Airworthiness Course overview
On this course you will explore the basis for manufacturers, local authorities, aircraft owners, aircraft operators, and aircraft maintenance organisations to achieve initial airworthiness and how the continuing airworthiness is maintained.
Each stakeholder must fulfil a specific role to maintain an acceptable level of safety for customers and operators. You will be able to understand the influence you have in your specific function in the aviation system. This will allow you to influence the safety in aviation positively.
Who is it for?
Management and non-management aviation personnel to include all system-relevant functions in the entire aviation system. On completion participants will understand the applied principles and limitations of airworthiness, regulatory requirements, and the different roles the stakeholders must play in achieving and maintaining airworthiness.
