Classes held here:
206 Powerplant Systems and Propellers
This course is designed to develop the skills to inspect, troubleshoot, and repair powerplant systems of lubrication, engine cooling, engine exhaust systems, fire protection systems for both reciprocating and turbine engines and propellers and their associated systems.
262 Turbine Engines
This course is designed to provide a complete foundation of the principles and theorems behind the airflow pressures, velocities, temperatures, and supporting systems of gas turbine engines.
Maintenance, inspection, and testing of turbine engines and components are practiced.
264 Engine Installation and Troubleshooting
The focus of this course is to bring together the student’s knowledge of powerplants and their systems, and use that knowledge together with good logic, common sense, and troubleshooting skills to solve and repair a wide variety of engine problems.
Students will learn to perform specific ignition and fuel system tests and checks, identify and understand the indications and instrument readings of properly operating engine systems, and be able to perform and interpret the results of a cylinder compression test.
Students will use proper repair methods and techniques to remedy engine problems. Students will also remove, install, rig, operate and test both reciprocating and turbine engines in test-cell as well as aircraft environments.
266 Aircraft Inspection
The focus of this course will be the performance of a complete 100-hour inspection of an aircraft, including attention to current FAA regulations and correct completion of required maintenance record documentation.
During inspection, students will learn assembly, rigging, alignment checks, and corrections. Balancing of flight control surfaces will be studied and practiced.
