Narrative:
While taxiing on taxiway C at mke; the mechanic I was training asked where the non movement area boundary markings are. After looking for them; we agreed there is no movement area boundary line on taxiway C at mke. The missing boundary line could cause dangerous sits to occur. Fuel trucks; line maintenance trucks; and security vehicles could get onto the movement area; and not even realize it; because of the missing line. The airport needs to have these lines painted at all of the movement area boundaries; not just some of them.
