Description
This unit of competency requires application of hand skills, test equipment and knowledge of pulse, analogue and digital theory to repair or overhaul components from fixed and rotary wing aircraft pulse systems that are repaired or overhauled in aviation maintenance workshops during scheduled or unscheduled maintenance. Work may be performed individually or as part of a team.The unit is part of the Avionic Certificate IV (Component Workshop Maintenance Stream) training pathway. Repair of circuit boards is covered by MEA262 Modify/repair aircraft component single layer printed circuit boards and MEA263 Modify/repair aircraft component multi-layer printed circuit boards.The 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).
