EASA Module 16 study plan

Map the Part-66 licence categories (A, B1, B2, B3, C, L) against the aircraft and tasks each may certify, and write a one-page comparison table from memory before checking it against the regulation text

Trace the full chain from ICAO Annex 1 through Basic Regulation (EU) 2018/1139 to Part-66, Part-M, Part-145 and Part-147, and draw a diagram showing which regulation governs which actor

List the privileges and limitations of a certifying staff authorisation under Part-145 and contrast them with the privileges of an independent Part-66 licence holder

Define the terms certifying staff, support staff, maintenance, repair, overhaul, alteration, inspection and check in your own words and flag any pair you cannot separate cleanly

Break down the Part-66 basic knowledge requirements into module numbers and explain which modules feed which licence category

Describe the route to first issue of a Part-66 licence including basic training, examination, experience requirements per category, and the role of the competent authority

Explain the aircraft type rating concept: what a type rating endorses, how it is added to a licence, and what the type training must contain

Summarise the recent experience and recency requirements that keep a licence valid, and identify which records prove them

Outline the Part-147 approved maintenance training organisation requirements: what approval covers, what the examination standards demand, and how a Part-147 certificate interacts with Part-66 licensing

Compare the knowledge, examination and experience credit a Part-147 graduate receives against a non-Part-147 candidate

Explain the role of the competent authority in oversight of Part-147 organisations and in the licensing examination process

Draft five exam-style questions on training and licensing and answer them without notes

Explain the continuing airworthiness management organisation concept under Part-M, including the tasks in the continuing airworthiness management exposition

Describe the aircraft maintenance programme: who approves it, what it is based on, and how deviations are managed

Trace the airworthiness review certificate process, including who may issue it and the conditions that must be met

Identify the responsibilities of the owner, the operator and the CAMO for continuing airworthiness and state who is accountable in each case

List the elements of a Part-145 maintenance organisation exposition and explain what each element commits the organisation to

Describe the quality system requirements under Part-145, including independent audit, audit scope and follow-up of findings

Explain the certifying staff authorisation process in a Part-145 organisation: selection, training, assessment, issue and withdrawal

Distinguish the categories of findings (level 1 and level 2) and describe the corrective action and escalation path for each

Describe the maintenance records and release to service requirements: what a certificate of release to service must contain and who may sign it

Explain the role and limits of the certificate of release to service for maintenance carried out away from a main base and for work deferred under the minimum equipment list

Summarise component control, including the status of components removed from an aircraft and the conditions for fitting them again

Explain how unscheduled maintenance and defect deferral are recorded and closed out

Consolidate the whole domain by writing a one-page summary of each of Part-66, Part-M, Part-145 and Part-147 from memory

Identify your three weakest sub-areas from weeks 1 to 6 and re-study each one with a focused note set

Work through at least 60 practice questions across the domain, recording the reason for every wrong answer rather than just the correct option

Explain how the four regulations interlock when an aircraft moves from a Part-145 base check to a CAMO-managed continuing airworthiness programme

Review the error log from week 7 and close out every remaining gap with targeted re-reading

Rehearse the full regulatory chain and licence-category privileges under timed conditions until you can reproduce both without reference

Complete a final timed mock covering the whole domain and review every answer, right or wrong

Write a short personal reference sheet of the facts you most often forget, to use in the final days before the exam
