Employability Skills | |||
Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit of competency requires application of hand skills and the use of maintenance publications, applicable materials, tools and methods to repair aircraft composite skin surfaces during scheduled or unscheduled maintenance using bolted repair techniques. Work may involve individual and team-related activities.Applications include composite skin surfaces from fixed and rotary wing aircraft and aircraft components either on-aircraft or in the workshop.This unit of competency is part of the Aeroskills Structures Maintenance Certificate IV training pathway, and of the Mechanical Certificate IV (Aircraft Maintenance Stream) 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 workplace or simulated workplace. It is also expected that general-purpose tools and test equipment found in most routine situations would be used where appropriate. Evidence of knowledge about bolted repair techniques and the use of the standard repair manual in a range of different repair situations will be necessary to supplement evidence of ability to plan and undertake repair. 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 the application of repair patches in each of the following types of repair : external internal external/internal 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). 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. |
