Mech

MECH provides stories, information, procedures and most of all, a place to raise safety awareness among our aviation maintainers. The safety information and risk awareness articles in MECH are credited as a critical part of a continually improving safety program in naval aviation.

Since 1961 MECH has been the aviation maintenance safety magazine for the Navy and Marine Corps. With inputs from the fleet, Naval Safety Command staff and subject matter experts, MECH helps keep the aircraft mission ready and flying.
