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!

MEAMEC0076 - Test aircraft piston engines after repair or overhaul

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Prepare piston engine for test run

  1. Check documentation to ensure that engine is ready for testing
  2. Install engine in test rig or test cell, including connection of fuel, oil and electrical supplies and instrumentation while observing relevant work health and safety (WHS) procedures, including the use of material safety data sheets (MSDSs) and personal protective equipment (PPE)
  3. Fill sump or external oil tank with correct grade and type of lubricating oil
  4. Fill test rig or cell fuel tank with correct type and grade of fuel
  5. Fit correct propeller or club to the engine
  6. Prepare test rig or cell for operation
Check documentation to ensure that engine is ready for testing
