What is the Syllabus and Modules for Aircraft Maintenance Engineering (AME)?

Aircraft Maintenance Engineering (AME) syllabus and modules in India are regulated by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA). The Propeller Systems module covers propeller types, components, performance, and maintenance in-depth. It includes theoretical and practical aspects, addressing design, certification, inspection, maintenance, and repair procedures, fostering a comprehensive understanding of propeller technologies.

The DGCA AME  course syllabus typically covers the following modules:

1. Module 1 – Mathematics
2. Module 2- Physics
3. Module 3 – Electrical Fundamentals
4. Module 4- Electronic Fundamentals
5. Module 5- Digital Techniques Electronic Instrument System
6. Module 6-Materials and Hardware
7. Module 7- Maintenance Practices
8. Module 8-Basic Aerodynamics
9. Module 9- Human Factors
10. Module 10- Aviation Legislation
11. Module 11A- Turbine Aeroplane Aerodynamics, Structures and Systems
12. Module 11B-Piston Aeroplane Aerodynamics, Structures and Systems
13. Module 12- Helicopter Aerodynamics, Structures and System
14. Module 13-Aircraft Aerodynamics , Structures and System
15. Module 14- Propulsion
16. Module 15- Gas Turbine Engine
17. Module 16- Piston Engine
18. Module 17-Propeller

For AME b1.1 students has to study 11 modules like Module no. 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11A , 15 , 17 .

For AME b2  students has to study 10 modules like Module no. 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 13 , 14.

These subjects are usually divided into theoretical and practical training. Students also typically undergo on-the-job training and gain hands-on experience in maintaining and repairing aircraft.
