ATR 42-320 Online General Familiarization Course
General Familiarization is an overview of a specific model aircraft. They are great tools for review, new hires, prerequisite training, and preparations for systems-level classes. These self-study courses are an economical approach benefiting students, technicians, instructors, MRO training departments, and airline maintenance departments alike.
This in-depth course covering the Bombardier Dash 8 Q-400 with P&W 150A engines provides a detailed description, including component location, operation, maintenance needs and cockpit interface of each covered system. While meeting the academic standards of EASA type training (when taught by an approved Part 147 maintenance training organization), for use in non-EASA countries, perhaps it is better referred to as Enhanced GenFam.
The +/- 15 hour program presents each of the topics below at the required familiarization levels for maintenance personnel including the extensive use of graphics, animations, and audio narration in built into multiple short 1-2 minute segments.
Completing this course qualifies you for 15 FAA FAAST AMT Award Points, which will be awarded once you pass the final exam. To receive this award, you must have an account with FAAST.
