Airbus A319/A320/A321 (IAE V2500) B1 Type Course

This 38-day course provides licensed aircraft maintenance technicians with a comprehensive understanding on the A320 aircraft’s design, functionality, and maintenance procedures, specifically focus on IAE V2500 engines. Participants will become familiar with essential technical documentation, including maintenance manuals and service bulletins, ensuring they are prepared for the complex design characteristics and relevant maintenance protocols of modern aircraft.

The course emphasises on both theoretical knowledge of aircraft systems and the development of practical skills. It offers detailed instruction on aircraft components and operations, coupled with hands-on experience in maintenance, troubleshooting, and repair of critical systems. A key focus is on enhancing participant’s problem-solving abilities and critical thinking skills. By engaging in realistic technical scenarios, participants will learn to diagnose issues effectively and develop efficient solutions.

Upon successfully completion of the required examinations and assessments, participants will be fully prepared to obtain the HKAR-66 B1 A320 Type Rating, meeting the industry’s highest standards for safety and reliability.

This course provides detailed, maintenance-manual-level instruction on Airframe, Engine, and Electrical systems to Level 3, and on Avionics systems to Level 2. The curriculum covers system description, operation, component location, removal/installation, Build-In Test Equipment (BITE) procedures, and troubleshooting.

The course will address the following subjects:

• Description and operation of airframe, engine, electrical and avionics systems
• Identification and location of the main components
• Servicing of the airframe, engine and electrical systems in accordance with aircraft maintenance manuals
• Troubleshooting of the airframe, engine and electrical systems with the use of built-in devices
• Operational testing of the airframe, engine and electrical systems
• Servicing and minor troubleshooting of the avionics systems with the use of built-in test devices
