Basic knowledge examination standard

1 Standardisation basis for examinations

1.1 Unless otherwise approved within the CASA approved exposition course syllabus, all basic examinations must be carried out using the multi-choice question format and essay questions as specified below. The incorrect alternatives must seem equally plausible to anyone ignorant of the subject. All of the alternatives should be clearly related to the question and of similar vocabulary, grammatical construction and length. In numerical questions, the incorrect answers should correspond to procedural errors such as corrections applied in the wrong sense or incorrect unit conversions: they must not be mere random numbers.

1.2 Each multi-choice question must have 3 alternative answers of which only 1 must be the correct answer and the candidate must be allowed a time per module which is based upon a nominal average of 75 seconds per question.

1.3 Each essay question requires the preparation of a written answer and the candidate must be allowed 20 minutes to answer each such question.

1.4 Suitable essay questions must be drafted and evaluated using the knowledge syllabus in Part 66, Appendix I, Modules 7, 9 and 10.

1.5 Each question will have a model answer drafted for it, which will also include any known alternative answers that may be relevant for other subdivisions.

1.6 The model answer will also be broken down into a list of important points known as Key Points.

1.7 The pass mark for each Part 66 module and sub-module multi-choice part of the examination is 75%. The number of consecutive attempts for each module is 3. Further sets of 3 attempts are allowed, with a minimum 1 year waiting period between sets.

1.8 The pass mark for each essay question is 75% in that the candidate’s answer must contain 75% of the required key points addressed by the question and no significant error related to any required key point.

1.9 If either the multi-choice part or the essay part is failed, then it is only necessary to retake the multi-choice or essay part, as appropriate.

1.10 Penalty marking systems must not be used to determine whether a candidate has passed.

1.11 All Part 66 modules that make up a complete Part 66 aircraft maintenance licence category or subcategory must be passed within a 10 year time period of passing the first module except in the case specified in subclause 1.12. A failed module may not be retaken for at least 90 days following the date of the failed module examination, except in the case of an MTO which conducts a course of retraining tailored to the failed subjects in the particular module when the failed module may be retaken after 30 days.

1.12 The 10 year time period mentioned in subclause 1.11 does not apply to those modules which are common to more than one Part 66 aircraft maintenance licence category or subcategory and which were previously passed as part of another such category or subcategory examination.

1.13 Any variation to the examination standard must be approved by CASA.

Course objectives:

On completion of the course, the student will be able to:

(a) provide a simple description of the whole subject, using common words, examples, and typical terms, and identify safety precautions related to the airframe, its systems and powerplant; and

(b) identify aircraft manuals, and maintenance practices important to the airframe, its systems and powerplant; and

(d) define the general layout and characteristics of the powerplant; and

(e) identify special tooling and test equipment used with the aircraft.

Level 2

Basic system overview of controls, indicators, principal components – including their location and purpose – servicing and minor troubleshooting, general knowledge of the theoretical and practical aspects of the subject.

Course objectives:

In addition to the information contained in the Level 1 training, at the completion of Level 2 training, the student will be able to:

(a) understand the theoretical fundamentals, and apply knowledge in a practical manner using detailed procedures; and

(b) recall the safety precautions to be observed when working on or near the aircraft, powerplant and systems; and

(d) identify the locations of the principal components; and

(e) explain the normal functioning of each major system, including terminology and nomenclature; and

(f) perform the procedures for servicing associated with the aircraft for the following systems: fuel, powerplants, hydraulics, landing gear, water/waste and oxygen; and

(b) perform system, powerplant, component, and functional checks as specified in the aircraft maintenance manual; and

(c) demonstrate the use of, interpret, and apply appropriate documentation, including structural repair manual, and troubleshooting manual; and

(d) correlate information for the purpose of making decisions in respect of fault diagnosis and rectification to maintenance manual level; and

(e) describe procedures for replacement of components unique to aircraft type.

Part 2 — Type training theoretical elements

Although aircraft type training includes both theoretical and practical elements, courses can be approved for the theoretical element, the practical element or for a combination of both.

Theoretical element

1 Objective:

On completion of a theoretical training course, the student must be able to demonstrate, to the levels identified in the Appendix III syllabus, the detailed theoretical knowledge of the aircraft’s applicable systems, structure, operations, maintenance, repair, and troubleshooting according to approved maintenance data. The student must be able to demonstrate the use of manuals and approved procedures, including the knowledge of relevant inspections and limitations.

2 Level of training:

Training levels are those levels defined in Part 1 above. After the first type course for Category C certifying staff, all subsequent courses need only be to Level 1. During a Level 3 theoretical training, Level 1 and Level 2 training material may be used to teach the full scope of the chapter if required. However, during the training the majority of the course material and training time must be at the higher level.

3 Duration:

The theoretical training minimum tuition hours are contained in the following table:

	Category	Hours
Aeroplanes with a maximum take‑off mass above 30 000 kg	B1.1	150
	B1.2	120
	B2	100
	C	30
Aeroplanes with a maximum take‑off mass equal to, or less than, 30 000 kg and above 5 700 kg	B1.1	120
	B1.2	100
	B2	100
	C	25
Large helicopters	B1.3	120
	B2	100
	C	25

(a) For the purpose of the table above, tuition hour means 60 minutes of teaching and excludes any breaks, examination, revision, preparation and aircraft visits.

(b) Hours prescribed in the table above apply only to theoretical courses for complete aircraft/engine combinations according to the type rating as defined by CASA.

Minimum participation time is at least 90% of the tuition hours of the theoretical training course. Additional training may be given by the training organisation in order to meet the minimum participation time. The number of tuition hours per day for the theoretical training must not exceed 8 hours, which must be performed during regular office hours; in exceptional cases, deviation from this standard may be envisaged when justified. This maximum number of hours is also applicable for the combination of theoretical and practical training, when they are performed at the same time.

4 Justification of course duration:

When applying for approval of a Part 147 course, or a course to be approved directly by CASA, the proposed hour duration must be justified and shown to cover the full syllabus by a training needs analysis based on:

(a) the design of the aircraft type, its maintenance needs and the types of operation; and

(b) detailed analysis of applicable chapters – see contents table below; and

(d) information based on approved type design, if necessary.

Tuition hours of differences courses, and other training course combinations, such as combined B1/B2 courses, must be justified to CASA by the training needs analysis as described above.

5 Content:
As a minimum, the elements in the syllabus below, that are specific to the aircraft type, must be covered. Additional elements introduced due to type variations, technological changes etc. must also be included. The training syllabus should be focused on mechanical, powerplant, structural and electrical aspects for B1 personnel, and electrical and avionic aspects for B2.

Part 3 — Practical elements

1 The representative cross-section of maintenance activities mentioned in section 66.A.50 may include training in maintenance of the aircraft, rigging, adjustments, replacement of line replaceable units, troubleshooting, rectification of minor defects and testing of systems covering each element of the course.

2 The structured OJT practical element of type training may include targeted experience recorded within a schedule of experience or competency-based assessment of a schedule of practical tasks.

3 Irrespective of how the practical training element is conducted, it must consist of the performance of representative maintenance tasks drawn from the type training and examination syllabus, at the indicated level, and their assessment in order to meet the following objectives:

(a) ensure safe performance of maintenance, inspections and routine work according to the maintenance manual and other relevant instructions and tasks as appropriate for the type of aircraft, for example, troubleshooting, repairs, adjustments, replacements and functional checks;

(b) correctly use all technical literature and documentation for the aircraft;

(c) correctly use specialist and special tooling and test equipment, perform removal and replacement of components and modules unique to type, including any on‑wing maintenance activity.

Part 4

A Theory element — examination standard

Where aircraft type training is required, the examination must be written and comply with the following:

(a) Format of the examination is of the multiple-choice type. Each multi-choice question must have 3 alternative answers of which only 1 must be the correct answer. The time for answering is based upon a nominal average of 90 seconds per question.

(b) Alternative answers must seem equally possible to anyone with no knowledge of the subject. All of the alternatives should be clearly related to the question and of similar vocabulary, grammatical construction and length.

(c) In numerical questions, the incorrect answers must correspond to procedural errors such as the use of incorrect sense (+ versus -) or incorrect measurement units: they must not be mere random numbers.

(d) Subject to paragraph (j), the level of each question should be the one defined in Part 2 “type training standard”.

(e) The examination must be of the closed book type. No reference material is permitted. An exception will be made for the case of examining a B1 or B2 candidate’s ability to interpret technical documents.

(f) The number of questions must be at least 1 question per hour of instruction, with a minimum of 1 question per chapter. CASA will assess number and level of questions on a sampling basis when approving the course. The number of questions for each level must be consistent with the effective training hours spent teaching at that level.

(g) The minimum examination pass mark is 75%. When the type training examination is split into several examinations, each examination must be passed with at least a 75% pass mark. For it to be possible to achieve exactly a 75% pass mark, the number of questions in the examination must be a multiple of 4.

(h) Penalty marking is not to be used to determine whether a candidate has passed.

(i) End of module phase examinations cannot be used as part of the final examination unless they contain the correct number and level of questions required.

(j) It is accepted that during a Level 3 examination, Level 1 and Level 2 questions may be used to examine the full scope of the course material. However, during the examination it is not acceptable to use more than 25% of questions at any lower level such that the intention of the higher examination level is reduced.

Note Penalty marking means deducting marks for an incorrect answer.

B Practical element — assessment standard

1 For assessment of practical elements of type training, the assessment must be oral, written or practical assessment based, or a combination of all of these. Conduct of the assessment method must be in accordance with the AMO’s or MTO’s exposition.

2 Practical assessment must determine a person’s competence to perform a task based on a sample of subjects drawn from the type training and examination syllabus, at the indicated level.

3 A written report must be made by the assessor to explain why the candidate has passed or failed.

4 The assessment must ensure that the following objectives are met:

(a) accurately and confidently discuss the aircraft and its systems;

(b) ensure safe performance of maintenance, inspections and routine work according to the maintenance manual and other relevant instructions and tasks as appropriate for the type of aircraft, for example, troubleshooting, repairs, adjustments, replacements, rigging and functional checks such as engine run etc., if required;

(d) correctly use specialist and special tooling and test equipment, perform removal and replacement of components and modules unique to type, including any on‑wing maintenance activity.

Appendix IX See paragraphs 66.A.1 (c) and (d)

Type rated aircraft types and type rating endorsements for Category B1, B2 or C licences

Note Large aircraft (aeroplanes over 5 700 kg maximum take-off weight (MTOW), multi-engine helicopters, and aircraft (including, where appropriate, a particular engine type) that CASA has designated as requiring a type rating, generally form the basis of the type rated aircraft types listed in Appendix IX. CASA has also designated certain small aircraft and specific engines as requiring a type rating on the basis that, taking into account issues such as complexity, new technology, ATSB recommendations or other safety issues, type training will enhance aviation safety.

Table 1

Note These aeroplanes are large or designated as large — requiring type training and endorsement of type rating on the relevant licence category.
