3 Type/Task Training
The Type/Task Training Courses for the aircraft types as per 147.A.300 and PART
66 Appendix III which are included in the TC’s Part-147 Approval may cover:
1. The Theoretical elements only – as per TNA requirement – PART 2.19 refers
2. The Practical elements only
3. Both the Theoretical and the Practical elements
Theoretical and/or practical training courses and practical assessments are
conducted according to Procedure 2.19 of this PART.
Aircraft Type Examinations are conducted according to Procedure 2.20 of this PART
and only according to the specific list of courses approved by the DCA (as per
procedure 1.9 of this PART)
As per PART 2.19, particular emphasis is given on:
- TNA to justify the training hours duration and syllabus for the theoretical part
- Practical training duration and selected tasks
More specific details can be found under the relevant aircraft type training theoretical
and practical courses within CHAPTER 3 of the TPRM.
4. Other training courses (not under PART - 147 Approval)
The Continuation Training Programme, concerns the implementation of 145.A.35 (d)
requirement for a Part-145 AMO. IKAROS collects information from different AMOs
regarding technical issues for its aircraft types, changes of procedures, human
factors issues and other relevant subjects. The TC processes this information to
produce a continuation training course adapted to the specific AMO’s needs.
Component Maintenance and Specialised Training are approved training courses,
which are not included in the TC’s PART - 147 approval schedule, and are described
in the last Revision of LPM (General Courses and Component Training).
5. Successful completion of courses
A trainee’s absence from any training course must not exceed 10% of the total
duration of the course (90% attendance). If a trainee’s absence exceeds the above
limits, the TrM will decide if he must attend again the whole course or only the parts
of the course during which he had been absent.
Except of the above attendance conditions, trainees may have to take course
progress tests or a course final tests to establish successful attendance of a training
course. If a trainee fails such a test he may request a re-sit.
The above tests do not substitute the requirements of PART - 147 for the
approved basic or aircraft type, training and examinations. These are always
conducted by applying the associated procedures in this Part 2 of the MTOE,
and in accordance with Part-66 specifications.

2.1 ORGANISATION OF TRAINING COURSES

1. In general, the Accountable or TrM issue “Flyers” via emails, notifying potentially
interested persons or organisations of the planned courses and examinations
(Basic and/or Type). The interested parties respond by emailing or faxing or
hand delivering the Application for Examination (FORM IKTC – 43), accompanied
with a copy of their ID card or Passport to the administrator. Application form
should be filled in typing. In case an application form is filled in hand writing, the
administrator returns the form to the applicant and ask him/her to fill it in typing.
Administrator checks the form and verifies that it corresponds to the provided ID
document. Once the notification date as found on the Flyers is closed, the
administrator informs the Accountable and TrM of the interests. Then, the TrM
takes over as below:
2. When the TC receives a request for a training course that comes under its PART
- 147 approval, the TrM coordinates with the person(s) who placed the request to
verify that the proposed trainees have the prerequisites for the specific training
course as specified in Part-66, (e.g. credits for Basic training, previous type
training for a differences or a reduced type training course, previous experience
for practical type/task training, the form of practical training – instructor led, or
structured OJT - etc) and to establish the specific content and/or duration of the
course, as per the TC approval and in accordance with Part-66 specifications.
Note: For type/task practical training the applicants are encouraged to reach an
agreement on the duration and the content of the course with the
Competent Authority which will endorse the type rating, before the training
starts [see GM 66.A.45(d)].
3. Then assures that the necessary resources are, or will be, available in order to
conduct the course. These include:
a) Qualified instructors
b) Training course material
c) Appropriate training aids (if required for theoretical training)
d) Trainees’ training material
e) Classrooms (for theoretical training)
f) Workshops, tools and equipment (for practical training, if required)
g) Appropriate aircraft types (for practical training or for field trips during
theoretical training)
h) For aircraft types the field trips will be conducted on aircraft provided by the
customer or by any other operator (as agreed) at a location convenient for
the task.
4. Before any type/task practical training is organised the TrM ensures that the
specific aircraft type is available for the training duration. Otherwise, the practical
training is carried-out on a subcontractor’s aircraft.

PART 2
CENTER
5. The TrM prepares the training course schedule and assigns to each instructor
who will be involved in the course the specific chapters or modules He shall
teach in line with their duration and dates.
6. Adequate preparation time is given to the instructors to refresh on the subjects
they will teach. This, depending on the amount and the complexity of the
materialto be taught, may vary from a few days for subjects they have recently
taught, to longer periods for complex subjects they have not been teaching for
over six months.
7. Before the start of any training course, the Administrator issues a TO “Training
Order”. It contains the following information for the particular course:
a) Training Order serial number and date of issue
b) Course Title and Course Code
c) Instructor(s) and Trainees details
d) Organiser, Location, Duration and Dates of the course
e) Participants (trainees) names
The TO, is signed by the TrM and is circulated to the instructors and the trainees
in the course, and to respective IKAROS, or customer’s management personnel,
if requested.

2.4 PREPARATION OF WORKSHOPS, MAINTENANCE FACILITIES AND

EQUIPMENT
1. Basic or Type/Task practical training and/or assessments are carried out at

facilities where IKAROS has agreed and authorised access. An agreement shall
be made with the owned/user of the maintenance facilities. Such agreement shall
also ensure access to the facilities for the DCA.
2. In certain occasions, practical training and/or assessments may be performed at

remote Line or Base Stations, where the aircraft or material is readily available
and does conform to the scope. Also, practical training and/or assessments can
be carried out at either the customer’s, or at a subcontractor’s facility.
3. The instructor who is responsible for the organisation of practical

training/assessment generates a check list for the equipment, tools, test
equipment, documentation, etc., relative to the practical training, or assessment,
elements to be performed to ensure proper preparation of the practical training or
practical assessment.
4. For practical training and/or assessment conducted at a customer’s or a

subcontractor’s facility, the instructor who will perform the training must
coordinate with the customer or the subcontractor to ensure of the availability of
all necessary resources for the proper performance of the training.
5. When practical training and/or assessment is to be carried-out at a line station,

the TrM collaborates with the 145 organisation/airport authorities to arrange for
the instructor’s and the trainees’ accessibility to the aircraft. The instructor, who
will perform the training, cooperates with the station engineer(s) to organise it
and to ensure the availability of all the necessary equipment.
6. Whenever needed for the proper organisation of practical training or practical

assessment the responsible instructor(s) may visit the workshops and/or
maintenance facilities, before the actual performance of the training/assessment,
to become familiar with the equipment, including the specific aircraft type, if
necessary, and to ensure the proper completion of all preparations.
7. No practical training or practical assessment can be conducted unless all the

availability and functionality of all the necessary resources has been ensured.
Consequently no practical training or practical assessment can be conducted
unless the availability of the appropriate aircraft type is guaranteed. When
practical training is performed, the TrM collaborates with the Instructors to ensure
that the practical training and/or assessment is carried out according to the
training schedule and the list of tasks to be performed by the trainee(s). The TrM
assigns an instructor to the task of preparing the practical training or assessment.

training courses. The courses may cover knowledge (theoretical) training,
practical training or a combination of both.
2. The knowledge training element covers the relative for a category or subcategory
B1/B2 AML modules and level of training, as specified in Part-66. The training is
conducted in TC’s classrooms. Six hours of training are apportioned in every 8-
hour workday.
3. The duration of conversion courses between categories and/or subcategories will

be determined through an assessment of the basic training syllabus and the
related practical training experience, as per AMC 147.A.200(g) – TABLE 1 found
below paragraph 2.5.9 refers.
4. The principles of a BTC are applied in the cases of modular training, which is
based on candidates’ specific requests. In such cases, all the certificates, which
are issued, contain the appropriate statement regarding the training and/or
examinations, which have been undertaken.
5. The practical training element concerns Modules 7 and 11 to 17, as per GM

147.A.145 (d)(3), and covers the practical use of common tooling & equipment,
the disassembly & assembly of a representative selection of aircraft parts and the
participation in representative maintenance activities being carried out relevant to
the particular Part-66 complete module.
a) The duration of the practical element for each module is given in Table 2
PART 2.0 of this MTOE.
b) The training is divided into phases, which take place after the completion of
the knowledge training (theory), or are intermixed with the above relative
modules.
c) All basic practical training is carried out in the workshops or aircraft

maintenance environment that IKAROS has made arrangements.
Subcontractor’s or customer’s facilities may be used as per Procedure 2.4.
d) When a basic practical training element is in the form of a structured On Job

Training (OJT) the trainees perform under the supervision of the workshop
and/or maintenance crew, staff.
e) The TC instructors monitor the trainees’ performance through spot checks,

and sign in BPTL for the tasks they have checked.
f) After the completion of each phase of the basic practical training, the trainees
present their BPTL to their TC instructor(s) who confirms that the particular
phase has been satisfactorily completed.
MTOE Page: 14
PART 2
CENTER
g) For the practical training on each of the above Modules, an appropriate

instructor is assigned to each group of trainees, with the responsibility to
generate the list of practical training tasks, to plan and to coordinate with the
involved workshops and/or maintenance facilities, as per Procedure 2.4, and
to monitor the execution of the planned practical training, ensuring the
minimum duration of training for each Module is achieved, as stated in the
abovementioned Table 2, PART 2.0, for each trainee.
5.1. A Basic Practical Training Logbook (BPTL) is issued to each trainee. The
instructor(s) or the supervisory staff responsible for the particular Part-145
AMO function in which the training is conducted, confirm the completion of
each task by signing for the tasks in the BPTL.
5.2. For every Module a separate block of BPTL sheets is issued containing a
reference to the specific sub module for each task, a description of the specific
task, and the (training) objective of the task, i.e. what the trainee must
accomplish.
5.3. After the completion of each training phase the trainees present their BPTL to the
responsible instructor for evaluation of the accomplished training. If considered
satisfactory, a practical assessment is arranged.
5.4. If the accomplished training is not considered satisfactory, or after failure in a

practical assessment, then further extension and/or more practical tasks may
be given to the particular practical training element. Copies of each trainee’s
BPTL are filed in records TC.
5.5. Each group of trainees will not exceed 15 persons, per assessor.
5.6. In case of any difficulties encounter during the performance of Theoretical or

Practical training, the instructor conducting the course should immediately
notify the Training Manager and the latter immediately to notify the
Accountable Manager. A solution should be suggested by the Accountable
Manager and implemented within two days. Should the above not materialise,
the course is postponed until a solid rectification is implemented.
5.7. Structure of BPTL
The BPTL consists of three different sheets which are compiled into one at the
completion of the training:
- BTPL SUMMARY (FORM IKTC – 50) This form is a summary of the specific
BTPL Sheets
- BTPL WORKSHOPS (FORM IKTC – 50W) This form contains the details of
each task performed within the workshops
- BTPL MAINTENANCE ENVIRONMENT (FORM IKTC – 50A) This form
contains the details of each task performed in the aircraft maintenance
environment.

2.11 PREPARATION OF THE EXAMINATION ROOM
1. The TC’s Examination Room, (ER) described in Part 1 (1.8 General Description
of Facilities), is the dedicated room for the examinations of approved courses.
2. It is the responsibility of the invigilator to make sure, before the start of the
examination, that the ER is prepared so that the integrity of the examinations is
protected.
3. He checks that the candidates’ desks are arranged in single rows, separated by
enough distance between them, in such a way that the candidates cannot read
each other’s examination papers.
4. If, however, in any particular examination there are more than 15 candidates (e.g.
candidates for examinations described in Procedure 2.9, paragraph 1.1) the TrM
will decide if:
a) The candidates shall be split into groups and sit the examinations in the ER at
different times, but consecutively. In this case, the TC must ensure the
segregation of the outgoing with the incoming trainees.
b) Other classrooms shall be used complementary to ER, for the examinations, if
required. In this case again, there will be only one candidate seated per
trainee’s desk, irrespective of it being single or double desk, so that the
candidates cannot read each other’s examination papers.
c) In case of need for additional invigilators appropriate staff, can be used for
assistance. When exams are performed on customer’s facilities, additional
invigilators, can be used from customer’s personnel to support IKAROS
invigilator, to meet the requirements of MTOE part 2 paragraph 2.12.
Invigilators should be accepted as per MTOE part 3.
5. Before the candidates enter the room, the invigilator ensures that there is not any
other material in the examination room, except the material pertaining to the
examination, i.e. only the candidates’ examination sets, and any specific
documentation needed for type examinations. The invigilator also checks for
Form IKTC-59 completion.

2.12 CONDUCT OF EXAMINATIONS
1. An invigilator assigned by the HoE has the oversight responsibility of the

examination process.
2. In order to assist the invigilator during the conduct of a particular examination, one
or more (if more than one examination rooms are used) persons as assigned by
the HoE, can act as invigilators. Also when exams are performed on customer’s
facilities, invigilators can be used from customer’s organisation, if accepted by the
HoE.
A. Before The Start of the Exams
- The invigilator audits the examination room and completes FORM IKTC – 59A
- He/She checks the “EO” against the number and names of candidates
- He/She amends the “EO” as necessary
- He/She assigns the classroom/s to be used for the examination
- He/She assigns the seating position of the candidates as per the associated
examination room drawing (FORM IKTC – 59A)
- The candidates enter the room at the pre-set time and sit one at each desk, at
their pre-assigned position. Upon entering the room they hand to the examiner or
the invigilator their mobile telephones and any other materials (notes, books, etc)
that may put to dispute the integrity of the examination.
- The door is closed and no candidate is allowed to enter or leave the room
- The candidates take their positions and each candidate receives a set of the
Examination Answer Sheet
- The invigilator checks their name and details against the completed answer
sheets (FORMs IKTC - 46 and 47) – “completed” means the fields that the
candidates fill their personal details.
- He checks the candidates ID/Passport against their name and face and collects a
copy of the ID/Passport.
- The invigilator informs the candidates of the examination process, their
responsibilities and the duration of the examination, as per the specified duration
for basic module examinations, or the number of questions used for type training
(duration times being pre-calculated according to Part-66, Appendix III,
paragraph 3.1). After answering procedural questions from the candidates, the
examiner / invigilator opens the relevant examination envelop and distributes the
examination questions papers to the candidates and declares the start of the
examination process and informs the candidates of the exact completion time.

MTOE Page: 27
PART 2
CENTER
B. During the Exams

- No candidate is allowed to leave the examination room and re-enter. On a
special occasion a candidate may leave the room for a few minutes provided that
he is accompanied by an authorised person while outside the room.
- If any queries arise during the examination process regarding the examination
questions, the inquiring candidate must express it openly so that all the other
candidates may hear it, and the examiner / invigilator must answer in the same
manner. All queries arise during the examination are recorded by the invigilator
on Form IKTC-21 and reviewed by the HoE after the examination, for revision as
required.
- It is the responsibility of the invigilator(s) that the candidates do not speak to each
other and that no candidate is allowed to cheat during the examination. In the
occurrence of such incident the candidate involved is banned from the room and
paragraph 7 of Procedure 2.9 is followed.
- Ten and five minutes before the end of the examination period, the invigilator
informs the candidates of the remaining time.
C. End of the Exams
- At the expiration of the time, the invigilator advises the candidates to stop writing
- They hand over to the examiner or the invigilator their examination answer sheet
and the examination questions set and any draft paper.
- The candidates leave the room and wait outside until the invigilator reviews the
relevant paperwork.
- If no inquiries arise, then the candidates are released
- He then inserts in an envelope the exam papers, he seals and signs and returns
it/them to the HOE upon arrival in the IKAROS Larnaca facilities.
3. To ensure the integrity of the examinations the HoE or TrM carries out spot checks
during the examination process. If an examiner, or an invigilator, is found to be
cheating, then the examination process is stopped and paragraph 8 of Procedure
2.9 is applied. The Accountable Manager is informed immediately of any such
incidents.
4. If an examiner or invigilator is accused of cheating, then the examination is
temporarily stopped and an on-the-spot investigation is carried-out by the TrM. If
the accusations are proven false, the examination restarts and its duration is
extended accordingly; the TrM decides if any further action is required. If the
accusations are confirmed, then paragraph 8 of Procedure 2.9 is applied. The
Accountable Manager is informed accordingly. In this case because the
examination must be declared void, a new examination is rescheduled for the
specific candidates, without any additional charges.
5. A failed module may not be retaken for at least 90 days following the date of the
failed module examination, except in the case the candidate is underdone a
course of retraining tailored to the failed subjects by IKAROS in the particular
module, when the failed module may be retaken after 30 days

2.13 CONDUCT OF BASIC PRACTICAL ASSESSMENT
1. The TC conducts basic practical assessments by nominated practical assessors,

as per 147.A.210. Also Form IKTC – 51 is completed for each trainee.
2. After confirmation of the completion of a practical basic training phase, by the
instructor, as per paragraph 3 & 4 of Procedure 2.5, the trainee may present his
BPTL to the HoE and request a practical assessment.
3. The TrM assigns a practical assessor who will coordinate with the workshops
and/or maintenance facilities involved in the assessment, and plan the
assessment schedule.
4. The practical assessor must select from the trainee’s BPTL a number of
representative tasks and compile a “Basic Practical Assessment Sheet” (BPAS)
(see Part 4). In order to perform an objective evaluation of the trainee’s skills and
capabilities, the assessor should include a sufficient number of tasks for the
assessment of a particular skill or capability (e.g. the ability to use special tools,
or manuals, or for tidiness and neatness of work, etc.).
5. The practical assessor, must state in the column “Task Objective” of the BPAS,
what capabilities or skills of the trainee is each task intended to assess,
according to the criteria of paragraph 7 below. In order to perform an objective
evaluation of the trainee’s skills and capabilities, the assessor should include
more than one task, designed to assess a particular skill or capability (e.g. the
ability to use special tools, or manuals, or for tidiness and neatness of work, etc).
6. The practical assessment is conducted in the actual maintenance environment.
The practical assessor dates and signs on the BPAS each task that the trainee
completes marking Yes or No for a pass on non-pass in the appropriate column.
The assessor may ask a trainee to repeat a task in order to form a clear
judgment of his abilities.
7. An assessed pass is granted to the trainee when the practical assessor is
satisfied that the trainee meets the criteria of 147.A.200 (e). Which means that:
a) The trainee must demonstrate his capability to use relevant
tools/equipment/test equipment as specified by the manufacturers and the use
of Maintenance Manuals in that the trainee can carry out the required
inspection/testing without missing any defects, can readily identify the location
of components and is capable of correct removal/fitment/adjustment of such
components. The trainee is only required to carry out enough
inspection/testing and component removal/fitment/adjustments to prove
capability.
b) The trainee must also show an appreciation of the need to ensure clean
working conditions and the observance of safety precautions for him and the
product.
c) In addition, the trainee must demonstrate a responsible attitude in respect to
flight safety and airworthiness of the aircraft.
d) The assessor must always perform his specific task by considering for the
“competence” of the trainee, as described under Part 2.19.D.

MTOE Page: 29
PART 2
CENTER
8. After the completion of a practical assessment, the practical assessor discusses

with the trainee the tasks that he has failed, and analyses what was expected to
perform during the task.
9. An intermediate evaluation of the results each trainee has obtained is carried out
by the HoE with the instructor and the practical assessor to determine if any
corrective actions have to be taken concerning the practical training programme
of each trainee.
10. When the practical assessment of a whole Module has been completed, the TrM
and the instructor perform the final evaluation of each trainee’s results.
11. A trainee is granted an overall PASS in a Module when he has successfully
passed over ¾ of the total assessed tasks for the Module.
12. Each case of failure to obtain an overall pass in a particular Module is further
discussed to decide whether the trainee could be assessed again in due time, or
should receive additional practical training in the failed topics and be re-
assessed.
13. The basic practical assessment is conducted during the basic training course by
the nominated practical assessor, at the completion of each visit period to the
practical workshop or maintenance facility.

2.14 MARKING AND RECORD OF EXAMINATIONS
1. After the completion of the examinations as per Procedure 2.12, the HoE or a
“Marker” assigned by the HoE, marks the candidates’ examination answer sheets
using the associated MCQ answer matrix already prepared as per paragraph 2 of
Procedure 2.10. If essay questions have been included in the examination then
the associated model answer sheets are also used. The whole process takes
place in the office area under the supervision of the HoE.
2. For the marking of the MCQ, the maximum attainable mark of 100 is divided by
the total number of questions, so that each question has the same marking
value.
3. A person assigned by the HoE or the TrM, marks the essay questions. Each key
point of the question’s model answer sheet is graded upon its importance and
has a point weighting allocated to it. The total weight of the key points represents
60% of the question’s total mark. Each answer is analysed and variations on
alternative answers, not being thought of by the examiner, are taken into
account. If relevant, the model answer is amended to include these new points.
Each question answer is also analysed for the clarity and the manner in which
the essay report is presented and this has a weighting allocated to it which
represents the remaining 40% of the total mark.
4. The mark each candidate attains is written on the candidate’s associated
examination answer sheet. The candidate must attain a minimum mark of 75%,
to pass the MCQ examination. The candidate must attain a minimum of 75% of
the essay marking (or each essay marking when more than one) to pass an
essay examination.
5. Both the MCQ and the essay examination should be passed by the candidate in
order to get the relevant Module credit. In each of the above (2) and (3) cases, in
order to pass the examination.
6. Examination records consist of the relative Examination Order, the candidates’
answer sheets with a sample question set, the answer matrix and/or the essay
questions model answer sheets.
7. The marking of each candidate is revised if affected by a question found to be
incorrect, due to a query raised during the examination or during analysis of the
examination according to MTOE 3.3
8. The examination results of every candidate are recorded by the TrM in electronic
format. Electronic backups are preformed every 24hrs by the server.
9. Each trainee’s examination record contains information of all the examinations
and/or practical assessments he/she has undertaken, including the dates each of
these took place and the mark he has achieved.
10. In most of the cases, an EO will be associated with a TO. As such, the procedure for recording and keeping the
examination papers and results is directly associated with the procedure for recording and keeping the TOs as
described under Part 2.6 and 2.7 of this MTOE.

2.19.E – Type Rating Theoretical Training – TNA
1. INTRODUCTION
The holder of an aircraft license needs to have his license endorsed with the
relevant aircraft type rating so as to be able to exercise certification privileges. The
endorsement of aircraft type rating requires the satisfactory completion of the
relevant B1, B2 or C aircraft type rating.
The complete aircraft type training consists of theoretical training and examination
and practical training and assessment.
Theoretical training and examination must be conducted by a Maintenance
Training Organisation approved in accordance with Annex IV (Part-147) or by
other organisations, if already approved by DCA.
IKAROS has adopted the following procedure with regards to the TNA and
Extracts from the TNA for a Type shorter or longer course:
A. SHORTEST
- TPRM Type Courses are addressed in the TPRM at their highest level and
simplest version.
For example Airbus A318/A319/A320/A321 (CFM56) and Airbus
A319/A320/A321(V2500) B1/B2 Course is considered as the Master at the
highest Level.
- Should a need arise to perform a course either with less chapters or
Categories, or more, the TrM extracts from the above the required syllabus for
drafting the layout of the new “reduced” course.
- He prepares a new Course Analysis, and a Training Needs Analysis for the
Theoretical Element and similar for the Practical Element.
- The TrM submits the new syllabus to the DCA for approval
- The new course is kept in a “LPM - Local Procedures Manual” called IK “TNA
Extracts”, thus there is no need for TPRM revisions.
- In case the course need to be performed again, it will be revised prior use.
B. LONGEST
- Should the time allowed for training during any Theoretical and/or Practical
Element be higher than the approved TPRM durations, the TrM keeps records
and justified reasons for such increased duration, in the LPM.
- He informs the DCA of the additional time and reasons

MTOE Page: 42
PART 2
CENTER
- The certificates related to the above reflect the actual (Not the approved TNA)
durations
2. REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS
Appendix III of Part-66 requires that all the above type training courses should
justify their hour duration and coverage of full syllabus by a Training Needs
Analysis (TNA) for every aircraft/engine and License Category type.
Hence, the TNA shall be the main driver for determining the duration of the
course, regardless of whether it is above or below the minimum duration
described in Appendix III to Part-66.
3. TNA – “TRAINING NEEDS ANALYSIS”
3.1 Definitions
(a) TNA is the analysis of the target group (aircraft maintenance personnel)
against the competence definitions of their job to determine precise objectives
(knowledge, skills, attitudes)
(b) Competencies are general descriptions of the abilities needed to perform

aircraft maintenance.
There are three important functions that have an influence on a person’s
competency:
- Knowledge
- Skills
- Attitude
(c) Task families are the page blocks as defined in the ATA 100
(d) Item: an item may be an aircraft or a component. This can be a system, sub-
system, LRU, or component.
(e) Method of delivery: the way the course is delivered, which it could be:
- Self passed
- Instructor Led
- Training Device
- Aircraft
3.2 Objectives
(a) Overall Objective - the trainees, upon completion of type theoretical training
course, shall be able to demonstrate the detailed theoretical knowledge of the
aircraft’s applicable systems, structure, operations, maintenance, repair, and
troubleshooting according to approved maintenance data, to the levels identified
in the Appendix III of Part-66 syllabus,. The trainee should also be able to

MTOE Page: 43
PART 2
CENTER
demonstrate the use of manuals and approved procedures, including the

knowledge of relevant inspections and limitations as a final result of the course.
(b) Unit Objective - the level of the ability of the trainees perform a task at the end
of the training of a unit or ATA chapter course or task
(c) Unit Tools - are the requirements necessary to be possessed / gain by

trainees to allow them to accomplish the “Unit Objective”.
3.3 TNA Break – down
3.3.1 A complete type training course consists of the Theoretical Elements and
the Practical Elements. The Theoretical Elements includes the in- classroom
theory delivery, final examinations and the aircraft visits (field trips).The TNA aims
to analyse the requirements of the Theoretical Elements only, giving a strong
statement of the necessary hours-duration required in order to accomplish the
above mentioned objectives. The analysis takes into account a variety of elements
such as aircraft type and complexity, Part-66 Appendix III requirements, a/c
manufacturer documents and publications, special tools and equipment, etc.
Other factors considered during the final production phase are:
(a) the max. number of training hours per day (not more than 6 hours), and,
(b) the minimum participation time for the trainee to meet the objectives of the
course which should not be less than 90% of the total tuition hours.
The TNA frame work is divided into 3 phases:
Phase 1 – collection of course information

Phase 2 – competency analysis to meet objectives
Phase 3 – production of course
3.3.2 Phase 1
The analysis commences with the collection of information in order to identify

areas and elements necessary to be included in the training course material, with
the following typical sequence:
(a) Selection of a/c type

(b) Selection of Category ( B1, B2, C) for type training
(c) Operational suitability data established in accordance with Regulation (EU) No
748/2012 or, if such elements are not available
(d) The standard described in point 3.1 of Part-66 Appendix III
(e) List of the ATA chapters associated to the specific a/c type
(f) List the sub ATA´s chapters associated to (e) above
(g) A typical selection of other items that are part of the (sub) ATA chapters, as
listed below and subject to availability by the operators when conducting
customised type rating courses for them:

MTOE Page: 44

CENTER
- MRB1 report / MPD2 – when available as part of operators customised type

Training courses
- Airworthiness Limitations
- Maintenance Manuals
- Troubleshooting Manual
- Structural Repair Manual
- IPC
- Airworthiness Directives and Service Bulletins
3.3.3 Phase 2
In phase 2 all the information collected for each ATA Chapter is broken down
specifying tasks (or group of tasks) and listing them by their individual level (1, 2
or 3).
For each task (or group of task) the “Unit Objective” is identified. A suggested
sequence could be:
(a) List of tasks for each ATA chapter, with grouping into “families” if necessary .
(b) Identify the “Unit Objective” for each task.
(c) Each “Unit Objective” is categorised per level (1, 2 or 3) based on the
Regulatory requirements (App. III of Part-66).
FOR EXAMPLE: ATA chapter 32-40-00

Unit Objective = Principle of Operation of Brake System
Level 3
3.3.4 Phase 3
This last phase, is the built up of the course. The course consists of the “Unit
Tools” for each Unit Objectives together with the practical tasks needed to support
the Unit Objectives. In this phase the necessary training method(s) are
specified in order to accomplish the above objectives and the needed time to
execute these training methods.
A typical sequence is:

(a) Identify the “Unit Tools” for each Unit Objective
(b) Specify the practical tasks necessary to support the above

Typical practical tasks could be:
- Activation / reactivation
- Removal / installation
- Testing
- Servicing
- Inspection, check and repairs
- Troubleshooting / diagnosis

(c) Specify the training method to accomplish the above, e.g.

- Assessment
- Oral
- Written examination
(d) Specify the required time (time length of each Unit Objective) to execute all the
above.
(e) Develop the course materials including examinations and assessments.
FOR EXAMPLE: ATA Chapter 32-40-00
•Unit Objective = Principle of Operation of Brake System Level 3
•Unit Tools =
- Brake system Components
- Diagrams
- Practical Tasks
- Time
4. REVIEWING / UPDATING OF THE TNA
A. The TNA is a dynamic process and it is reviewed/updated based on operational

feedback, maintenance occurrences, Airworthiness Directives, major service
bulletins impacting maintenance activities or requiring new competencies for
mechanics, alert service bulletins, feedback from trainees or customer
satisfaction, evolution of the maintenance documentation such as MRBs, MPDs,
MMs, etc.
B. REVIEWING TIMING - IKAROS policy is to review the TNA for all approved
type training courses, at least once a year.
Review is based on Instructors’ recommendations, trainees’ recommendations
received through questionnaires and on Manufacturers Documentation. IKAROS
has a long lasting cooperation with AOCs and AMOs through which has access to
approved manufacturers’ maintenance data.
After the completion of a Type course, the instructor submits to TrM the Training
Material/Syllabus Review form (IKTC-63A) with his/her suggestions. All
suggestions are evaluated by TrM with the contribution of the instructor. The TrM
has the authority to decide the immediate incorporation, the postponing for a later
time or to rejection of any suggestion.
