ASTM F3476 PDF

1.1”The purpose of this guide primarily is to address the fundamental subject knowledge, task performance, and task knowledge activities labeled ”’Airframe and Systems,”’ which ensures the Aircraft Maintenance Technician (AMT)/Aircraft Maintenance Engineer (AME) have the necessary basic knowledge and skills for today”’s global aviation maintenance environment. Thus, the ASTM F46 Aerospace Personnel Committee has developed academic and skills knowledge standards that have been developed by aerospace industry-lead working groups. These standards reflect industry best practices and provide a focus on levels of safety that may exceed current regulatory guidance for aircraft maintenance technician academic and skills standards. This guide may supplement a state”’s basic general requirements for AMT/AME certification. It is not the intent of this guide to replace the AMT requirements, but to ensure the AMT/AME is trained to the level as indicated. It is recommended that ASTM F3376, Standard Guide for Core Competencies for Aviation Maintenance Personnel, be used as a prerequisite for this guide. This guide may be used as a basis for an approval when specifically identified as such by the appropriate governing authority.
