Aircraft Maintenance Engineering (AME)
AME Course Details
AME (Aircraft maintenance engineering) Course at IIAE (Indian Institute of Aircraft Engineering) is now CAR-147(BASIC) compliant. IIAE is one of the best DGCA Approved AME colleges in India in license category B1.1 which covers heavy aircraft and turbine engine to be known as Mechanical stream and category B2 which covers aircraft electrical instrumentation and aircraft communication and navigation system to be known as Avionics stream.
For issue of B1.1 and B2 AME license one has to undergo an approved training program from DGCA which is Change to CAR 147 (Basic) which has duration of two years. During these two years of academic training which covers 2400 hours of theoretical and practical leaning including 30% of practical on job training on any CAR 145 approved organization on flying aircraft.
By obtaining B1.1 & B2 license of AME the holder of these license are entitled to exercise its authority to carry out:
- The minor inspection (Line Maintenance)
- Maintenance and repair of different parts of an aircraft (major maintenance).
The four years programme is divided in two parts:
- Approved academic programme under CAR-147(Basic) : 2 years
- Practical maintenance experience requirements on flying aircraft : 2 years
IIAE - Best aircraft maintenance engineering colleges in India approved by DGCA
Approved Academic Programme Under CAR-147 (Basic)
The academic programme is divided into four semesters covering 2400 hours of theoretical and practical training in 2 years duration for both B1.1 and B2 stream. Out of 2400 hours of training, 1440 hours will be devoted in classroom teaching and 960 hours will be devoted for Practical training. Out of 960 hours of practical training, i.e. 30% will be conducted in actual maintenance environment at AMO (Aircraft Maintenance Organization). For this, IIAE has entered into long term legal contract with M/S SAURYA AREONOTCS PVT.LTD., New Delhi, for all the practical training required to be imparted on flying aircraft under CAR-147(Basic) programme.
The academic programme conducted by IIAE is fully approved under CAR-147 (Basic) requirements along with approved curriculum by DGCA. The entire theoretical and practical programme covers four semesters containing the following subjects and their teaching and training schedule as given below:
MECHANICAL STREAM :
- The mechanical stream in AME – 147(basic) program refers to aircraft structure, airframe and powerplant system
- To become an AME of mechanical stream an individual has to undergo ideally 2 years of academic training to cover
- various types of aircraft which essentially covers
- Turbine powered heavy aircraft(A1 & B1.1)
- Piston engine aircraft above 2000 kg (A2 & B1.2)
- Turbine powered helicopter (A3 & B1.3)
- Piston engine powered helicopter (A4 & B1.4)
- Piston engine aircraft below 2000 kg (B3 category)
- Each of the above category aircraft has separate specialties and usually covered by separate licensing requirements
