union, that union is AMFA The Constitution of AMFA provides
democracy to the membership and protects the right s of its
members both individually and collectively. One of the main
objectives of the association is to protect and promote the
interests of our profession, to raise the recognition of aircraft
technicians. The difference in AMFA is that this union was created
