EASA Part-147 B1 Type Training course
The B1 Type Training course consists of an Airframe, Electrical, Power Plant and Avionics systems course, as required by Part-147. The course is intended for Part-147 Category B1 certifying staff.
EASA Part-147 B2 Type Training course
For Part-147 Category B2 certifying staff there is the B2 Type Training course (theoretical), comprising an Avionics, Airframe & Power Plant systems course, as required by Part-147.
Airframe & Power Plant course (non Part-147)
The Airframe & Power Plant course is a non Part-147 type conversion course for line maintenance mechanics. This ATA 104 level 3 type conversion course consists of the theoretical aspects of the course subjects at a detailed level as required by ICAO II.
Avionics Supplement course (non Part-147)
This course is a supplementary course for Airframe, Electrical and Power Plant mechanics, who have successfully completed the initial type training.
Avionics course (non Part-147)
The Avionics course is an ATA 104 level 3 type conversion course for line maintenance mechanics - avionics. The course offers the theoretical aspects and maintenance information of the course subjects at a detailed level as required by ICAO II.
Engine Run-Up course (non Part-147)
The Engine Run-up course provides additional training at ATA 104 level 4 for Airframe and Power Plant technicians. It is a theoretical and practical training to run the engines and to perform operational tests. The training includes two practical sessions that are carried out in a Full Flight Simulator. The course is available for the Fokker 50/60 and Fokker 70/100 only.
Familiarization course (non Part-147)
The Familiarization course, intended for management and general staff members, is a Non Part-147 theoretical course at ATA 104 level I. It gives a brief description of the operation, location and maintenance aspects of all aircraft systems.
Recurrent Training Program
Fokker Services also conducts recurrent training for certifying staff. The Recurrent Training Program refreshes and fine-tunes the knowledge level of mechanics, technicians and engineers in order to comply with the EASA requirements. If desired, Fokker Services examines the need for and the required contacts of a Recurrent Training Program by means of a proficiency check before commencement of the training.
Power Plant Trouble-Shooting course (non Part-147)
The Power Plant Trouble-Shooting course for the Fokker 50/60 is a non Part-147 theoretical course for the certification of staff who have practical experience of engine operation. The course provides theoretical training enabling students to understand the symptoms of engine-related malfunctions. Participants must have successfully completed the Airframe and Power Plant course and first have gained practical experience on power plant operation.
MSG-3 Analysis course (non Part-147)
The MSG-3 is an analysis system to develop and maintain a scheduled maintenance program. The analysis has the objective to maintain an inherent safety level and to achieve an optimal balance between maintenance costs and reliability.
Structural Metal Repair Course
Due to a training update, this training course is available from 1st quarter 2011.
The Structural Repair course familiarizes the student with the repair procedures as included in the Structural Repair Manual (SRM) for all types of Fokker aircraft, The course is intended for technicians who do repair on metal aircraft structures.
Structural Composites Repair Course
Due to a training update, this training course is available from 1st quarter 2011.
The Composite Repair course familiarizes the student with the repair procedures for the Fokker 50, Fokker 60, Fokker 70 and the Fokker 100. The course is intended for technicians who repair the aircraft composite parts.
Training Modules
Training Modules are maintenance training sessions about any aircraft system to be agreed upon, and intended for line maintenance mechanics, line maintenance technicians and base engineers.
Practical Training
The practical training is done on the operator’s site for technicians who have successfully completed the initial type training course. Aspects relate to maintaining and servicing the aircraft, the use of built-in-test equipment and ground handling equipment to comply with EASA Part-66 requirements. The Practical Training Guide (PTG) is used as a guideline.
Fuel Tank Safety - FTS1 & FTS2
The course makes trainees familiar at Level I or level II with the history of events due to fuel tank safety issues and the theoretical and practical elements of the subject. They will get an overview of the FAA regulations, theoretical and practical elements. The Level II course gives a detailed description of the concept of Critical Design Configuration Control Limitations (CDCCL), Airworthiness Limitations Items (ALI) and using theoretical fundamentals and specific examples.
