  • AMT 190: Aircraft Ice/Rain Protection Systems

    2.00 Credits
    Columbus State Community College

    Ice formation can add sufficient weight and drag to prevent safe flight. Aircraft flying into known icing conditions must utilize some means of preventing ice formation or removing ice. This course will familiarize students with anti-ice, de-ice, ice detection, and rain protections systems used on the airframe, engine, and propeller installations. Emphasis also will be placed on troubleshooting and repair of the systems and associated servicing and inspection techniques.

  • AMT 210: Aircraft Sheet Metal Structures

    5.00 Credits
    Columbus State Community College

    The primary structures of most aircraft today are made of some form of metal. An understanding of the techniques involved in forming and fabricating various components for metal structures is essential for the technician to maintain and repair airframes for continued service and reliability. In this course, students will study properties of aircraft metals, fabrication of aircraft repairs by complex bending, riveting, and use of structural adhesives. Students will design and layout repairs of metal aircraft. Students will also learn to detect, prevent, and correct corrosion of metals used in the aviation industry.

  • AMT 212: Aircraft Wood, Dope and Fabric

    3.00 Credits
    Columbus State Community College

    Although most modern aircraft structures are primarily metal or composite materials, many homebuilt and new light sport aircraft are reviving the use of fabric and wood that was common in the past. This course is an introduction to aircraft structures constructed using wood and doped fabric materials. The students will become familiar with inspection and repair techniques of wood structures. Students will also study the types of aircraft fabric covering with a focus on inspection and repair of polyester based covering.

  • AMT 215: Aircraft Environmental Controls

    3.00 Credits
    Columbus State Community College

    Aircraft fly at different times of the year, at high altitudes, and in areas of the world where the climate could be hot, cold or temperate. To compensate, they carry on-board environmental control systems. In this class, students discover how pilots and passengers remain comfortable through heating, air conditioning, pressurization, and supplemental oxygen systems and how the technician maintains them. Maintenance practices of on-board smoke, carbon monoxide, and fire detection and suppression systems are also covered.

  • AMT 220: Aircraft Fuel Systems

    3.00 Credits
    Columbus State Community College

    Fuel supply and delivery systems play one of the most important roles in the operation of aircraft engines and various airframe mounted heating and auxiliary power units. Proper installation and maintenance of these systems is essential to the safety of flight as it relates to consistent power production for propulsion and hazards associated with system failures. In this course, students will develop an understanding of aviation maintenance procedures and the tools used by the aircraft technician in the practice of fabrication and installing fluid lines and fittings and the knowledge the aircraft mechanic needs to properly inspect, service, troubleshoot and repair aircraft fuel systems associated components, and related systems and subsystems.

  • AMT 235: Aircraft Instrumentation

    4.00 Credits
    Columbus State Community College

    Aircraft instruments provide an essential part of overall cockpit situational awareness, and the information presented from instruments can sometimes be more reliable than a pilot’s senses. Technicians need a broad understanding of how the instrument systems function and the maintenance required to achieve the high reliability necessary for the pilot’s peace of mind and the safety of flight. In this course, students will study instrument systems for monitoring flight envelope, airframe systems, environment, and engine parameters. Analog and electronic display systems are covered. Practical application of troubleshooting procedures and maintenance practices associated with these devices will be accomplished with a high level of achievement expected.

  • AMT 240: Aircraft Composite Structures

    3.00 Credits
    Columbus State Community College

    For many reasons, the use of composite materials is an intelligent choice for multiple components on large aircraft as well as for the entire structure of some smaller airplanes. With the increased use of these materials today, aircraft maintenance technicians need to become familiar with the unique processes involved in fabrication and repairing composites. In this course, students will discover the principles of composites aircraft structures. The focus will be on basic composite nomenclature, inspection, and repair of nonmetallic structures. Students will learn the basic core materials, types of materials used, and repair procedures. This course will also cover maintenance practices related to windows, doors and interior furnishings.

  • AMT 245: Aircraft Landing Gear and Fluid Power Systems

    6.00 Credits
    Columbus State Community College

    The landing gear system is one of the most stressed components on any aircraft. It has to support the weight of the entire aircraft, absorb the forces of impact during landing and taxiing, and survive the tremendous localized heat produced during rollout by the brakes. For these reasons, and due to the complexity of retractable gear and nose steering systems, the maintenance technician needs to possess extensive knowledge of landing gear and associated systems. This course will include heavy focus on hydraulic and pneumatic principles, inspection and repair of air/oil struts, wheels, brakes, tires, and the landing gear system in relation to the aircraft. Students will also learn the principles of inspection, repair, and replacement of hydraulic and pneumatic rigid and nonrigid lines.
