance services. Quantitative research design was utilized in carrying out the research using a structured survey research instrument. The study targets selected 2nd year students of Aircraft Maintenance Technology of Jocson College Inc. Analysis of the result showed that students have a good awareness of aviation engineering laws to a high or very high extent, especially about CAAP regulations, airworthiness, aviation safety, aviation maintenance, and Approved Maintenance Organization regulations. Though their degree of awareness of human factors laws is moderate. Lectures, teaching methodologies, as well as direct exposures, are found to be some key factors that influence student awareness. Conclusion: Though students are strongly knowledgeable about the base topics of aviation engineering, emphasis on human factors is advised to make students more knowledgeable about aircraft maintenance law.
