TRAINING COURSE
Aircraft Fuel Tank Safety - Level 1
Introduction
EASA Decisions 2007/001/R and 2007/002/R issued in March 2007 amended existing Acceptable Means of Compliance material of Part M and Part 145 to account for Fuel Tank Safety Issues. This included organisations acting under these parts being required to undertake extensive staff and management training programmes.
This course is designed to satisfy the Level 1 training requirements of both EASA Decisions.
Uniquely, it is developed by a team led by a member of the JAA group assigned to assist in the investigation of Fuel Tank Safety related events. Notably this includes the TWA800 accident in 1996, and the subsequent development and implementation of International and European Requirements relating to the issue.
Covering the wide range of topics required by the amendments, from the investigation of historical events driving the legislation, to its practical applications ensuring the continued airworthiness of affected aircraft, the course aims to succinctly and clearly communicate a complex and dynamic subject.
Who should take this course
Part 145 - managers, QA personnel, stores personnel, staff not directly involved in Maintenance.
Part M - National Authorities (inspectors, surveyors, ARC signatories, Maintenance Programmes specialists managers).
