Employability Skills | |||
Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit of competency requires application of hand skills and the use of maintenance documentation/publications in the removal and installation of basic radio communication and navigation system components of fixed and rotary wing aircraft that have basic radio communication and navigation systems, during scheduled or unscheduled maintenance. Work may be performed individually or as part of a team.The unit is part of the Avionic Certificate IV (Aircraft Maintenance Stream) training pathway. The unit is used in workplaces that operate under the airworthiness regulatory systems of the Australian Defence Force (ADF) and the Civil Aviation safety Authority (CASA). Where a CASA licensing outcome is sought this unit forms part of the CASA requirement for the granting of the chosen maintenance certification licence under Civil Aviation Safety Regulation (CASR) Part 66, in accordance with the licensing provisions in the Companion Volume Implementation Guide. | ||
Duration and Setting | X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting. Competency should be assessed in the work environment or simulated work environment, using tools and equipment specified in maintenance manuals. It is also expected that general-purpose tools, test and ground support equipment found in most routine maintenance situations would be used where appropriate. An understanding of the attachment methods, connection of hardware, and the need for adjustment or calibration and system operation as they relate to the work must be demonstrated before undertaking any action. The work plan should take account of applicable safety and quality requirements in accordance with the industry and regulatory standards. The following conditions of assessment represent the requirements of the Regulators (ADF and CASA) and maintenance stakeholders and must be rigorously observed. A person cannot be assessed as competent until it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the workplace assessor that the relevant elements and performance criteria of the unit of competency are being achieved under routine supervision on at least one (1) item from each of: HF and VHF communication and applicable antennas ADF and VOR navigation and applicable antennas ELT. This shall be established via the records in the Log of Industrial Experience and Achievement or, where appropriate, an equivalent Industry Evidence Guide (for details refer to the Companion Volume Assessment Guidelines). Assessors must satisfy the requirements of the National Vocational Education and Training Regulator (Australian Skills Quality Authority, or its successors).must satisfy National Vocational Education and Training Regulator (NVR)/Australian Quality Training Framework (AQTF) assessor requirements. Where the unit is to be used for CASA licensing purposes the Assessor must also meet the criteria specified in the CASR Part 147 Manual of Standards. Individuals being assessed who have already attained MEA207 Remove and install aircraft electronic system components will have covered a significant amount of the skill and knowledge requirements for this unit plus part of the performance criteria for Elements 1 and 2 and associated range of conditions items. Those who have attained MEA276 Maintain basic light aircraft communication and radio navigation systems and components, or MEA289A Maintain basic light aircraft avionic systems and components, will have fully covered the requirements for this unit in common variables in the Range of Conditions. The Log of Industrial Experience and Achievement records relating to MEA207 Remove and install aircraft electronic system components, MEA276 Maintain basic light aircraft communication and radio navigation systems and components and MEA289A Maintain basic light aircraft avionic systems and components may be accepted as also meeting the evidence requirements for this unit in the applicable areas. |
