Elements and Performance Criteria

1. Prepare to perform routine repairs and minor modifications to aircraft internal fittings
   • Applicable repair scheme is determined in accordance with applicable maintenance publications and enterprise procedures
   • All required materials and equipment are selected and organised in accordance with enterprise procedures and maintenance publications
2. Perform routine repairs to aircraft internal fittings
   • Sheetmetal repairs and non-metallic material repairs are performed in accordance with approved repair scheme, ensuring that aircraft standard practices are used and standard process requirements are carried out
   • Work area is cleaned of all waste material
   • Adjustments are made, where necessary, for components to operate within prescribed specifications
3. Complete routine repair activities
   • Required documentation is accurately completed and correctly processed in accordance with enterprise procedures

Required Skills

Required skills

Look for evidence that confirms skills in applying relevant OHS procedures including the use of MSDS and PPE using enterprise procedures approved maintenance documentation and aircraft publications relating to aircraft sheetmetal and nonmetallic internal fittings identifying various materials used for internal fittings and their basic properties by interpretation of markings numbering systems or visual chemical or mechanical means handling and storing aircraft metals used for sheetmetal internal fittings including sealing agents to industry standards identifying aircraft sheet metal assembly fasteners metal and nonmetallic by interpretation of markings numbering systems size shape and colour correctly interpreting applicable repair schemes and hand sketches using appropriate hand tools and power tools under supervision to remove and assemble aircraft sheet metal internal fittings performing under guidance and in accordance with enterprise procedures a range of routine metal and nonmetal repair techniques applying corrosion removaltreatment techniques restoring sealing and surface finishes to repaired areas

Required knowledge

Look for evidence that confirms knowledge of relevant OHS procedures how to obtain relevant MSDS the use of applicable items of PPE aircraft sheet metal component construction principles and repair techniques aircraft nonmetallic component construction principles and repair techniques

Evidence Required

The Evidence Guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria required skills and knowledge range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package
Overview of assessment	A person who demonstrates competency in this unit must be able to apply hand skills and use maintenance publications to repair aircraft internal fittings made from sheet metal and nonmetallic materials while applying all relevant safety precautions
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit	The underlying skills inherent in this unit should be transferable into other areas that require similar techniques It is essential that procedures take into account all safety precautions and quality requirements standards and practices and processes associated with repair and assembly Evidence of knowledge about enterprise procedures relating to basic repair techniques and the use of the standard repair manualpractices in a range of different routine repair situations will be necessary to supplement evidence of ability to plan and undertake internal fitting repairs A person cannot be assessed as competent until it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the workplace assessor that the relevant elements of the unit of competency are being achieved under supervision but without intervention on a representative range of tasks involving Groups to listed in the Range Statement This shall be established via the records in the Log of Industrial Experience and Achievement or where appropriate an equivalent Industry Evidence Guide
Context of and specific resources for assessment	Competency should be assessed in the 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
