Look for evidence that confirms skills in: application of relevant OH&S procedures the use of approved maintenance documentation and aircraft publications relating to aircraft structure identifying various aircraft metals and their basic metallurgy properties by interpretation of markings, numbering systems or visual, chemical or mechanical means identifying various aircraft composite materials and their basic properties by interpretation of markings and visual means handling and storing aircraft metals and composite materials including sealing agents, to industry standards identifying aircraft structural assembly fasteners (metal and composite) by interpretation of markings, numbering systems, size, shape and colour correctly interpret and /or produce repair scheme/modification drawings (including third angle projection, isometric, sectional formats and hand sketches) using appropriate hand tools and machines to remove and assemble aircraft structural components, parts, sections and skin including riveting equipment, drilling equipment, aligning tools and material fasteners (grip pins) applying correct removal, installation and repair techniques for: a range of rivets (blind and solid) using hand, squeeze and pneumatic situations a range of close tolerance fasteners (standard and oversize - hilocks, taper locks) including hole preparation threaded devices including internal and external thread cutting, helicoil inserts and damaged stud replacement hardware assembled by close tolerance fits using heat, cooling and force methods, including bearings, bushes and inserts correct support of the aircraft structure by jacking, trestling and/or jigging methods performing a range of metal structure and composite material repair techniques including: metal scab patch, flush, splice, lap and formed section repair composite external patch repairs metal to metal and metal to composite bonding applying structural corrosion removal/treatment techniques restoring aircraft structure sealing and surface finishes
