AMSInstitute

Aerospace Maintenance Systems Institute (AMSInstitute) is an aviation training and safety organization based in Lakeland, Florida. It focuses on preparing applicants for the FAA Airframe and Powerplant (A&P) mechanic certification examinations, including written and oral/practical tests. The institute describes its approach as personalized, with very small classes and, in many cases, one-to-one discussions led by a trainer with former NTSB and FAA inspector experience. Its instruction emphasizes understanding the testing process and applying maintenance practices that help prevent errors, defects, and accidents.

Beyond A&P test preparation, AMSInstitute offers tailwheel endorsement training in a Citabria 7ECA and shares expertise in Safety Management Systems (SMS) to support safer aviation operations. The organization presents aircraft maintenance as a safety-critical discipline, connecting sound maintenance management with the protection of people and aircraft. It has also supported the Reno Air Racer “Precious Metal” and is professionally affiliated with Coleman Aeromarine, Inc. AMSInstitute states that it has temporarily suspended all services while reconfiguring the company; it indicates that updates will be provided from its Lakeland facility when it is ready to resume.
