Employability Skills | |||
Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit of competency requires application of hand skills, theory knowledge and maintenance publication procedures to repair and overhaul aircraft piston engine crankcase assembly components.Applications include components from fixed and rotary wing aircraft piston engines. Work can be performed individually or as a member of a team.The unit is part of the Mechanical Certificate IV (Component Workshop 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). | ||
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 documentation. It is also expected that general purpose tools and test equipment found in most routine situations would be used where appropriate Knowledge of crankcase assembly operation and the relationship of individual components will be necessary to supplement evidence of ability to troubleshoot component faults 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 of the unit of competency and the performance criteria are being achieved under routine supervision on at least one (1) item from each of the following groups: crankshaft, gears, con rods and counterweights camshaft, hydraulic tappets/cam followers and gears propeller shaft, reduction drive gear and quill shaft component gear drives/trains crankcase castings, bearings, component mounting pads and studs oil system components supercharger and turbocharger components (may be omitted where not applicable to the enterprise) propeller governor (may be omitted where not applicable to the enterprise) 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). |
