Employability Skills | |||
Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit of competency requires application of hand skills and the use of maintenance publications to inspect for damage and repair aircraft non-primary structure metallic and non-metallic components of fixed and rotary wing aircraft cabins and cockpits during the performance of scheduled or unscheduled maintenance. Work may be performed individually or as part of a team.This unit is part of the Aeroskills Life Support and Furnishing Certificate III and IV training pathways. 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). | ||
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 by aircraft maintenance manuals. It is also expected that general-purpose tools, test and ground support equipment found in most routine situations would be used where appropriate. 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 on a representative range of components, inspecting for damage and performing repair tasks, as follows: metallic component repairs involving: removing corrosion by chemical and mechanical methods restoring protective coatings freehand precision hole generation removing and installing fastening devices fitting patches to cabin/cockpit non-primary structure sheet metal components non-metallic component repairs involving: composite patch, scarf and stepped repairs using fibreglass, sandwich honeycomb, nylon, Perspex, nomex core materials and matrix resins. 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). |
