Any airline operates on time only when a collective effort from both Aircrew and Ground crew is put to task. In aviation, ground crew or ground staff are the support personnel that service aircraft on the ground as opposed to aircrew, who operate an aircraft while in flight. The term ground crew is used by both airlines and military aviation. Airline ground crew members include: Airframe and power plant technicians, avionics technicians, ramp agents, customer service agents, and flight dispatchers. Ground crew members are responsible for clearing the runway and GATE area of any debris or garbage, in order to prevent foreign object damage by an object being sucked into an engine. The crew visually inspects the tarmac and removes any items found; this is typically called a "FOD walk" and is done prior to an aircraft's arrival and departure. As explained ground staff are responsible for a variety of job assigned at each level. To join this course, you need class 12 or 10+2 in Arts, Science, Commerce or any other field. A 3-year diploma in engineering or other field, from a state board of technical education, is also credible. Salaries for ground staff are in the range of INR 25k to 65k initially. It keeps increasing as you rouse in hierarchy.
