Aircraft Maintenance Understanding the FARs

Aircraft Maintenance Technology is a large field with many opportunities inside and even outside of aviation. It is no wonder that many people want to get their Airframe and/or Powerplant rating (A&P) and begin working in this ever growing field.

You were a mechanic in the military and you want to work on civilian aircraft as an FAA certified A&P. You will need to know your Federal Aviation Regulation (FAR).

You will know key terms, the dispensation of documents, your privileges and limitation under your rating, major and minor repairs and alterations along with many other important topics.

The course will be structured with lectures and Powerpoints over section in the FAR AMT book. Students will also be expected to do some independent reading. The FAR AMT book is required for this course and is a book I recommend keeping throughout your career.

We will also take a step back from the Title 14 CFR and explore FAA.GOV and how to find important documentation you will have to be familiar with.
