Airbus A220 Continuation Training Course with PW1500G Powerplants

The Airbus A220 Continuation Training Course with PW1500G powerplants meets ATA 104 Specification Level I and EASA Knowledge Level 1 standards, providing a concise overview of the airframe, systems, and powerplant as outlined in the Systems Description Section of the Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM). This course ensures familiarisation with principal aircraft systems and their components.

The course follows EASA’s Level 1 knowledge definition per Regulation EU No. 1321/2014, Part 66, Appendix III, requiring that students:

• Familiarise themselves with the basic elements of the subject.
• Be able to give a simple description using common terminology.
• Use typical industry terms.

This self-paced, online course spans approximately 40 hours. Students must complete a quiz at the end of each ATA chapter to unlock the next section. A certificate of completion is awarded upon successful course completion.

Course Objectives
By the end of the course, students will:
(a) Identify safety precautions related to the airframe, its systems, and the powerplant.
(b) Apply maintenance practices crucial for the airframe, systems, and powerplant.
(c) Understand the general layout of major aircraft systems, such as air conditioning and hydraulics.
(d) Describe the PW1500G powerplant’s layout and characteristics, including FADEC control and thrust reversers.
(e) Identify special tooling and test equipment for servicing the Airbus A220 and its components.

System Requirements
Courses are accessible via PC, laptop, tablet, Android, and iPhone. A stable internet connection is necessary.

Study Time
The course takes an estimated 40 hours to complete. Students have up to 6 months to finish the course, with progress saved to allow stopping and resuming as needed. An additional 90 days are available for review after course completion.

Support
Support is available during regular business hours for any questions or issues that may arise.
