Course Description

The REALcase concept utilizes fleet operational data/information that is acquired from the manufacturer and/or operators, spanning the 12 to 18-month period preceding the course. Information relevant to the operation, maintenance and troubleshooting of the aircraft, is presented during the course for review, analysis, and discussion. Emphasis is placed on applicable maintenance considerations, manufacturer recommendations, troubleshooting and dispatch decisions.

Objectives

  • Better understand the latest in-service difficulties and/or operational issues experienced by fleet operators and reported to the OEM
  • Understand and apply the latest manufacturer’s documentation, recommendations, and operational maintenance procedures
  • (When applicable) be acquainted with recent engine Service Bulletins, Service Information Letters, Enhancements / Options, Services Advisories, etc. pertaining to this engine
  • Have increased technical understanding of the aircraft’s core systems (with additional emphasis on particular systems the student may wish to focus on)
  • Better understand and troubleshoot and/or isolate failures of specific systems or components in accordance with maintenance procedures and applicable documentation
Subject
ATA

Course Description

This maintenance course will help technicians understand the aircraft systems, servicing, and practical know-how to maintain the aircraft properly. The course is for the technician who has similar aircraft experience, yet also for the manager or scheduler who wants a better understanding of the aircraft.

If the aircraft is available, actual hands-on practices will be conducted to ensure a complete understanding of aircraft systems and “real-world” maintenance practices.

Objectives

The Familiarization course provides the applicant with a general description of the aircraft capabilities, systems, avionics, power plant, maintenance, and support requirements.

This class offers an excellent way to extend technician productivity.

Subject
ATA

Course Description

The Avionics course furnishes the experienced aircraft technician with information pertaining to operation of the display, communication, navigation (short-range and long-range), and the automatic flight control (flight guidance) systems. It provides sufficient working knowledge of these systems to allow the technician to participate in troubleshooting at the line maintenance level.

All training is conducted to Level 3, according to ATA specification 104. A good understanding of basic avionics is suggested. (CAE also offers 40-hour classes in each of the following: Avionics Essentials Part I and Part II.)

 

Objectives

After completion of this Avionics course, the student should be able to:

  • Use and interpret the appropriate technical publications
  • Describe the purpose and interfaces of each system and associated components
  • Explain the operation of each main system and associated components
  • Identify and locate the major components associated with each system
  • Identify, locate and describe the system controls and indications
  • Troubleshoot and isolate failures of specific systems or components
Subject
ATA

Course Description

This course is a combination of recurrent, in-depth troubleshooting practices, and tracing wiring diagrams. We employ a “white glove” approach where the majority of investigative work can be performed without using tools. Troubleshooting is performed from the cockpit level, using indication messages, support documentation, and wiring diagrams.

This is an intensive session with active classroom participation and considered an essential course for all proactive technicians familiar with the aircraft.

Objectives

This course provides the student with in-depth instruction on aircraft’s electrical system and its interface with other aircraft systems. CAE furnishes the experienced technician with information to carry out troubleshooting and test procedures necessary to maintain the aircraft electrical systems. The course is based on the use of the manufacturers maintenance manuals and wiring diagrams, SmartFix Plus (SFP), synoptic pages, and the Maintenance Diagnostic Computer (MDC) to verify system status and isolate faults.

Subject
ATA

Course Description

The line maintenance course is a condensed session enabling technicians to understand aircraft systems and servicing with an emphasis on practical experience to build aircraft maintenance skills. This training differs from the traditional Maintenance Initial in that it is designed to be a more focused curriculum for technicians that may already have initial exposure and/or experience on the particular aircraft.

Moderate troubleshooting is stressed and reinforced with actual hands-on sessions on available aircraft. Active student participation provides a better understanding of aircraft systems and effective maintenance practices. For operations with technician scheduling and cost limitations, this option creates a highly productive solution.

Objectives

After completion of this Line Maintenance course, the student should be able to:

  • Use and interpret the appropriate technical publications
  • Describe the purpose and interfaces of each system and associated components
  • Explain the operation of each main system and associated components
  • Identify and locate the major components associated with each system
  • Identify, locate, and describe the system controls and indications
  • Troubleshoot and isolate failures of specific systems or components
Subject
ATA

Course Description

This course describes and explains the OEM’s recommended approach as it pertains to operational maintenance procedures and best practices pertaining to aircraft system troubleshooting. The student will learn how to identify and understand the maintenance fault isolation procedures and techniques utilized during aircraft troubleshooting activities and/or dispatch decision making.

By combining or integrating this course with an aircraft refresher type class, it enables the student to practice these analytical process techniques with this specific aircraft type.

Objectives

After completion of this scenario-based Troubleshooting course, the student should be able to:

  • Describe various aircraft troubleshooting analytical approaches
  • Perform in-depth circuit analysis and utilize OEM data relevant to aircraft troubleshooting
  • Describe the operation of aircraft onboard maintenance diagnostic system (as applied in class)
  • Enact a plan of action during troubleshooting activities

Objectives

After completion of this Engine Run and Taxi Initial Course, the student should be able to:

  • Identify and use appropriate aircraft documentation
  • Safely operate the aircraft as pertaining to engine starting and shutdown, including relevant pre-engine run safety precautions
  • Safely perform any aircraft system emergency procedures as pertaining to engine and/or APU operation
  • Perform aircraft ground handling and aircraft operations related to taxiing the aircraft in an active airport environment
  • Address and contain aircraft malfunctions as pertaining to systems associated with either aircraft taxing and/or engine and/or APU operations, while maintaining situational awareness concerning the active airport environment in which these operations may be performed
