This textbook, the fourth in a series of four, was written for the aviation maintenance technician (AMT) student of today. It covers powerplant material that an AMT needs to know. The topics included are listed below. It is based on the real-world requirements of today’s aviation industry and introduces some of the systems and technologies that may help form the future of aviation. It also includes traditional subject areas taught since the first aviation maintenance schools were certificated.
Avotek has developed and advanced these textbooks through careful study and gathering of information from the Federal Aviation Administration, the Blue Ribbon Panel, the Joint Task Analysis report, industry involvement, and AMT schools nationwide.
The books are designed to support both current and future requirements for a course of study in aviation maintenance technology. The new Aviation Mechanic Airman Certification Standards (ACS) have been the driving force in both the scope and the organization of this series.
