(a) Performance Evidence

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

• Accessing and interpreting information from industry manuals, including paper-based, microfiche or computer-based media, relating to work activities, includes determination of manual amendment status, knowledge of manual structures and locating relevant information/instructions for work activity.

• Amending industry manuals to reflect current/approved amendment status.

• Identifying and interpreting information from drawings and diagrams in aircraft maintenance manuals, including component scaling, section, assembly, location, drawing applicability and amendment status from the title block.

• Correct handling and storage of drawings, manuals and industry media, i.e. microfiche and digital formats.

• Calculating allowable dimension variations on a component from information in drawing title blocks and drawings.

• Calculating dimensions from drawings for the purpose of manufacturing aircraft components and hardware. The transferability of general manual interpretation and use in accordance with relevant aircraft publications/maintenance regulations/orders and standards and practices must be clearly established. Evidence of underlying knowledge and skills associated with the interpretation and use of manuals is required to supplement understanding of the structure and regulatory requirements associated with the aircraft maintenance environment in this area.

(b) Knowledge Evidence

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:

• The types of industry manuals used in aviation maintenance and types of media.

• Requirements for custody and upkeep of industry manuals.

• Techniques for obtaining and applying data contained in industry manuals.

This field allows for different work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included. 

Appropriate manuals include:     

• Aircraft publications, maintenance instruction manuals, process specifications, servicing or service bulletins or structural repair manuals.

• Tooling or equipment manuals, manufacturer's manuals, standard practices, enterprise aviation regulations and publications .

• Illustrated parts catalogues, aircraft wiring manuals or drawings.

Statutory regulations and/or enterprise procedures include:     

• Civil Aviation Regulations (CARs) or Civil Aviation Safety Regulations (CASRs) .

• Applicable Defence Regulations and instructions.

• Maintenance organisation manuals

• Standing instructions.

•  The assessment are compose of paper exams , interviews, and practical demonstrations, which the paper exam is the main testing. The selection of interviews and practical demonstrations are depending on the assessors’ judgment.

•  Competency should be assessed in the work environment, or by use of simulated activities, covering the interpretation and use of enterprise aviation manuals, aircraft publications, process sheets, specifications and drawings applicable to the aircraft maintenance environment.

•  This unit must be linked in its assessment and application to those that apply to the actual maintenance of aircraft.

•  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 at least one manual from each of the following groups of publications:

•  Aircraft publications, maintenance instruction manuals, process specifications, servicing or service bulletins or structural repair manuals.

•  Tooling or equipment manuals, manufacturer's manuals, standard practices, enterprise aviation regulations and publications.

•  Illustrated parts catalogues, aircraft wiring manuals or drawings.

•  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 Implementation Guide).
