Description
This unit of competency requires application of basic avionic scientific principles and techniques as a member of a design and development team or similar in support of the design and development of avionic applications, or as a member of a maintenance organisation engineering department. Applications include identifying the range of basic avionic scientific principles and techniques relevant to avionic engineering, selecting avionic principles and techniques for particular applications, applying avionic principles and techniques to engineering tasks, and quoting results appropriately.This unit is used in workplaces that operate under the airworthiness regulatory systems of the Australian Defence Force (ADF) and the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA).
