Description
This unit of competency applies to avionic products, projects and related system modifications. It is suitable for people working in avionics related design, drafting and maintenance support at the paraprofessional level.The unit covers the application of graphical techniques for avionic engineering related purposes. Graphics techniques include sketching, computer graphics and the application of drawing standards.This unit is used in workplaces that operate under the airworthiness regulatory systems of the Australian Defence Force (ADF) and the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA).
