Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

Required documentation is accurately completed and correctly processed in accordance with enterprise procedures

Evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria under the specified conditions of assessment, and must include:

applying relevant WHS procedures, including the use of MSDS and PPE

using enterprise procedures, approved maintenance documentation and aircraft publications relating to aircraft sheet metal components

identifying various aircraft metals used for sheet metal components and their basic metallurgy properties by interpretation of markings, numbering systems or visual, chemical or mechanical means

handling and storing aircraft metals used for sheet metal components, including sealing agents, to industry standards

identifying aircraft sheet metal assembly fasteners (metal and non-metallic) by interpretation of markings, numbering systems, size, shape and colour

correctly interpreting, modification drawings and hand sketches

using appropriate hand tools and machines to fit avionic modification sheet metal components to the aircraft

freehand precision hole generation

applying corrosion prevention techniques during component fitment

restoring sealing and surface finishes.

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 assembly.

Evidence of knowledge about enterprise procedures relating to avionic modification incorporation and practices relating to associated sheet metal component installation will be necessary to supplement evidence of ability to fit a range of sheet metal components in a specific application.

Evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria and include knowledge of:

aircraft sheet metal component construction principles

identification of primary, secondary and tertiary structure

aircraft sheet metal assembly fasteners, their characteristics and identification

fits and clearances for fasteners

fitting methods for fasteners

use of grip pins

corrosion of aircraft structure and its prevention

application of surface finishes

relevant WHS procedures

how to obtain MSDS

use of PPE.
