One of the human resources that have great contribution in the smooth airline is the aircraft technicians who in charge of preparing aircraft in order to fly with a predetermined schedule. The objective of this research is to test the hypothesis that the self-concept is associated with aircraft technician performance. The sampling frame was taken as many as 80 people, 30 people to test instruments and 50 people for the study sample. From the analysis proved that the concept itself has a significant relationship with the performance of the aircraft technician. The test results obtained value of 5.768 t count > t table 2.682 at significant level  = 0.01 so that it can be concluded that the correlation coefficient between self-concept and performance of aircraft technicians are highly significant. There is a positive relationship between self-concept and performance of aircraft technicians. This means more and better self-concept, the higher aircraft technician performance.
