AMC 147.A.300 Aircraft type task training

CAA ORS9 Decision No. 1

Aircraft type training may be sub-divided in airframe and/or powerplant and/or avionics/electrical systems type training courses. A maintenance training organisation approved under Part-147 may be approved to conduct airframe type training only, powerplant type training only, avionics/electrical systems type training only or any combination thereof.

1. Airframe type training course means a type training course including all relevant aircraft structure and electrical and mechanical systems excluding the powerplant.

2. Powerplant type training course means a type training course on the bare engine, including the build-up to a quick engine change unit.

3. The interface of the engine/airframe systems should be addressed by either airframe or powerplant type training. In some cases, such as for general aviation, it may be more appropriate to cover the interface during the airframe course due to the large variety of aircraft that can have the same engine type installed.

4. Avionics/electrical systems type training course means type training on avionics and electrical systems covered by but not necessarily limited to ATA (Air Transport Association) chapters 22, 23, 24, 25, 27, 31, 33, 34, 42, 44, 45, 46, 73 and 77 or equivalent.
