8 weeks · About 6 hours per week

Week 1

Aviation Legislation & Human Factors

Map each Part-66 legislation topic to the official Bahrain CAA regulatory source and mark every gap needing review
Build a one-page reference sheet of maintenance organisation approval, certification and release-to-service concepts
Explain the difference between airworthiness directives, service bulletins and mandatory occurrence reporting in writing
Complete 40 legislation practice questions and log every error by cause

A dated legislation summary sheet plus an error log of at least 40 answered questions, with weak areas ranked

Week 2

Trace the roles, responsibilities and limitations of a certifying staff member through a worked scenario
Define the twelve dirty dozen human factors and match each to one realistic maintenance error
Apply the SHEL model and the error-chain concept to two accident case studies
Draft personal checklists linking human factors countermeasures to each of the twelve dirty dozen items

A two-case human factors analysis of 400 words total, each mapped to at least four dirty dozen factors and a countermeasure

Week 3

Describe the loads, stresses and structural members of wings, fuselage and empennage and how each resists failure
Explain flight control surfaces, their actuation and the inspection points that follow from their design
Compare reciprocating and gas turbine engine layouts and state the function of each major module
Interpret a typical airframe and engine inspection schedule and justify each interval

An annotated systems diagram set covering one airframe structure and one engine type, with 15 labelled components explained

Week 4

Explain hydraulic, pneumatic, fuel and ice-and-rain protection systems and their failure effects
Diagnose three hypothetical system faults from symptoms alone and justify the troubleshooting path
State the function of lubrication, ignition, starting and fuel metering on both engine types
Complete 50 mixed airframe and powerplant questions under timed conditions

A timed 50-question test scored at 75 percent or better, with every wrong answer rewritten as a correct statement

Week 5

Explain DC and AC generation, distribution, protection and bonding on a typical aircraft
Describe how electrical power feeds avionics, lighting and indicating systems and what happens on bus failure
Identify the safety precautions for working on live circuits, batteries and static-sensitive avionics
Interpret simple wiring diagrams and trace a fault to a replaceable unit

Three completed fault-tracing exercises on simple circuits, each with a written isolation rationale

Week 6

Explain the purpose and process of maintenance planning, scheduling and control
Apply documentation rules for work packages, task cards, deviations and deferred defects
Describe inspection, testing and the correct handling of unserviceable components and parts
Explain the purpose and process of maintenance planning, scheduling and control

A completed mock work package for one aircraft check, including sign-offs, a deferred defect and a release decision

Week 7

Apply the airworthiness and certification process to a hypothetical modification and state who approves what
Explain quality assurance, audit findings and corrective action in an approved maintenance organisation
Describe storage, preservation and return-to-service requirements for components
Link occurrence reporting duties from week 1 to real maintenance practice

A one-page modification approval flow with named responsible parties and regulatory references

Week 8

Revisit every logged error from weeks 1 to 7 and restate the underlying rule correctly
Complete two full-length timed mock exams under exam conditions
Rank all six domains by mock score and allocate final revision to the three weakest
Write a personal pre-exam checklist covering documentation, calculations and human factors traps

Two mock exams scored at 75 percent or better overall with no domain below 70 percent, plus a final revision checklist

Week 2: Score at least 70 percent on a 30-question legislation and human factors set, and explain three dirty dozen factors without notes

Week 4: Score at least 75 percent on a timed 50-question airframe and powerplant set, and correctly diagnose two of three system faults

Week 6: Score at least 70 percent on electrical and maintenance practice questions, and produce a work package with no documentation errors

Week 8: Two full mock exams at 75 percent or better overall, with every domain at or above 70 percent and all logged errors closed
