GENERAL ENGINEERING

The success of a technical person depends upon his basic engineering skill. We have a Workshop unit for imparting practice in the essential basic engineering skill related to various general and aircraft tools, usage technique to adhere to correct aircraft maintenance practices.

The syllabus is subdivided into four groups :

Basic Metal Workshop

Machine Shop

Welding Shop

Sheet Metal Shop

Basic Metal Workshop :

To teach students the use of general and precision tools for marking, measuring, cutting, filing and fitting jobs. This shop has bench and hand vices, pneumatic hammer, large surface table for precision marking-off , air compressor, Powered hacksaw etc.

Machine Shop :

This shop helps students to obtain knowledge and principles of turning, thread cutting, knurling, drilling and boring etc., It consists of high speed drilling machine, grinding machine, buffing machine, center lathe.

Welding Shop :

To familiarize students with electric arc welding, gas welding and spot welding techniques.

Sheet Metal Shop :

To give in depth knowledge to students regarding sheet metal work on aircraft, like cutting, bending, rolling, riveting etc., This shop is equipped with Aviation snips, straight bladed snips, wire end plate gauge, feeler gauge, round nose pliers, firming role, hand lever shears, treadle operated guillotine and various sheet metal stakes.

AIRCRAFT ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Students are taught Electrical Fundamentals in the 1st & 2nd Semesters with practical followed by Aircraft Electrical System from 3rd Semester onwards, covering Direct Current Power supplies, Power Conversion Equipments, External & auxiliary power supplies, Power distribution in aircraft, circuit controlling devices, Circuit protection devices, systems Measuring Instruments, Warning Indication Systems, Power Utilization-motors, Power Utilization-systems, Electrical Diagrams and Identification Schemes.

The Theory classes are well complimented by Electrical Lab in our Institute with various aircraft components, mock-ups and diagrams to impart comprehensive practical training to the students.

Students will also be taken on study trips to familiarize themselves with aircraft installation and systems to various Aircraft Maintenance Organizations.

AIRCRAFT INSTRUMENT SYSTEMS

Instrument system covers the entire syllabus with equal number of hours for both Theory & Practical. Theory part contains details of construction, working principle, function/operation related to all aspects of mechanical, electrical, pneumatic instruments and flight instruments.

For practical purposes, this institute is having a well equipped & well furnished instrument lab, where each type of instrument / flight instrument is displayed to show its mechanism (explicit view) as well as there are plenty of instruments for students to do practical individually. This lab is also equipped with different type of test equipment such as dead weight tester, Altitude tester, ASI tester, Scorsby tester, where each student will have the opportunity to simulate/test the serviceable component/ equipment to acquire more practical knowledge. Apart from the above facility as this Institute is established under the banner of INSTRULAB which is a renowned five decade old Approved Maintenance Organization, our students will have extra opportunity to do practical under experienced AMEs which will have added value to their merit to get an entry to aviation industry.

AIRCRAFT COMMUNICATION, RADIO & NAVIGATION SYSTEMS

Student’s knowledge is built-up from Electronic Fundamentals & Digital Electronics, Radio Theory, Propagation of Electro Magnetic Waves, Antenna Theory, Transmission Lines, Waveguides and their components.

Radio Transmitter Principles, Radio Receiver principles are taught followed by Aircraft Radio station consisting of HF & VHF Transmitter / Receiver. Aircraft cabin interphone, service interphone, passenger Address, passenger entertainment system. Ground Crew call system, Cockpit Voice Recorder, Selective calling system are taught extensively covering Theory and practical.

Aircraft Radio Navigation systems like Automatic Direction Finder, VHF Omni- Range, Instrument Landing system and Hyperbolic Navigation systems are covered in theory as well as practical to give sound knowledge to students.

Radar principles and Aircraft Radar Navigation systems viz. Distance Measuring Equipment, ATC Transponder, Radio Altimeter, Doppler Navigation, Area Navigation, Weather Avoidance Radar, Satellite communication, Satellite Navigation, Ground Proximity Warning System, Aircraft Collision Avoidance system, present day glass cockpit, CRT Displays and Aircraft computer control systems are taught in detail to give comprehensive knowledge to students.

We have a well equipped Radio Lab where all aircraft Radio Communication, Radio Navigation, Radar Navigation equipment and various test equipment as prescribed by DGCA are held in sufficient quantity to train students practically. Use of Test equipments, wiring and checking of different electronic circuits practically are on our curriculum.

Students are also taken on study tour to familiarize themselves with Aircraft Radio, Radar Navigation Equipment installation, cockpit controls, Antenna installations on aircraft for various systems to aircraft maintenance Organizations.

SYSTEM COMPONENTS SHOP

The system components shop consists of aircraft components such as Hydraulic, Pneumatic, Fuel, Landing gear, Air-conditioning system, Aircraft controls, Oxygen, Engine, Propeller and Galley equipments with related systems diagrams for familiarization of the students with various aircraft system components and their functions.

In theory, students are taught Theory of Flight which deals with behaviour of airfoils in airflow, then about construction of aircraft wherein the whole construction of aero plane is dealt with followed by aircraft materials, ground handling and safety. In this students arte imparted knowledge of different materials used in the construction of aircraft and the ground handling of the aircraft.

Further more various maintenance practices involved and the aircraft inspection procedures adopted by the aviation industries are also in our curriculum.

Apart from the theoretical knowledge students acquire practical training and experience on the different aircraft systems through visits to the various aircraft maintenance organizations.
