Institution:

Columbus State Community College

Subject:

Description:

Large and small aircraft utilize rigged cables or electro-hydraulic actuators to transmit the pilot’s desired maneuvers to the aircraft’s flight controls. Also, complex devices such as entry doors, landing gear systems, and lift augmentation devices can require elaborate rigging techniques in order to function properly. In this course, students will begin with a review of the basic sciences for the aviation maintenance technician, including aerodynamics, flight stability, and theory of flight for fixed wing aircraft. In addition, advanced principles and techniques of aircraft rigging, assembly and structure alignment will be studied and put to practical use.
