  2. uk W I D KLM D L E KLM R O W engineering R E Y L T I I A L B I FP uk KLM NORTHWEST G-UKFP G S T O N I N U N I V E R S I T Y Flying is one of the safest forms of travel UK's air safety record is one of the best

  3. uk The maintenance of safety is one of the main priorities of an aircraft engineer KLM engineering G S T O N I N U N I V E R S I T Y

  4. uk KLM engineering Not only in the UK, but all around the world G S T O N I N U N I V E R S I T Y Aircraft Engineers are an endangered species

  5. uk KLM engineering G S T O N I N U N I V E R S I T Y Why is there such a shortage? • The armed services numbers declining • Levels of enthusiasm among school leavers • Retirement rates • Slashed training budgets

  6. uk KLM engineering G S T O N I N U N I V E R S I T Y Qualifying Aircraft Engineers Licences are issued under Joint Aviation Requirements (JAR 66) JAR 66 provides a common and mutually acceptable standard across the Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA’s)

  7. uk KLM engineering G S T O N I N U N I V E R S I T Y Qualifying Aircraft Engineers The JAR 66 licence provides a qualification in aircraft maintenance that demonstrates the achievement of an underpinning level of both knowledge and competence.

  8. uk KLM engineering G S T O N I N U N I V E R S I T Y Qualifying Aircraft Engineers There are 3 Categories within the JAR 66 Licensing system: Category A – Line Maintenance Certifying Mechanic Category B – Line Maintenance Technician B1 - Mechanical B2 - Avionics Category C – Base Maintenance Certifying Engineer

  9. uk KLM Category A engineering G S T O N I N U N I V E R S I T Y Qualifying Aircraft Engineers Category A is intended to be the basis for ‘limited authorisations’. Allows an experienced and knowledgeable mechanic to certify simple inspections and routine tasks

  10. uk KLM Category B engineering G S T O N I N U N I V E R S I T Y Qualifying Aircraft Engineers Category B is the mainstay licence qualification for aircraft maintenance staff under the JAR’s. Available in two disciplines; mechanical (B1) and avionic (B2). Requires more detailed knowledge and a longer period of experience than for Category A.

  11. uk KLM Category C engineering G S T O N I N U N I V E R S I T Y Qualifying Aircraft Engineers A qualification related to the management of maintenance. Intended to be used to certify the process of maintenance. An alternative route to a C licence is available based on obtaining a degree level qualification acceptable to the CAA.

  12. Join the industry Self study for the JAR-66 knowledge examinations Take examinations through the CAA(12-13 examinations) Complete 5 years maintenance experience Complete 3 years as a B Licensed certifying engineer Apply to the CAA for a category C Licence Apply to the CAA for a category B Licence Complete a JAR 147 Approved Training Course Take the JAR-66 examinations as part of the course Complete 2 years maintenance experience How are JAR-66 Licences obtained? There are a limited number ways of obtaining exemptions from some examinations. A reduction in the 5 year maintenance experience requirement can be obtained. Both are at the discretion of the CAA All examinations must be completed within 5 years of the licence application, experience within 7 years

  13. uk uk KLM KLM engineering engineering G S T O N I N U N I V E R S I T Y • An Aircraft Maintenance Organisation • Large employer of aircraft engineers • Continued to train apprentices • Recognised the need to make aircraft engineering more attractive • Actively began seeking an Industry partner

  14. uk KLM engineering G S T O N I N U N I V E R S I T Y • Top rated HEFCE TQA degree provider in the field of aerospace engineering • University investigated feasibility of setting up a degree programme • Introduction of the Foundation Degree satisfied both the academic standards expected by the university and the vocational and practical experience the industry was seeking
