TRAINING OVERVIEW

General Familiarisation

These courses are intended for management and general staff members and are non-Part 147 theoretical courses at the EASA Part 66 Level 1 level. They give a brief description of the operation, location and maintenance aspects of all aircraft systems.

Type Training

The Type Training provides an approved and acknowledged standard of knowledge of the aircraft and its systems to the levels required in EASA Part 66 Annex III. This training includes theoretical knowledge, simulator practice, and real-world experience.

Refresher Courses

This non-Part 147 course is designed for aircraft maintenance engineers to provide an overview of all aspects of the aircraft, Airframe/Power-plant/Electrical Systems and Avionics System, delivered to ATA specification 104 level 1.

Understanding & Benefits

B1 and B2 Licenses

The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) Part-66 regulation establishes two main categories for aircraft maintenance engineer licenses, serving as the foundation for many global standards: B1 -Mechanical and B2 -Avionics.

B1 -Mechanical: This category focuses on the aircraft's structure, engines (power-plant), and mechanical/electrical systems, including hydraulics, fuel, and landing gear. B1 engineers are qualified to perform and certify a wide range of maintenance tasks within these areas.
B2-Avionics: This category specialises in electronic and avionic systems, encompassing communication, navigation, flight control, radar, and instrumentation. B2 engineers possess expertise in diagnostics and troubleshooting of complex digital systems.

Modern aircraft seamlessly integrate mechanical and electronic systems, necessitating that technicians possess a comprehensive understanding of both areas to effectively troubleshoot complex, interconnected issues. The "combined theory" training offers several benefits:

Comprehensive Knowledge: Rather than pursuing each license separately, a combined course encompasses the theoretical knowledge requirements for both B1 and B2 certifications within a single, integrated program.

Type Ratings: Combined B1/B2 courses are commonly available for specific aircraft type ratings (such as Boeing 737 or Embraer jets), providing detailed practical and theoretical knowledge of the systems of a specific aircraft model for certifying personnel.

By obtaining a combined B1/B2 certification, an aircraft maintenance engineer gains a holistic understanding of the aircraft as an interconnected system, encompassing its physical structure, engines, and digital systems.

Enhanced Employability: Engineers holding both B1 and B2 licenses are in high demand among airlines and maintenance organisations (MROs), as they can perform a broader range of tasks, thereby enhancing their career opportunities and earning potential.

Increased Efficiency: Although certain modules are specific to either B1 or B2, many foundational modules (such as Mathematics, Physics, Aviation Legislation, and Human Factors) are identical across both categories. Combined courses optimise the training process, resulting in significant time and cost savings compared to pursuing training sequentially.
