Elevating Skills, Mastering Precision
Advancing beyond foundational skills, our Level 3 Sheet Metal Repair course is crafted for participants seeking to deepen their expertise in sheet metal structure fabrication, inspection, and repair. This training instills confidence by navigating intricate technical drawings and the structural repair manual in adherence to manufacturer documentation.
Upon completion, participants not only deepen their practical proficiency but also gain insights into aerodynamic smoothness, repair requirements, and alterations. The course covers heat treatment processes, distinctions between drills and reamers, and the intricacies of lightning holes. Participants navigate complexities like replacement fastener and hole oversize within regulatory frameworks. Emphasizing both common and less common tools, the course ensures graduates are skilled in comprehensive inspection reporting, meeting OEM standards. Alongside mastering repair layouts, participants understand the vital role of traceability in aviation.
This course makes you ready to excel in aircraft maintenance environments. Whether contributing to a sheet metal shop or collaborating in an aircraft structures team under supervision, graduates are well-prepared for success.
