Section 1 Aircraft Maintenance This section has revised to align with EASA
Engineers Licence regulation 1149, and introduces the B3
licence, practical training, and a change to the
privileges for the B2 licence holder. 66.25(b)
introduces a 10 year period for completion of
the modular examinations but the licence
must also be gained in this period to meet the
requirements of 66.30(f). Aircraft weight or
size are not applicable to a CAR 66 licence
except the Category B3 which is NOT
subdivided but is restricted to aircraft of
2000Kg MTOM and below.

Section 2 Appendices to CAR 66; Three new subject areas have been added to
Appendix I Basic Knowledge Modules 11A, 12 and 13. Additionally 9 new
requirements subjects have been added to module 13
covering various mechanical privileges.

1. GENERAL

Certifying staff holding licences issued in accordance with CAR 66 in a given category/subcategory are deemed
to have the privileges described in point 66.20(a) of this CAR corresponding to such a category/subcategory.
The basic knowledge requirements corresponding to the new privileges shall be deemed as met for the
purpose of extending such licence to a new category/sub-category.

Certifying staff holding a licence including aircraft which do not require an individual type rating may continue
to exercise his/her privileges until the first renewal or change, where the licence shall be converted to the
ratings defined in point 66.45 of this CAR.

Basic training courses complying with the requirements applicable before this Regulation applies may still
commence until 15 November 2014. Basic knowledge examinations conducted as part of these courses may
comply with the requirements applicable before this Regulation applies.

Basic knowledge examinations complying with the requirements applicable before this Regulation applies and
conducted by the GCAA or conducted by a maintenance training organisation approved in accordance with CAR
147 while not being part of a basic training course, may be conducted until 1 year after the date by which this
Regulation applies.

Type training courses and type examinations complying with the requirements applicable before this
Regulation applies shall be started and finished not later than 1 year after the date by which this Regulation
applies.

For the purpose of time limits contained in points 66.25, 66.30 and Appendix III of CAR 66 related to basic
knowledge examinations, basic experience, theoretical type training and examinations, practical training and
assessment, type examinations and on the job experience completed before this Regulation applies, the origin
of time shall be the date by which this Regulation applies.

The E-Services system which has now been fully adopted by the GCAA for the issue, renewal and type
endorsement of an aircraft maintenance engineers licences as defined in point 66.10 must be used for all
applications. All licence applications for conversion as described in point 66.70 and section 4 appendix I, must
also be made using the E-Licensing system. For the removal of limitations as described in points 66.45 and
66.50 the E-Licensing system must also be used.

2. TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

Section 1 - Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence

CAR 66.1 - Scope

This section defines the Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence and establishes the requirements for
application, issue and continuation of its validity.

CAR 66.3 - Licence categories

(a) Aircraft maintenance engineers licences include the following categories:

— Category A

— Category B1

— Category B2

— Category B3

— Category C

(b) Categories A and B1 are subdivided into subcategories relative to combinations of aeroplanes, helicopters,
turbine and piston engines. The subcategories are:

— A1 and B1.1 Aeroplanes Turbine

— A2 and B1.2 Aeroplanes Piston

— A3 and B1.3 Helicopters Turbine

— A4 and B1.4 Helicopters Piston

(c) Category B3 is applicable to piston-engine non-pressurised aeroplanes of 2000kg MTOM and below.

GM 66.3 - Licence categories

Individual Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence holders need not be restricted to a single category. Provided
that each qualification requirement is satisfied, any combination of categories may be granted.

CAR 66.5 - Aircraft Groups

For the purpose of ratings on aircraft maintenance engineers licences aircraft shall be classified in the following
groups.

1. Group 1: Complex motor powered aircraft as well as multiple engine helicopters, aeroplanes with maximum
certified operating altitude exceeding FL290, aircraft equipped with fly-by-wire systems and other aircraft
requiring an aircraft type rating when defined so by the GCAA.

Issue: 02 Page 8 of 198 November 2013

Rev: 00 November 2013
 CAR PART II Ch. 7 - CAR 66 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ENGINEER LICENSING
2. Group 2: Aircraft other than those in group 1 belonging to the following subgroups:

— sub-group 2a: single turbo-propeller engine aeroplanes

— sub-group 2b: single turbine engine helicopters

— sub-group 2c: single piston engine helicopters

3. Group 3: Piston engine aeroplanes other than those in group 1.

CAR 66.10 - Application

(a) An application for an Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence or amendment to such licence shall be made
using the AMEL E-Licensing services application and/or any other assigned form and in a manner

(b) Each application shall be supported by documentation to demonstrate compliance with the applicable
theoretical knowledge, practical training and experience requirements at the time of application.

AMC 66.10 - Application

1. Maintenance experience should be written up in a manner that the reader has a reasonable
understanding of where, when and what maintenance constitutes the experience. A task-by- task account
is not necessary but at the same time a bland statement “X year’s maintenance experience completed” is
not acceptable. A logbook of maintenance experience is desirable and the GCAA require such a logbook to
be kept. It is acceptable to cross-refer in the E-Licensing system to other documents containing
information on maintenance.

2. Applicants claiming the maximum reduction in 66.30(a) total experience based upon successful
completion of CAR 147 approved basic training should include the CAR 147 certificate of recognition for
approved basic training.

3. Applicants claiming reduction in 66.30(a) total experience based upon successful completion of technical
training in an organisation or institute recognised by the GCAA as a competent organisation or institute
should include the relevant certificate of successful completion of training.

CAR 66.15 - Eligibility

An applicant for an Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence shall be at least 18 years of age.

AMC 66.15 – Eligibility

Should either be

— A UAE/GCC (Gulf Co-Operation Council) national or

— A legal employee of UAE approved organisation with proper justification for a need to hold a UAE

CAR 66.20 - Privileges

(a) The following privileges shall apply:

1. A category A aircraft maintenance engineers licence permits the holder to issue certificates of release
to service following minor scheduled line maintenance and simple defect rectification within the limits
of tasks specifically endorsed on the certification authorisation referred to in point 145.35 of CAR-145.
The certification privileges shall be restricted to work that the licence holder has personally performed
in the maintenance organisation that issued the certification authorisation.

2. A category B1 aircraft maintenance engineers licence shall permit the holder to issue certificates of
release to service and to act as B1 support staff following:

— Maintenance performed on aircraft structure, powerplant and mechanical and electrical systems,

Category B1 includes the corresponding A subcategory.

3. A category B2 aircraft maintenance engineers licence shall permit the holder:

(i) to issue certificates of release to service and to act as B2 support staff for following:
— maintenance performed on avionic and electrical systems, and

— electrical and avionics tasks within powerplant and mechanical systems, requiring only simple tests
to prove their serviceability; and

(ii) to issue certificates of release to service following minor scheduled line maintenance and simple
defect rectification within the limits of tasks specifically endorsed on the certification authorisation
referred to in point 145.35 of CAR-145. This certification privilege shall be restricted to work that
the licence holder has personally performed in the maintenance organisation which issued the
certification authorisation and limited to the ratings already endorsed in the B2 licence.

The category B2 licence does not include any A subcategory.

4. A category B3 aircraft maintenance engineers licence shall permit the holder to issue certificates of
release to service and to act as B3 support staff for:
— Maintenance performed on aeroplane structure, powerplant and mechanical and electrical systems,

— work on avionic systems requiring only simple tests to prove their serviceability and not requiring

entirety.

Issue: 02 Page 10 of 198 November 2013

Rev: 00 November 2013
 CAR PART II Ch. 7 - CAR 66 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ENGINEER LICENSING
(b) The holder of an aircraft maintenance engineers licence may not exercise its privileges unless:

1. in compliance with the applicable requirements of CAR M and CAR-145; and

2. in the preceding 2-year period he/she has, either had 6 months of maintenance experience in
accordance with the privileges granted by the aircraft maintenance engineers licence or, met the
provision for the issue of the appropriate privileges; and

3. he/she has the adequate competence to certify maintenance on the corresponding aircraft; and

4. He/she is able to read, write and communicate to an understandable level in the language(s) in which
the technical documentation and procedures necessary to support the issue of the certificate of
release to service are written.

AMC 66.20(b)2 - Privileges

The 6 months maintenance experience in 2 years should be understood as consisting of two elements,
duration and nature of the experience. The minimum to meet the requirements for these elements may vary
depending on the size and complexity of the aircraft and type of operation and maintenance.

1. Duration:

Within an approved maintenance organisation:

— 6 months continuous employment within the same organisation; or

— 6 months split up into different blocks, employed within the same or in different organisations.

The 6 months period can be replaced by 100 days of maintenance experience in accordance with the
privileges, whether they have been performed within an approved organisation or as independent certifying
staff according to CAR M.801(b)2 or as a combination thereof.

When the licence holder maintains and releases aircraft in accordance with CAR M.801 (b) 2, in certain
circumstances this number of days may even be reduced by 50% when agreed in advance by the GCAA. These
circumstances consider the cases where the holder of a CAR 66 licence happens to be the owner of an aircraft
and carries out maintenance on his own aircraft, or where a licence holder maintains an aircraft operated for
low utilisation, that does not allow the licence holder to accumulate the required experience. This reduction
should not be combined with the 20% reduction permitted when carrying out technical support, or
maintenance planning, continuing airworthiness management or engineering activities. To avoid a too long
period without experience, the working days should be spread over the intended 6 months period.

2. Nature of the experience:

Depending on the category of the Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence, the following activities are
considered relevant for maintenance experience:

— Servicing;

— Inspection;

— Operational and functional testing;

— Trouble-shooting;

Issue: 02 Page 11 of 198 November 2013

Rev: 00 November 2013
 CAR PART II Ch. 7 - CAR 66 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ENGINEER LICENSING
— Repairing;

— Modifying;

— Changing component;

— Supervising these activities;

— Releasing aircraft to service.

For category A certifying staff, the experience should include exercising the privileges, by means of performing
tasks related to the authorisation on at least one aircraft type for each licence subcategory. This means tasks
as mentioned in AMC 145.30(g), including servicing, component changes and simple defect rectifications.

For category B1, B2 and B3 for every aircraft type rating included in the authorisation the experience should
be on that particular aircraft or on a similar aircraft within the same licence (sub) category. Two aircraft can be
considered as similar when they have similar technology, construction and comparable systems, which means
equally equipped with the following (as applicable to the licence category):

— Propulsion systems (piston or turboprop or turbofan or turbo shaft or jet-engine or push propellers);
and

— Flight control systems (only mechanical controls or hydro-mechanically powered controls or electro-
mechanically powered controls); and

— Avionic systems (analog systems or digital systems); and

— Structure (manufactured of metal or composite or wood).

For licences endorsed with (sub) group ratings;

— In the case of a B1 licence endorsed with sub group ratings (either manufacturer sub group or sub full
group)as defined in CAR 66.45 the holder should show experience on at least one aircraft type per sub
group and per aircraft structure (metal, composite, wood).

— In the case of a B2 licence endorsed with sub group ratings (either manufacturer sub group or full
group) as defined in CAR 66.45 the holder should show experience on at least one aircraft type per sub
group.

— In the case of a B3 licence endorsed with the rating “piston-engine non-pressurised aeroplanes of 2 000
kg MTOM and below” as defined in 66.45, the holder should show experience on at least one aircraft
type per aircraft structure (metal, composite or wood).

For category C, the experience should cover at least one of the aircraft types endorsed on the licence.

For a combination of categories, the experience should include some activities of the nature shown in
paragraph 2 in each category.

A maximum of 20% of the experience duration required may be replaced by the following relevant activities
on an aircraft type of similar technology, construction and with comparable systems:

— Aircraft maintenance related training as an instructor/assessor or as a student;

— Maintenance technical support/engineering;

Issue: 02 Page 12 of 198 November 2013

Rev: 00 November 2013
 CAR PART II Ch. 7 - CAR 66 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ENGINEER LICENSING
— Maintenance management/planning.

The experience should be documented in an individual log book or in any other recording system (which may
be an automated one) containing the following data:

— Date;

— Aircraft type;

— Aircraft identification i.e. registration;

— ATA chapter;

— Operation performed i.e. 100 FH check, MLG wheel change, engine oil check and complement, SB
embodiment, trouble shooting, structural repair, STC embodiment...;

— Type of maintenance i.e. base, line;

— Type of activity i.e. perform, supervise, release;

— Category used A, B1, B2, B3 or C.

— Duration in days or partial-days.

AMC66.20(b)3- Privileges
The wording “has the adequate competence to certify maintenance on the corresponding aircraft” means that
the licence holder and, if applicable, the organisation where he/she is contracted/employed, should ensure
that he/she has acquired the appropriate knowledge, skills, attitude and experience to release the aircraft
being maintained. This is essential because some systems and technology present in the particular aircraft
being maintained may not have been covered by the training/examination/experience required to obtain the
licence and ratings.

This is typically the case, among others, in the following situations:

• Type ratings which have been endorsed on a licence in accordance with Appendix I to AMC to CAR 66
“List of Type Ratings” after attending type training/on-the-job experience which did not cover all the
models/variants included in such rating. For example, a licence endorsed with the rating Airbus
A318/A319/A320/A321 (CFM56) after attending type training/on-the-job training covering only the
Airbus 320 (CFM56).

• Type ratings which have been endorsed on a licence in accordance with Appendix I to AMC to CAR 66
“List of Type Ratings” after a new variant has been added to the rating in Appendix I, without
performing difference training. For example, a licence endorsed with the rating Boeing 737-
600/700/800/900 for a person who already had the rating Boeing 737-600/700/800, without
performing any difference training for the 737-900.

• Work being carried out on a model/variant for which the technical design and maintenance
techniques have significantly evolved from the original model used in the type training/on-the-job
training.

• Specific technology and options selected by each customer which may not have been covered by the
type training/on-the-job training.

Issue: 02 Page 13 of 198 November 2013

Rev: 00 November 2013
 CAR PART II Ch. 7 - CAR 66 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ENGINEER LICENSING
• Changes in the basic knowledge requirements of Appendix I to CAR 66 not requiring re- examination of
existing licence holders (grandfathered privileges).

• The endorsement of group/subgroup ratings based on experience on a representative number of

tasks/aircraft or based on type training/examination on a representative number of aircraft.

• Persons meeting the requirements of 6 months of experience every 2 years only on certain similar
aircraft types as allowed by AMC 66.20(b)2.

• Persons holding a CAR 66 licence with limitations, obtained through conversion of qualifications
(66.70), where such limitations are going to be lifted after performing the corresponding basic
knowledge examinations. In this case, the type ratings endorsed in the licence may have been
obtained in the national system without covering all the aircraft systems (because of the previous
limitations) and there will be a need to assess and, if applicable, to train this person on the missing
systems.

GM 66.20(a) - Privileges

1. The following definitions apply:

Electrical system means the aircraft electrical power supply source, plus the distribution system to the
different components contained in the aircraft and relevant connectors. Lighting systems are also
included in this definition. When working on cables and connectors which are part of these electrical
systems, the following typical practices are included in the privileges:

 Continuity, insulation and bonding techniques and testing;

 Crimping and testing of crimped joints;

 Connector pin removal and insertion;

 Wiring protection techniques.

Avionics system means an aircraft system that transfers, processes, displays or stores analogue or digital
data using data lines, data buses, coaxial cables, wireless or other data transmission medium, and
includes the system’s components and connectors. Examples of avionics systems include the following:

 Autoflight;

 Communication, Radar and Navigation;

 Instruments (see NOTE below);

 In-Flight Entertainment Systems;

 Integrated Modular Avionics (IMA);

 On-Board Maintenance Systems;

 Information Systems;

 Fly-by-Wire Systems (related to ATA27 “Flight Controls”);

Issue: 02 Page 14 of 198 November 2013
Rev: 00 November 2013
 CAR PART II Ch. 7 - CAR 66 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ENGINEER LICENSING
 Fibre Optic Control Systems.

NOTE: Instruments are formally included in the privileges of the B2 licence holders. However,
maintenance on electromechanical and pitot-static components may also be released by a B1 licence
holder.

Simple test means a test described in approved maintenance data and meeting all the following criteria:

 The serviceability of the system can be verified using aircraft controls, switches, Built-in Test
Equipment (BITE), Central Maintenance Computer (CMC) or external test equipment not involving
special training.

 The outcome of the test is a unique go–no go indication or parameter, which can be a single value or a
value within an interval tolerance. No interpretation of the test result or interdependence of different
values is allowed.

 The test does not involve more than 10 actions as described in the approved maintenance data (not
including those required to configure the aircraft prior to the test, i.e. jacking, flaps down, etc., or to
return the aircraft to its initial configuration). Pushing a control, switch or button, and reading the
corresponding outcome may be considered as a single step even if the maintenance data shows them
separated.

Troubleshooting means the procedures and actions necessary to identify the root cause of a defect or
malfunction using approved maintenance data. It may include the use of BITE or external test equipment.

Line maintenance means any maintenance that is carried out before flight to ensure that the aircraft is fit
for the intended flight. It may include:

 Trouble shooting;

 Defect rectification;

 Component replacement with the use of external test equipment, if required.

 Component replacement may include components such as engines and propellers;

 Scheduled maintenance and/or checks including visual inspections that will detect obvious
unsatisfactory conditions/discrepancies but do not require extensive in-depth inspection. It may also
include internal structure, systems and powerplant items which are visible through quick opening
access panels/doors;

 minor repairs and modifications which do not require extensive disassembly and can be accomplished
by simple means;

 For temporary or occasional cases (Airworthiness Directives, hereinafter AD; service bulletins,
hereinafter SB) the quality manager may accept base maintenance tasks to be performed by a line
maintenance organisation provided all requirements are fulfilled. The GCAA will prescribe the
conditions under which these tasks may be performed.

Issue: 02 Page 15 of 198 November 2013

Rev: 00 November 2013
 CAR PART II Ch. 7 - CAR 66 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ENGINEER LICENSING
Base Maintenance means any task falling outside the criteria are given above for Line Maintenance.

NOTE: Aircraft maintained in accordance with “progressive” type programmes need to be individually
assessed in relation to this paragraph. In principle, the decision to allow some “progressive” checks to be
carried out is determined by the assessment that all tasks within the particular check can be carried out
safely to the required standards at the designated line maintenance station.

2. The category B3 licence does not include any A subcategory. Nevertheless, this does not prevent the B3
licence holder from releasing maintenance tasks typical of the A1.2 subcategory for piston-engine non-
pressurised aeroplanes of 2 000 kg MTOM and below, within the limitations contained in the B3 licence.

The category C licence permits certification of scheduled base maintenance by the issue of a single certificate
of release to service for the complete aircraft after the completion of all such maintenance. The basis for this
certification is that the maintenance has been carried out by competent mechanics and category B1, B2 and B3
support staffs, as appropriate, have signed for the maintenance tasks under their respective specialisation. The
principal function of the category C certifying staff is to ensure that all required maintenance has been called
up and signed off by the category B1, B2 and B3 support staff, as appropriate, before issue of the certificate of
release to service. Only category C personnel who also hold category B1, B2 or B3 qualifications may perform
both roles in base maintenance

GM 66.20(b) 2 - Privileges
The sentence “met the provision for the issue of the appropriate privileges” included in 66.20(b)2 means
that during the previous 2 years the person has met all the requirements for the endorsement of the
corresponding aircraft rating (for example, in the case of aircraft in Group 1, theoretical plus practical element
plus, if applicable, on-the-job training). This supersedes the need for 6 months of experience for the first 2
years. However, the requirement of 6 months of experience in the preceding 2 years will need to be met after
the second year.

GM 66.20(b) 4 - Privileges
1. Holders of a CAR 66 Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence may only exercise certification privileges
when they have a general knowledge of the language used within the maintenance environment
including knowledge of common aeronautical terms in the language. The level of knowledge should be
such that the licence holder is able to:

— read and understand the instructions and technical manuals used for the performance of
maintenance;

— make written technical entries and any maintenance documentation entries, which can be understood
by those with whom they are normally required to communicate;

— read and understand the maintenance organisation procedures;

— communicate at such a level as to prevent any misunderstanding when exercising certification

privileges.

2. In all cases, the level of understanding should be compatible with the level of certification privileges
exercised.

to a category C holding a B1 or B2 licence demonstrate at least 12 months experience as a B1 or B2
support staff.

3. A skilled worker is a person who has successfully completed a course of training, acceptable to the GCAA,
involving the manufacture, repair, overhaul or inspection of mechanical, electrical or electronic
equipment. The training would include the use of tools and measuring devices.

4. Maintenance experience on operating aircraft:

— Means the experience of being involved in maintenance tasks on aircraft which are being operated by
airlines, air taxi organisations, owners, etc.;

— Should cover a wide range of tasks in length, complexity and variety;

— Aims at gaining sufficient experience in the real environment of maintenance as opposed to only the
training school environment;

— May be gained within different types of maintenance organisations (CAR 145, M.A. Subpart F, Part-145,
FAR-145, etc.) or under the supervision of independent certifying staff;

— May be combined with CAR 147 approved training so that periods of training can be intermixed with
periods of experience, similar to an apprenticeship.

AMC 66.30(d) - Basic experience requirements

To be considered as recent experience; at least 50% of the required 12 month experience should be gained
within the 12 month period prior to the date of application for the Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence. The
remainder of the experience should have been gained within the 7 year period prior to application. It must be

aircraft maintenance experience gained in armed forces, coast guards, police etc. or in aircraft
manufacturing.

CAR 66.40 - Continued validity of the Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence

(a) The Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence becomes invalid eight years after its last issue, unless the
holder submits his/her Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence to the GCAA, in order to verify that the
information contained in the licence is the same as that contained in the GCAA records.

(b) The holder of an Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence shall complete the relevant fields in the E-
Licensing system and submit it with the holder’s copy of the licence to the GCAA, unless the holder works
in a maintenance organisation approved in accordance with CAR 145 that has a procedure in its exposition
whereby such organisation may submit the necessary documentation on behalf of the Aircraft
Maintenance Engineers Licence holder.

(c) Any certification privileges based upon an Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence becomes invalid as
soon as the Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence is invalid.

(d) The Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence is only valid when issued and/or amended by the GCAA and
when the holder has signed the document.

GM 66.40 - Continued validity of the Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence

Validity of the Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence is not affected by recency of maintenance experience
whereas the validity of the CAR 66.20 privileges is affected by maintenance experience as specified in CAR
66.20(a).

GM 66.40(a) - Continued Validity of the Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence

For a licence that has remained expired for more than two years, the holder will be required to undergo
examination in the current GCAA Air Legislation prior to renewal.

CAR 66.45 - Endorsement with aircraft ratings

(a) In order to be entitled to exercise certification privileges on a specific aircraft type, the holder of an
Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence need to have his/her licence endorsed with the relevant aircraft
ratings.

— For category B1, B2 or C the relevant aircraft ratings are the following:

1. For group 1 aircraft, the appropriate aircraft type rating.

2. For group 2 aircraft, the appropriate aircraft type rating, manufacturer sub-group rating or full
sub-group rating.

3. For group 3 aircraft, the appropriate aircraft type rating or full group rating.

— For category B3, the relevant rating is ‘piston-engine non-pressurised aeroplanes of 2 000 kg MTOM
and below’.
— For category A, no rating is required, subject to compliance with the requirements of point 145.35 of
CAR-145.
Issue: 02 Page 20 of 198 November 2013
Rev: 00 November 2013
 CAR PART II Ch. 7 - CAR 66 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ENGINEER LICENSING

(b) The endorsement of aircraft type ratings requires the satisfactory completion of the relevant category B1,
B2 or C aircraft type training.

(c) In addition to the requirement of point (b), the endorsement of the first aircraft type rating within a given
category/sub-category requires satisfactory completion of the corresponding On the Job Training, as
described in Appendix III to CAR 66.

(d) By derogation from points (b) and (c), for group 2 and 3 aircraft, aircraft type ratings may also be granted
after:

— satisfactory completion of the relevant category B1, B2 or C aircraft type examination described in
Appendix III to CAR 66, and

— in the case of B1 and B2 category, demonstration of practical experience on the aircraft type. In that
case, the practical experience shall include a representative cross section of maintenance activities
relevant to the licence category.

In the case of a category C rating for a person qualified by holding an academic degree as specified in point
66.30(a)(5), the first relevant aircraft type examination shall be at the category B1 or B2 level.

(e) For group 2 aircraft:

1. the endorsement of manufacturer sub-group ratings for category B1 and C licence holders requires
complying with the aircraft type rating requirements of at least two aircraft types from the same
manufacturer which combined are representative of the applicable manufacturer sub-group;

2. the endorsement of full sub-group ratings for category B1 and C licence holders requires complying
with the aircraft type rating requirements of at least three aircraft types from different manufacturers
which combined are representative of the applicable sub-group;

3. the endorsement of manufacturer sub-groups and full sub-group ratings for category B2 licence
holders requires demonstration of practical experience which shall include a representative cross
section of maintenance activities relevant to the licence category and to the applicable aircraft sub-
group.

(f) For group 3 aircraft:

1. the endorsement of the full group 3 rating for category B1, B2 and C licence holders requires
demonstration of practical experience, which shall include a representative cross section of
maintenance activities relevant to the licence category and to the group 3.

2. for category B1, unless the applicant provides evidence of appropriate experience, the group 3 rating
shall be subject to the following limitations, which shall be endorsed on the licence:

— pressurised aeroplanes

— metal structure aeroplanes

— composite structure aeroplanes

— wooden structure aeroplanes

— aeroplanes with metal tubing structure covered with fabric.

Issue: 02 Page 21 of 198 November 2013
Rev: 00 November 2013
 CAR PART II Ch. 7 - CAR 66 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ENGINEER LICENSING

(g) For the B3 licence:

1. the endorsement of the rating "piston-engine non-pressurised aeroplanes of 2 000 kg MTOM and
below" requires demonstration of practical experience which shall include a representative cross-
section of maintenance activities relevant to the licence category.

2. unless the applicant provides evidence of appropriate experience, the rating referred to in point 1 shall
be subject to the following limitations, which shall be endorsed on the licence:

— wooden structure aeroplanes

— aeroplanes with metal tubing structure covered with fabric

— metal structure aeroplanes

— composite structure aeroplanes.

AMC 66.45(a) - Endorsement with aircraft ratings

Aircraft type ratings will only be endorsed if the aircraft type is registered in the UAE.

AMC 66.45(e) - Endorsement with aircraft ratings

1. For the granting of manufacturer subgroup ratings for Group 2 aircraft, for B1 and C licence holders, the
sentence “at least two aircraft types from the same manufacturer which combined are representative of
the applicable manufacturer subgroup” means that the selected aircraft types should cover all the
technologies relevant to the manufacturer subgroup in the following areas:

— Flight control systems (mechanical controls/hydro mechanically powered controls/ electromechanically

powered controls); and

— Avionic systems (analogue systems/digital systems); and

— Structure (manufactured of metal/composite/wood).

In cases where there are very different aircraft types within the same manufacturer Subgroup, it may be
necessary to cover more than two aircraft types to ensure adequate representation.

For this purpose it may be possible to use aircraft types from the same manufacturer Classified in Group 1 as
long as the selected aircraft belong to the same licence subcategory for which the rating will be endorsed.

2. For the granting of full subgroup ratings for Group 2 aircraft, for B1 and C licence holders, the sentence “at
least three aircraft types from different manufacturers which combined are representative of the
applicable subgroup” means that the selected aircraft types should cover all the technologies relevant to
the manufacturer subgroup in the following areas:

— Flight control systems (mechanical controls/hydro mechanically powered controls/ electromechanically

powered controls); and

— Avionic systems (analogue systems/digital systems); and

Issue: 02 Page 22 of 198 November 2013

Rev: 00 November 2013
 CAR PART II Ch. 7 - CAR 66 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ENGINEER LICENSING

— Structure (manufactured of metal/composite/wood).

In cases where there are very different aircraft types within the same subgroup, it may be necessary to cover
more than three aircraft types to ensure adequate representation. For this purpose it may be possible to use
aircraft types from different manufacturers classified in Group 1 as long as the selected aircraft belong to the
same licence subcategory for which the rating will be endorsed.

3. For manufacturer subgroup ratings, the term “manufacturer” means the TC holder defined in the
certification data sheet, which is reflected in the list of type ratings in Appendix I to AMC to CAR 66.

In the case of an aircraft rating where the type rating refers to a TC holder made of a combination of two
manufacturers which produce a similar aircraft (i.e. AGUSTA/BELL HELICOPTER TEXTRON or any case of aircraft
similarly built by another manufacturer), this combination should be considered as one manufacturer.

As a consequence:

 When a licence holder gets a manufacturer type or a manufacturer subgroup rating made of a
combination of manufacturers, it covers the combination of such manufacturers.

 When a licence holder who intends to endorse a full subgroup rating selects three aircraft from
different manufacturers, this means from different combinations of manufacturers as applicable.

AMC 66.45(d),(e)3,(f)1 and (g)1 - Endorsement with aircraft ratings

1. The “practical experience” should cover a representative cross section including at least 50 % of tasks
contained in Appendix II to AMC relevant to the licence category and to the applicable aircraft type ratings
or aircraft (sub)group ratings being endorsed. This experience should cover tasks from each paragraph of
the Appendix II list. Other tasks than those in the Appendix II may be considered as a replacement when
they are relevant. In the case of (sub)group ratings, this experience may be shown by covering one or
several aircraft types of the applicable (sub)group and may include experience on aircraft classified in
group 1, 2 and/or 3 as long as the experience is relevant. The practical experience should be obtained
under the supervision of authorised certifying staff.

2. In the case of endorsement of individual type ratings for Group 2 and Group 3 aircraft, for the second
aircraft type of each manufacturer (sub)group the practical experience should be reduced to 30 % of the
tasks contained in Appendix II to AMC relevant to the licence category and to the applicable aircraft type.
For subsequent aircraft types of each manufacturer (sub)group this should be reduced to 20 %.

3. Practical experience should be demonstrated by the submission of records or a logbook showing the
Appendix II tasks performed by the applicant. Typical data to be recorded are similar to those described in
AMC 66.20(b)2.

GM 66.45(b) - Endorsement with aircraft ratings

An aircraft type rating includes all the aircraft models/variants listed in column 2 of Appendix 1 to AMC to CAR
66.

When a person already holds a type rating on the licence and such type rating is amended in the Appendix I to
AMC to CAR 66 in order to include additional models/variants, there is no need for additional type training for
the purpose of amending the type rating in the licence. The rating should be amended to include the new
variants, upon request by the applicant, without additional requirements. However, it is the responsibility of

Issue: 02 Page 23 of 198 November 2013

Rev: 00 November 2013
 CAR PART II Ch. 7 - CAR 66 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ENGINEER LICENSING
the licence holder and, if applicable, the maintenance organisation where he/she is employed to comply
with 66.20(b)3, 145.35(a) and M.607(a), as applicable, before he/she exercises certification privileges.

Similarly, type training courses covering certain, but not all the models/variants included in a type rating, are
valid for the purpose of endorsing the full type rating.

GM 66.45 - Endorsement with aircraft ratings

The following table shows a summary of the aircraft rating requirements contained in 66.45, 66.50 and
Appendix III to CAR 66.

The table contains the following:

 The different aircraft groups;

 For each licence (sub)category, which ratings are possible (at the choice of the applicant):

 Individual type ratings;

 Full and/or Manufacturer (sub)group ratings;

 For each rating option, which are the qualification options;

 For the B1.2 licence (Group 3 aircraft) and for the B3 licence (piston-engine nonpressurised aeroplanes
of 2 000 kg MTOM and below), which are the possible limitations to be included in the licence if not
sufficient experience can be demonstrated in those areas.

Note: OJE means “On-the-Job Experience” (Appendix III to CAR 66, Section 6) and is only required for the first
aircraft rating in the licence (sub)category.

CAR 66.50 – Limitations

(a) Limitations introduced on an Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence are exclusions from the certification
privileges and affect the aircraft in its entirety.

(b) For limitations referred to in point 66.45, limitations shall be removed upon:

1. demonstration of appropriate experience; or

2. after a satisfactory practical assessment performed by the GCAA.

(c) For limitations referred to in point 66.70, limitations shall be removed upon satisfactory completion of
examination on those modules/subjects defined in the applicable conversion report.

AMC 66.50(b) – Limitations

1. The appropriate experience required to remove the limitations referred to in 66.45(f) and (g) should
consist of the performance of a variety of tasks appropriate to the limitations under the supervision of
authorised certifying staff. This should include the tasks required by a scheduled annual inspection.
Alternatively, this experience may also be gained, if agreed by the GCAA, by theoretical and practical
training provided by the manufacturer, as long as an assessment is further carried out and recorded by
this manufacturer.

2. It may be acceptable to have this experience on just one aircraft type, provided that this type is
representative of the (sub)group in relation to the limitation being removed.

3. The application for the limitation removal should be supported by a record of experience signed by the
authorised certifying staff or by an assessment signed by the manufacturer after completion of the
applicable theoretical and practical training.

CAR 66.55 - Evidence of qualification

Personnel exercising certification privileges as well as support staff shall produce their licence, as evidence of
qualification, within 24 hours upon request from an authorised person.

CAR 66.70 - Conversion provisions

(a) The holder of a certifying staff qualification valid, prior to the date of entry into force of this CAR shall be
issued an Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence by the GCAA without further examination subject to the
conditions specified in the conversion report.

(b) A person undergoing a certifying staff qualification process valid, prior to the date of entry into force of
this CAR may continue to be qualified. The holder of a certifying staff qualification gained following such
qualification process shall be issued an Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence without further
examination subject to the conditions specified in the conversion report.

(c) Where necessary, the Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence shall contain limitations in accordance with
point 66.50 to reflect the differences between (i) the scope of the certifying staff qualification valid before
the entry into force of this Regulation and (ii) the basic knowledge requirements and the basic
examination standards laid down in Appendix I and II to this CAR.

Issue: 02 Page 26 of 198 November 2013

Rev: 00 November 2013
 CAR PART II Ch. 7 - CAR 66 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ENGINEER LICENSING
(d) By derogation to paragraph (c) for aircraft not involved in commercial air transport other than large
aircraft, the Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence shall contain limitations in accordance with point
66.50 to ensure that the certifying staff privileges valid before the entry into force of this Regulation and
the privileges of the converted CAR 66 Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence remain the same.

GM 66.70 - Conversion provisions

1. As described in point 66.70, the conversion provisions apply to the holder of a certifying staff qualification
valid in an ICAO State prior to the date of entry into force of CAR 66. The sentence the holder of a
certifying staff qualification valid in an ICAO State, means any person who had a qualification valid in that
ICAO State allowing that person the performance of activities identical to the privileges of “certifying
staff” contained in CAR 66. This means that the signature of that person was sufficient to declare that the
maintenance had been properly performed and the aircraft was ready for service and fit for flight in
respect to such maintenance.

This should not been mistaken for the responsibilities linked to the airworthiness review, which was
performed at different periods (typically varying from 6 months to 3 years) in the national systems. This is
an activity which is performed at very specific points of time and not after every maintenance activity. As
an airworthiness review (or equivalent term used in the national systems) is not performed after every
maintenance event before the aircraft takes flight, an airworthiness review cannot be considered as a
maintenance release. This means that the conversion provisions described in 66.70 are not applicable to
persons performing airworthiness review functions unless their signature was required after every
maintenance event before the aircraft can take flight.

2. The conversion applies to “certifying staff qualifications” such as, for example:

 Holding a national licence (or completed the process to obtain such a national licence);

 Having completed a qualification process defined by the GCAA to become certifying staff;

 Having completed the qualification requirements for certifying staff within a maintenance
organisation, as defined in their procedures.

This does not mean that in order to be entitled to a conversion process, the applicant has to be exercising
certification privileges. A person may hold a “certifying staff qualification” while not having certification
privileges (or while exercising very limited certification privileges below his/her qualification) for different
reasons such as, for example, the following:

 The person is working as “support staff” in the base maintenance environment;

 The person has been authorised only for a very limited range of tasks (lower than what he/she would
be entitled if his/her qualification is considered) since the person is working in a line station where the
scope of tasks is very limited;

 The person holds a licence with a wider scope than the scope of the organisation where he/she is
employed;

 The person is working outside the aviation industry or is temporarily on leave due to different reasons
(medical, personal, etc.).

Issue: 02 Page 27 of 198 November 2013

Rev: 00 November 2013
 CAR PART II Ch. 7 - CAR 66 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ENGINEER LICENSING
These persons are entitled to have the conversion performed in accordance with the full scope of their
qualification and the full privileges that they would be entitled to hold on the basis of such qualification.

As described in point 66.70, certifying staff qualifications eligible for conversion are those valid prior to the
date of entry into force of CAR 66, which means those qualifications valid before the 01 July 2011 for
aircraft above and below 5 700 kg MTOM.

Nevertheless, since the B3 licence did not exist at those dates, certifying staff qualifications eligible for
conversion to a B3 licence are those valid before 01 December 2013, which is the date when the GCAA has
the obligation to start issuing such licences.

3. Although only those certifying staff qualifications gained prior to the dates indicated above are eligible for
conversion, this does not mean that the application for conversion has to be submitted prior to those
dates. The applicant is entitled to have the conversion performed irrespective of when he/she applies for
conversion.

4. A certifying staff qualification can be subject to more than one conversion process and can also be
converted to more than one licence (with any applicable limitations). This could be the case, for example,
for a person who already had the certifying staff qualification converted to a B1.2 licence with limitations
linked to some missing elements of the CAR 66 Appendix I and II standard (following 66.70(c)). This
person would be entitled to apply and have his/her certifying staff qualification converted to a B1.2 or a
B3 licence on the basis of 66.70(d), which would mean that there is no need to compare with the CAR 66
Appendix I and II standard, introducing only those limitations required to maintain the existing privileges.

GM 66.70(c) - Conversion provisions

For example, a limitation could be where a person holds a pre-existing certifying staff qualification which
covered, to the standard of CAR 66 Appendix I and II, all the modules/subjects corresponding to the B1 licence
except for electrical power systems. This person would receive a CAR 66 Aircraft Maintenance Engineers
Licence in the B1 category with a limitation (exclusion) on electrical power systems.

For removal of limitations, refer to 66.50(c).

GM 66.70(d) - Conversion provisions

In the case of aircraft not involved in commercial air transport other than large aircraft, an example of
limitations could be where a person holds a pre CAR 66 qualification which covered privileges to release work
performed on aircraft structures, powerplant, mechanical and aircraft above 2000kg MTOM, pressurised
aircraft and aircraft equipped with retractable landing gear. This person would receive a CAR 66 Aircraft
Maintenance Engineers Licence in the B1.2 or B3 (sub) category with the following limitations (exclusions):

 Aircraft involved in commercial air transport (this limitation always exists);

 Aircraft above 2 000 kg MTOM;
 Pressurised aircraft;
 Aircraft equipped with retractable landing gear.

3. Aircraft type training standard

Although aircraft type training includes both theoretical and practical elements, courses can be
approved for the theoretical element, the practical element or for a combination of both.

3.1. Theoretical element

(a) Objective:

On completion of a theoretical training course the student shall be able to demonstrate, to the
levels identified in the Appendix III syllabus, the detailed theoretical knowledge of the aircraft’s
applicable systems, structure, operations, maintenance, repair, and troubleshooting according to
approved maintenance data. The student shall be able to demonstrate the use of manuals and
approved procedures, including the knowledge of relevant inspections and limitations.

(b) Level of training:

Training levels are those levels defined in point 2 above.

After the first type course for category C certifying staff all subsequent courses need only be to level
1.
During a level 3 theoretical training, level 1 and 2 training material may be used to teach the full
scope of the chapter if required. However, during the training the majority of the course material
and training time shall be at the higher level.

(c) Duration:

The theoretical training minimum tuition hours are contained in the following table:

(**) For helicopters in group 2 the minimum duration can be reduced by 30%

For the purpose of the table above, a tuition hour means 60 minutes of teaching and excludes any breaks,
examination, revision, preparation and aircraft visit.

These hours apply only to theoretical courses for complete aircraft/engine combinations according to the
type rating as defined by the GCAA.

 CAR PART II Ch. 7 - CAR 66 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ENGINEER LICENSING

(d) Justification of course duration:

Training courses carried out in a maintenance training organisation approved in accordance with CAR
147 and courses directly approved by the GCAA shall justify their hour duration and the coverage of
the full syllabus by a training needs analysis based on:
— the design of the aircraft type, its maintenance needs and the types of operation,

— detailed analysis of applicable chapters — see contents table in point 3.1(e) below,

— detailed competency analysis showing that the objectives as stated in point 3.1(a) above are fully
met.

Where the training needs analysis shows that more hours are needed, course lengths shall be longer
than the minimum specified in the table.

Similarly, tuition hours of differences courses or other training course combinations (such as
combined B1/B2 courses), and in cases of theoretical type training courses below the figures given in
point 3.1(c) above, these shall be justified to the GCAA by the training needs analysis as described
above.

In addition, the course must describe and justify the following:

— The minimum attendance required to the trainee, in order to meet the objectives of the course.

— The maximum number of hours of training per day, taking into account pedagogical and human
factors principles.

If the minimum attendance required is not met, the certificate of recognition shall not be issued.
Additional training may be provided by the training organisation in order to meet the minimum
attendance time.

(e) Content:

As a minimum, the elements in the Syllabus below that are specific to the aircraft type shall be covered.
Additional elements introduced due to type variations, technological changes, etc. shall also be included.

The training syllabus shall be focused on mechanical and electrical aspects for B1 personnel, and
electrical and avionic aspects for B2.

3.2. Practical element

(a) Objective:

The objective of practical training is to gain the required competence in performing safe
maintenance, inspections and routine work according to the maintenance manual and
other relevant instructions and tasks as appropriate for the type of aircraft, for example
troubleshooting, repairs, adjustments, replacements, rigging and functional checks. It
includes the awareness of the use of all technical literature and documentation for the
aircraft, the use of specialist/special tooling and test equipment for performing removal
and replacement of components and modules unique to type, including any on-wing
maintenance activity.

(b) Content:

At least 50 % of the crossed items in the table below, which are relevant to the
particular aircraft type, shall be completed as part of the practical training.

Tasks crossed represent subjects that are important for practical training purposes to
ensure that the operation, function, installation and safety significance of key
maintenance tasks is adequately addressed; particularly where these cannot be fully
explained by theoretical training alone. Although the list details the minimum practical
training subjects, other items may be added where applicable to the particular aircraft
type.

Tasks to be completed shall be representative of the aircraft and systems both in

complexity and in the technical input required to complete that task. While relatively
simple tasks may be included, other more complex tasks shall also be incorporated and
undertaken as appropriate to the aircraft type.

4. Type training examination and assessment standard

4.1 Theoretical element examination standard

After the theoretical portion of the aircraft type training has been completed, a written
examination shall be performed, which shall comply with the following:

(a) Format of the examination is of the multiple-choice type. Each multiple-choice question
must have 3 alternative answers of which only one must be the correct answer. The total
time is based on the total number of questions and the time for answering is based upon
a nominal average of 90 seconds per question.

(b) The incorrect alternatives shall seem equally plausible to anyone ignorant of the subject.
All the alternatives shall be clearly related to the question and of similar vocabulary,
grammatical construction and length.

(c) In numerical questions, the incorrect answers shall correspond to procedural errors such
as the use of incorrect sense (+ versus -) or incorrect measurement units. They shall not
be mere random numbers.

(d) The level of examination for each chapter (*) shall be the one defined in point 2 "Aircraft
type training levels". However, the use of a limited number of questions at a lower level is
acceptable.

(e) The examination shall be of the closed book type. No reference material is permitted. An
exception will be made for the case of examining a B1 or B2 candidate’s ability to
interpret technical documents.

(f) The number of questions shall be at least 1 question per hour of instruction. The number
of questions for each chapter and level shall be proportionate to:

— the effective training hours spent teaching at that chapter and level,
— the learning objectives as given by the training needs analysis.

The GCAA will assess the number and the level of the questions when approving the
course.

AMC to Section 1 of Appendix III to CAR 66: Aircraft Type Training and Examination Standard

On-the-job-Experience

1. Aircraft type training may be subdivided in airframe and/or powerplant and/or

avionics/electrical systems type training courses:

 Airframe type training course means a type training course including all relevant aircraft
structure and electrical and mechanical systems excluding the powerplant.

 Powerplant type training course means a type training course on the bare engine, including
the build-up to a quick engine change unit.

 The interface of the engine/airframe systems should be addressed by either airframe or

powerplant type training course. In some cases, such as for general aviation, it may be more
appropriate to cover the interface during the airframe course due to the large variety of
aircraft that can have the same engine type installed.

 Avionics/electrical systems type training course means type training on avionics and
electrical systems covered by but not necessarily limited to ATA (Air Transport Association)
Chapters 22, 23, 24, 25, 27, 31, 33, 34, 42, 44, 45, 46, 73 and 77 or equivalent.

2. Practical training may be performed either following or integrated with the theoretical
elements. However, it should not be performed before theoretical training.

3. The content of the theoretical and practical training should:

 address the different parts of the aircraft which are representative of the structure, the
systems/components installed and the cabin; and

 include training on the use of technical manuals, maintenance procedures and the interface
with the operation of the aircraft.

Therefore, it should be based on the following elements:

 Type design including relevant type design variants, new technology and techniques;

 Feedback from in-service difficulties, occurrence reporting, etc.;

 Significant applicable airworthiness directives and service bulletins;

 Known human factor issues associated with the particular aircraft type;

 Use of common and specific documentation, (when applicable, such as MMEL, AMM, MPD,
TSM, SRM, WD, AFM, tool handbook), philosophy of the troubleshooting, etc.;

 Knowledge of the maintenance on-board reporting systems and ETOPS maintenance

conditions, when applicable;

Issue: 02 Page 119 of 198 November 2013

Rev: 00 November 2013
 CAR PART II Ch. 7 - CAR 66 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ENGINEER LICENSING

 Use of special tooling and test equipment and specific maintenance practices including
critical safety items and safety precautions;

 Significant and critical tasks/aspects from the MMEL, CDL, Fuel Tank Safety (FTS),
airworthiness limitation items (ALI) including Critical Design Configuration Control
Limitations (CDCCL), CMR and all ICA documentation such as MRB, MPD, SRM, AMM, etc.,
when applicable.

 Maintenance actions and procedures to be followed as a consequence of specific

certification requirements, such as, but not limited to, RVSM (Reduced Vertical
Separation Minimum) and NVIS (Night Vision Imaging Systems);

 Knowledge of relevant inspections and limitations as applicable to the effects of

environmental factors or operational procedures such as cold and hot climates, wind,
moisture, sand, de-icing/anti-icing, etc.

The type training does not necessarily need to include all possible customer options
corresponding to the type rating described in the Appendix I to AMC to CAR 66.

4. Limited avionic system training should be included in the category B1 type training as the B1
privileges include work on avionics systems requiring simple tests to prove their
serviceability.

5. Electrical systems should be included in both categories of B1 and B2 type training.

6. The theoretical and practical training should be complementary and may be:

 Integrated or split;

 Supported by the use of training aids, such as, trainers, virtual aircraft, aircraft
components, synthetic training devices (STD), computer-based training devices (CBT), etc.

AMC to Paragraph 3.1 (d) of Appendix III to CAR 66: Aircraft Type Training and Examination Standard, On-the
job Training

Training Needs Analysis for the theoretical element of the aircraft type training

1. The minimum duration for the theoretical element of the type rating training course, as
described in Appendix III to CAR 66, has been determined based on:

 generic categories of aircraft and minimum standard equipment fit;

 the estimated average duration of standard courses.

2. The purpose of the Training Needs Analysis (TNA) is to adapt and justify the duration of the
course for a specific aircraft type. This means that the TNA is the main driver for determining
the duration of the course, regardless of whether it is above or below the minimum duration
described in Appendix III to CAR 66.

In the particular case of type training courses approved on the basis of the requirements valid
before CAR 66 revision 01 was applicable (01 July 2013) and having a duration for the theoretical
element equal to or above the minimum duration contained in paragraph 3.1(c) of Appendix III
to CAR 66, it is acceptable that the TNA only covers the differences introduced by CAR 66
revision 01 in paragraph 3.1(e) “Content” and the criteria introduced in paragraph 3.1(d)
“Justification of course duration” related to the minimum attendance and the maximum number
of training hours per day. This TNA may result in a change in the duration of the theoretical
element.

3. The content and the duration deriving from the TNA may be supported by an analysis from the
Type Certificate holder.

4. In order to approve a reduction of such minimum duration, the evaluation done by the GCAA
will be performed on a case-by-case basis appropriate to the aircraft type. For example, while it
would be exceptional for a theoretical course for a large transport category aircraft such as an
A330 or B757 to be below the minimum duration shown, it would not necessarily be exceptional
in the case of a General Aviation (GA) business aircraft such as a Learjet 45 or similar. Typically,
the TNA for a GA aircraft course would demonstrate that a course of a shorter duration satisfies
the requirements.

5. When developing the TNA, the following should be considered:

(a) The TNA should include an analysis identifying all the areas and elements where there is a need
for training as well as the associated learning objectives, considering the design philosophy of
the aircraft type, the operational environment, the type of operations and the operational
experience. This analysis should be written in a manner which provides a reasonable
understanding of which areas and elements constitute the course to meet the learning
objectives.

(b) As a minimum, the Training Need Analysis (TNA) should take into account all the applicable
elements contained in paragraph 3.1 of CAR 66 Appendix III and associated AMCs.

Issue: 02 Page 121 of 198 November 2013

Rev: 00 November 2013
 CAR PART II Ch. 7 - CAR 66 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ENGINEER LICENSING
(c) The TNA should set up the course content considering the Appendix III objectives for each level
of training and the prescribed topics in the theoretical element table contained in paragraph 3.1
of CAR 66 Appendix III.

(d) For each Chapter described in the theoretical element table contained in paragraph 3.1 of
CAR 66 Appendix III, the corresponding training time should be recorded.

(e) Typical documents to be used to identify the areas and elements where there is a need for
training typically include, among others, the Aircraft Maintenance Manual, MRB report,
CMRs, airworthiness limitations, Troubleshooting Manual, Structural Repair Manual,
Illustrated Parts Catalogue, Airworthiness Directives and Service Bulletins.

(f) During the analysis of these documents:

 Consideration should be given to the following typical activities:

 Activation/reactivation;

 Removal/installation;

 Testing;

 Servicing;

 Inspection, check and repairs;

 Troubleshooting/diagnosis.

 For the purpose of identifying the specific elements constituting the training course, it is
acceptable to use a filtering method based on criteria such as:

 Frequency of the task;

 Human factor issues associated to the task;

 Difficulty of the task;

 Criticality and safety impact of the task;

 In-service experience;

 Novel or unusual design features (not covered by CAR 66 Appendix I);

 Similarities with other aircraft types;

 Special tests and tools/equipment.

 It is acceptable to follow an approach based on:

 Tasks or groups of tasks; or

 Systems or subsystems or components.

Issue: 02 Page 122 of 198 November 2013
Rev: 00 November 2013
 CAR PART II Ch. 7 - CAR 66 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ENGINEER LICENSING

(g) The TNA should:

 Identify the learning objectives for each task, group of tasks, system, subsystem or
component;

 Associate the identified tasks to be trained to the regulatory requirements (table in

paragraph 3.1 of Appendix III to CAR 66);

 Organise the training into modules in a logical sequence (adequate combination of

chapters as defined in Appendix III of CAR 66);

 Determine the sequence of learning (within a lesson and for the whole syllabus);

 Identify the scope of information and level of detail with regard to the minimum standard
to which the topics of the TNA should be taught according to the set-up objectives.

 Address the following:

 Description of each system/component including the structure (where applicable);

 System/component operation taking into account:

a) Complexity of the system (e.g. the need of further breakdown into subsystems, etc.);
b) Design specifics which may require more detailed presentation or may contribute to
maintenance errors;
c) Normal and emergency functioning;
d) Troubleshooting;
e) Interpretation of indications and malfunctions;
f) Use of maintenance publications;
g) Identification of special tools and equipment required for servicing and
maintaining the aircraft;
h) Maintenance Practices;
i) Routine inspections, functional or operational tests, rigging/adjustment, etc.

 Describe the following:

 The instructional methods and equipment, teaching methods and blending of the
teaching methods to ensure the effectiveness of the training;

 The maintenance training documentation/material to be delivered to the student;

 Facilitated discussions, questioning session, additional practice-oriented training, etc.;

 The homework, if developed;

 The training provider’s resources available to the learner.

(h) It is acceptable to differentiate between issues which have to be led by an instructor and
issues which may be delivered through interactive simulation training devices and/or covered
by web-based elements. Overall time of the course will be allocated accordingly.

Issue: 02 Page 123 of 198 November 2013

Rev: 00 November 2013
 CAR PART II Ch. 7 - CAR 66 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ENGINEER LICENSING

(i) The maximum number of training hours per day for the theoretical element of type training
should not be more than 6 hours. A training hour means 60 minutes of tuition excluding any
breaks, examination, revision, preparation and aircraft visit. In exceptional cases, the GCAA
may allow deviation from this standard when it is properly justified that the proposed number
of hours follows pedagogical and human factors principles. These principles are especially
important in those cases where:

 Theoretical and practical training are performed at the same time;

 Training and normal maintenance duty/apprenticeship are performed at the same time.

(j) The minimum participation time for the trainee to meet the objectives of the course should
not be less than 90 % of the tuition hours of the theoretical training course. Additional training
may be provided by the training organisation in order to meet the minimum participation
time. If the minimum participation defined for the course is not met, a certificate of
recognition should not be issued.

(k) The TNA is a living process and should be reviewed/updated based on operation
feedback, maintenance occurrences, Airworthiness Directives, major service bulletins
impacting maintenance activities or requiring new competencies for mechanics, alert service
bulletins, feedback from trainees or customer satisfaction, evolution of the maintenance
documentation such as MRBs, MPDs, MMs, etc. The frequency at which the TNA should be
reviewed/updated is left to the discretion of the organisation conducting the course.

NOTE: The examination is not part of the TNA. However, it should be prepared in accordance with
the learning objectives described in the TNA.

AMC to Paragraph 1(b), 3.2 and 4.2 of Appendix III to CAR 66: Aircraft Type Training and
Examination Standard, On-the-job-Experience

Practical element of the aircraft type training

1. The practical training may include instruction in a classroom or in simulators but part of the
practical training should be conducted in a real maintenance or manufacturer environment.

2. The tasks should be selected because of their frequency, complexity, variety, safety, criticality,
novelty, etc. The selected tasks should cover all the chapters described in the table contained
in paragraph 3.2 of Appendix III to CAR 66.

3. The duration of the practical training should ensure that the content of training required by
paragraph 3.2 of Appendix III to CAR 66 is completed.

Nevertheless, for aeroplanes with a MTOM equal or above 30 000 kg, the duration for the
practical element of a type rating training course should not be less than two weeks unless a
shorter duration meeting the objectives of the training and taking into account
pedagogical aspects (maximum duration per day) is justified to the GCAA.

4. The organisation providing the practical element of the type training should provide trainees
with a schedule or plan indicating the list of tasks to be performed under instruction or
supervision. A record of the tasks completed should be entered into a logbook which should
be designed such that each task or group of tasks may be countersigned by the designated
assessor. The logbook format and its use should be clearly defined.

5. In paragraph 4.2 of Appendix III to CAR 66, the term “designated assessors appropriately
qualified” means that the assessors should demonstrate training and experience on the
assessment process being undertaken and be authorised to do so by the organisation.

Further guidance about the assessment and the designated assessors is provided in
Appendix III to AMC to CAR 66.

6. The practical element (for powerplant and avionic systems) of the Type Rating Training may be
subcontracted by the approved CAR 147 organisation under its quality system according to the
provisions of 147.145(d)3 and the corresponding Guidance Material.

AMC to Paragraph 1(c), of Appendix III to CAR 66: Aircraft Type Training and Examination Standard, On-
the-job-Experience

Differences training

Approved difference training is not required for different variants within the same aircraft type rating (as
specified in Appendix I to AMC to CAR 66) for the purpose of type rating endorsement on the
Aircraft Maintenance Engineers Licence.

However, this does not necessarily mean that no training is required before a certifying staff
authorisation can be issued by the maintenance organisation (refer to AMC 66.20(b)3).

AMC to section 5 of Appendix III to CAR 66: Aircraft Type Training and Examination Standard, On-the-job-
Experience

This Section 5 “Type Examination Standard” does not apply to the examination performed as part of type
training. This Section only applies to those cases where type examination is performed as a substitute for type
training.

AMC to section 6 of Appendix III to CAR 66: Aircraft Type Training and Examination Standard, On-the-job-
Experience

On-the-job-Experience (OJE)
1. “A maintenance organisation appropriately approved for the maintenance of the particular
aircraft type” means a CAR 145 or M.A. Subpart F approved maintenance organisation holding
an A rating for such aircraft.

2. The OJE should include one-to-one supervision and should involve actual work task
performance on aircraft/components, covering line and/or base maintenance tasks.

3. The use of simulators for OJE should not be allowed.

4. The OJE should cover at least 50 % of the tasks contained in Appendix II to AMC to CAR 66.
Some tasks should be selected from each paragraph of the Appendix II list. Tasks should be
selected among those applicable to the type of aircraft and licence (sub) category applied for.
Other tasks than those in the Appendix II may be considered as a replacement when they are
relevant. Typically, in addition to the variety and the complexity, the OJE tasks should be
selected because of their frequency, safety, novelty, etc.

5. Up to 50 % of the required OJE may be undertaken before the aircraft theoretical type training
starts, provided this is carried out within 90 days before the theoretical training starts.

6. The organisation providing the On-the-job-Experience should provide trainees with a schedule
or plan indicating the list of tasks to be performed under supervision. A record of the tasks
completed should be entered into a logbook which should be designed such that each task or
group of tasks is countersigned by the corresponding supervisor. The logbook format and its
use should be clearly defined.

7. Regarding the day-to-day supervision of the OJE programme in the approved maintenance
organisation and the role of the supervisor(s), the following should be considered:
Issue: 02 Page 126 of 198 November 2013
Rev: 00 November 2013
 CAR PART II Ch. 7 - CAR 66 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ENGINEER LICENSING

 It is sufficient that the completion of individual OJE tasks is confirmed by the direct
supervisor(s), without being necessary the direct evaluation of the assessor.

 During the day-to-day OJE performance, the supervision aims at overseeing the
complete process, including task completion, use of manuals and procedures,
observance of safety measures, warnings and recommendations and adequate behaviour in
the maintenance environment.

 The supervisor(s) should personally observe the work being performed to ensure the safe
completeness and should be readily available for consultation, if needed during the OJE
performance.

 The supervisor(s) should countersign the tasks and release the maintenance tasks as the
trainee is still not qualified to do so.

 The supervisor(s) should therefore:

 have certifying staff or support staff privileges relevant to the OJE tasks;
 be competent for the selected tasks;
 be safety-orientated;
 be capable to coach (setting objectives, giving training, performing supervision,
evaluating, handling trainee’s reactions and cultural issues, managing objectively and
positively debriefing sessions, determining the need for extra training or reorientate the
training, reporting, etc.);
 be designated by the approved maintenance organisation to carry out the
supervision.

8. Regarding the assessor, the following should be considered:

 The function of the assessor, as described in Section 6 of Appendix III to CAR 66, is to conduct
the final assessment of the completed OJE. This assessment should include confirmation of
the completion of the required diversity and quantity of OJE and should be based on the
supervisor(s) reports and feedback.

 In Section 6 of Appendix III to CAR 66, the term “designated assessor appropriately qualified”
means that the assessor should demonstrate training and experience on the assessment
process being undertaken and should be authorised to do so by the organisation.

Further guidance about the assessment and the designated assessors is provided in
Appendix III to AMC to CAR 66.

9. The procedures for OJE should be included into the Exposition Manual of the approved
maintenance organisation.

APPENDIX I: to AMC to CAR 66

AIRCRAFT TYPE RATINGS FOR CAR 66 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE ENGINEERS LICENCE

The following aircraft type ratings should be used to ensure a common standard.

The inclusion of an aircraft type in the list does not indicate that the aircraft type has been already granted a
type certificate.

Notes:

 When a modification is introduced to an aircraft type rating or to an engine designation in the rating
which affects licences already issued, the ratings on the AMEL licences may be modified at the next
renewal or when the licence is reissued, unless there is an urgent reason to modify the licence.

EVALUATION OF THE COMPETENCE ASSESSMENT AND ASSESSORS

This Appendix applies to the competence assessment performed by the designated assessors (and
their qualifications).

1. What does “competence” mean and areas of focus for assessment

The assessment should aim at measuring the competence by evaluating three major factors
associated to the learning objectives:

 Knowledge;

 Skills;

 Attitude.

Generally, knowledge is evaluated by examination. The purpose of this document is not to describe
the examination process: this material mainly addresses the evaluation of “skills” and “attitude” after
training containing practical elements. Nevertheless, the trainee needs to demonstrate sufficient
knowledge to perform the required tasks.

“Attitude” is indivisible from the “skill” as this greatly contributes to the safe performance of the
tasks.

The evaluation of the competence should be based on the learning objectives of the training, in
particular:

 the (observable) desired performance. This covers what the trainee is expected to be able to
do and how the trainee is expected to behave at the end of the training;

 the (measurable) performance standard that must be attained to confirm the trainee’s level
of competence in the form of tolerances, constraints, limits, performance rates or qualitative
statements; and

 the conditions under which the trainee will demonstrate competence. Conditions consist of
the training methods, the environmental, situational and regulatory factors.

The assessment should focus on the competencies relevant to the aircraft type and its maintenance
including, but not limited to:

 Environmental awareness (act safely, apply safety precautions and prevent dangerous
situations);

 Systems integration (demonstrate understanding of aircraft systems interaction –

identify, describe, explain, plan, execute);

 Knowledge and understanding of areas requiring special emphasis or novelty (areas peculiar
to the aircraft type, domains not covered by CAR 66 Appendix I, practical training elements
that cannot be imparted through simulation devices, etc.);

July 2013 – Rev 01

CAR 66 General Civil Aviation Authority United Arab Emirates
  Using reports and indications (the ability to read and interpret);

 Aircraft documentation finding and handling (identify the appropriate aircraft

documentation, navigate, execute and obey the prescribed maintenance procedures);

 Perform maintenance actions (demonstrate safe handling of aircraft, engines,

components and tools);

 Aircraft final/close-up and report (apply close up, initiate appropriate actions/follow-up/
records of testing, establish and sign maintenance records/logbooks).

2. How to assess
As far as feasible, the objectives of the assessment should be associated with the learning objectives
and the passing level; it means that observable criteria should be set to measure the performance and
should remain as objective as possible.

The general characteristics of effective assessment are: objective, flexible, acceptable,

comprehensive, constructive, organised and thoughtful. At the conclusion, the trainee should have no
doubt about what he/she did well, what he/she did poorly and how he/she can improve.

The following is a non-exhaustive list of questions that may be posed to assist the assessment:

 What are the success factors for the job?

 What are typical characteristics of a correct behaviour for the task?

 What criteria should be observed?

 What level of expertise is expected?

 Is there any standard available?

 What is the pass mark? For example:

 “Go-no go” situation;

 How to allocate points? Minimum amount to succeed;

 “Must know or execute” versus “Good to know or execute” versus “Don’t expect the
candidate to be an expert”.

 Minimum or maximum time to achieve? Use time effectively and efficiently.

July 2013 – Rev 01

CAR 66 General Civil Aviation Authority United Arab Emirates
  What if the trainee fails? How many times is the trainee allowed to fail?

 When and how should the trainee be prepared for the assessment?

 What proportion of judgment by the instructor out of collaboration with the trainee is needed
during the evaluation stage?

The assessment may be:

 diagnostic (prior to a course), formative (reorientate the course on areas where there is a
need to reinforce) or summative (partial or final evaluation);

 performed task-by-task, as a group of tasks or as a final assessment.

One method might be an initial assessment to be performed by the trainee himself/herself, then
discussing areas where the perceptions of the trainee’s performance by the assessors differ in order
to:
 develop the self-assessment habits;

 make the assessment more acceptable and understandable to both parties.

A “box-ticking” exercise would be pointless. Experience has shown that assessment sheets have
largely evolved over time into assessment of groups of “skills” because in practice such things
eventually detracted from the training and assessment that it was intended to serve: evaluate at a
point of time, encourage and orientate the training needs, improve safety and ultimately qualify
people for their duties.
In addition, many other aspects should be appropriately considered during the assessment process
such as stress and environmental conditions, difficulty of the test, history of evaluation (such as
tangible progresses or sudden and unexpected poor performance made by the trainee), amount
of time necessary to build competence, etc.
All these reasons place more emphasis on the assessor and highlight the function of the organisation’s
approval.

Section 4 – Appendices to CAR 66.70

APPENDIX 1: to CAR66.70 - CONVERSION REPORT

1. Conversion of Existing GCAA Licences

a. This report provides guidelines on the procedure for conversion of existing UAE GCAA licences (issued in
accordance with Chapter 7, CAR Part II) into a CAR66–Aircraft Maintenance Engineer Licence (CAR66–
AMEL).

b. All existing licence will be converted into either full or restricted CAR66–AMEL depending upon privileges
held.

c. To ensure that existing licence holders retain their entitlement to certification privileges that they hold by
virtue of their existing licences/authorisations, applicants are requested to provide full details of
certification privileges held by them on the application form along with acceptable documentary
evidences.

d. Categories/ratings held on the existing licences as well as all properly issued maintenance authorisations
which do not exceed the basic scope of applicants’ UAE licences will be considered and will be reflected
on the converted CAR66– AMEL.

e. Where all combined qualifications/authorisations do not meet requirements of a full CAR66–AMEL,

limitations as given in the following paragraph will apply. In case of maintenance authorisations that
exceed the scope of basic UAE licence and the applicant cannot provide verifiable evidence that he had
ever held or holds similar privileges on his other ICAO signatory state licences, appropriate limitations will
be applied on his/her converted CAR 66 licence.

f. With these limitations on the converted licence, the holder may continue to exercise the privileges of the
maintenance authorisations as long as he/she continues to work with the organisation that issued the
authorisation. However, the holder will lose the right to exercise the privileges upon leaving the
organisation.

g. Cut off date for conversion of the existing licences is 01st July 2015. All existing licence holders will
continue to exercise the privileges of old licences until this cutoff date after which they will cease to hold
the privileges unless converted onto a CAR66-AMEL in accordance with CAR 66. Applications received
after this date for conversion of licences issued in accordance with the previous Chapter 7, CAR Part II
into a CAR 66 licence will not be processed.

h. There is no time limit for removal of limitations on converted licences. Once a licence is converted into a
CAR66-AMEL and the ratings, limitations and privileges on the new licences are accepted by the holder,
previous licence can no longer be used for certifying purposes. All converted licences will be considered
accepted by their holders if no written objection is received by GCAA.

i. Status of certification authorisations issued by CAR 145 organisations on the basis of

existing UAE licences that exceeded the basic scope of the licence will become frozen as on
1st July 2011. However, privileges granted by CAR145 organisations prior to this date can be
exercised. Further authorisations that exceed the basic scope of the licence cannot be
granted on the basis of unconverted licences.

July 2013 – Rev 01

2. Conversion of a basic Aircraft Maintenance Engineering Licence (LWTR)

a. Basic ratings held on the existing UAE licences will be considered and will be reflected on the
converted CAR66–AMEL. Where all combined ratings/authorisations do not meet
requirements of a full relevant CAR66–AMEL category, applicable limitations as appropriate
will be applied.

b. All applications for basic UAE licences that are currently under process will be dealt in
accordance with CAR66. If an applicant has partially completed requirements for any category
under the previous system, he/she will be allowed to complete the process in accordance with
this conversion report and will be issued a CAR66-AMEL with applicable limitations as defined
in this report, unless modules/part modules required for removal of limitation are completed
before issue of licence in the appropriate category.

July 2013 – Rev 01

CAR 66 General Civil Aviation Authority United Arab Emirates
 c. If the licence holder qualifies for a B1 sub-category AMEL, the corresponding A sub-category
AMEL will also be granted unless the licence carries limitation 10 or 11.

d. Part/full conversion examinations as appropriate to remove limitations may be taken

after the conversion process of the licence is complete. Additional experience may
also be needed to be provided before qualifying for the full category or sub-category
of a CAR66-AMEL.

e. A table covering the most common existing GCAA licences (Issued under Chapter 7, CAR Part
II) to CAR-66 licence conversion scenarios can be found in Para 10.

3. Conversion of GCAA Type Endorsements to a CAR-66 Licence.

a. Aircraft types endorsed on the current copy of an applicant’s existing GCAA licence will be
transferred directly to a CAR-66 licence at the time of conversion. Only aircraft types held by
the candidate on GCAA licence will be endorsed.

b. A & C (Mechanical) & Avionics X/R Type Ratings: Type ratings for individual aeroplanes or
helicopters will be transferred as type ratings in Category B1 and B2 with any appropriate
limitations.

c. Group ratings held on existing GCAA licence or individual type ratings qualifying for award of
group rating according to CAR 66 provisions, at the time of conversion will be transferred to
the replacement licence in the form of a full group ratings or manufacturer group ratings iaw
AMC to CAR 66 appendix 1.

d. Category C type rated licences will be endorsed on the replacement/converted CAR66-AMEL

if the existing GCAA type rated licences have either full set mechanical (Airframe and engine
categories) or full set Avionics (X and R categories) type ratings endorsed on them for more
than three years and the applicant can provide evidence that he/she is holding a valid
company authorisation for Scheduled Maintenance Inspection Certificate of Release to
Service (SMI CRS) for the types of aircraft. To simplify these requirements, an applicant who
desires to have category C type ratings transferred on to replacement licence has to provide
evidence in support of the following:

e. Type ratings endorsements on GCAA licence and maintenance authorisations for at least
three years in Either A + C Categories Or X + R categories And Company authorisation for
Scheduled Maintenance Inspection Certificate of Release to Service (SMI CRS)

4. Application For a GCAA CAR66 Licence On The Basis Of a Foreign Licence

a. GCAA may consider grant of exemptions on examination and/or experience requirements

for a UAE CAR 66 AMEL on the basis of another ICAO contracting state’s aircraft
maintenance engineer licence of the applicant if he/she meets the eligibility criteria.

July 2013 – Rev 01

CAR 66 General Civil Aviation Authority United Arab Emirates
 b. The reviewing licensing inspector will thoroughly evaluate the application and workout
equivalence of the foreign licence with appropriate category of CAR66–AMEL. If such an
application for grant of licence is approved, the candidate will be required to successfully
qualify GCAA Air Legislation modular examination comprising of multiple choice and essay
examination and other full/part modular examinations considered necessary by GCAA to
convert the foreign licence to an unrestricted GCAA CAR66–AMEL.

c. Requests for a licence on the basis of a foreign licence with unreasonably large number of
limitations or with limitations that severely restricts the corresponding CAR 66 privileges will
not be accepted.

d. It is the responsibility of the applicant to provide all supporting evidence in support of the
application that the original licence was issued against equivalent/comparable standards
and requirements. The GCAA would need to conduct a detailed assessment of the standards
and requirements against which the original licence was issued, which will require co-
operation of the regulatory authority concerned.

e. In cases where GCAA finds it difficult to assess the standards of the issuing authority, the
application will be rejected and the applicant will be requested to raise a fresh application
IAW CAR 66. Because of the detailed evaluation and assessment of applications involving
foreign licences,

f. Upon successful completion of the applicable examinations, the candidate will be required
to apply for issue of a CAR 66 licence. Generally, ratings held by the individual on his foreign
licence will be endorsed on the licence. For licences that are not equivalent to CAR 66
licences, limitation similar to those given in the common conversion scenarios in Para 10 will
be applied.

g. For a licence conversion from a foreign licence, the above exam retake restriction does not
apply for examination conducted in the GCAA, a failed modular examination may be retaken
at any time, however only one re-sit attempt will be allowed, after this the applicant must
attend the modular course and examination at a CAR 147 approved training organisation.

h. pre-requisites and eligibility criteria for the conversion of a foreign licence:

The following prerequisites for issuing the licence shall be met;

a. Candidates must hold a valid type rated Aircraft Maintenance Engineer Licence from an
ICAO contracting state or, in case of ICAO contracting states that do not issue type rated
Aircraft Maintenance Engineer Licences, a valid basic Aircraft Maintenance Engineer
Licence comparable and equivalent to the appropriate CAR 66 AMEL B1 or B2 category.

b. Had the privileges to issue Certificate of Release to Service (CRS) under a

maintenance/certification authorisation granted by his previous organisation.

c. The foreign licence shall be verified by the issuing authority, and if applicable, the
maintenance/certification authorisation shall also be verified by the regulatory authority
of the company that issued the maintenance authorisation to verify/attest that the
authorisation issued by the company complies with ICAO Aircraft Maintenance Personal
Licencing standards.
July 2013 – Rev 01
CAR 66 General Civil Aviation Authority United Arab Emirates
 (Note: the above mentioned maintenance/certification authorisation verification is
needed from candidates who hold basic licences which are issued from ICAO contracting
states that do not issue type rated Aircraft Maintenance Engineer Licences)

d. Furnish training course certificates related to the certification qualification.

e. Must successfully complete the GCAA Air Legislation examination (module 10).

i. Among other applicable responsibilities, the employers have the following responsibilities:

(a) Ensure that all documents submitted to GCAA for the purpose of a licence conversion
are genuine, up to date, valid and free from any kind of falsification.

(b) Ensure the applicant is fully knowledgeable in all aspects of GCAA rules and regulations
related to aircraft airworthiness and maintenance.

(c) Ensure that original licence and ratings on the basis of which GCAA had granted the
conversion remains valid during the conversion period.

(d) Ensure that the applicant is legally allowed to work in the UAE or country of
deployment.

(e) Ensure that in the preceding two years period, the applicant has had either six months
of maintenance experience in accordance with the privileges granted by the original
licence or met the provision for the issue of the appropriate privileges.

(f) Ensure that the applicant is duly assessed and authorised as competent to exercise the
privileges of the converted licence in accordance with the companies approved
procedures.

(g) Ensure that the scope and validity of the validation/authorisation are adhered to.

5. Temporary Validation of a Foreign Licence

(a) To permit a foreign licence holder to exercise the privileges of their licence in the U.A.E.
a foreign licence can be validated by issuance of a letter of validation, with initial validity
of ninety (90) days and may be further extended for another 90 days under extenuating
circumstances.

(b) Only those foreign aircraft maintenance licences that meet the intent of ICAO Annex 1
and whose scope of privileges are considered commensurate with B1 or B2 licences
under CAR 66, will be considered for further evaluation for grant of temporary
validation. Validation for grant of privileges of Category A licence under CAR 66 will not
be considered. Licences issued by ICAO signatory states that have not furnished any
response to ICAO for compliance with Annex 1 or who have filed major differences on
the requirements of Annex 1 will also not be considered for grant of temporary
validation. This also applies to states that have major findings against them in the latest
ICAO audit of their national civil aviation authorities.

July 2013 – Rev 01

CAR 66 General Civil Aviation Authority United Arab Emirates
 (c) The pre-requisites and eligibility criteria for the issue of a temporary validation are
detailed in paragraph 4 (Application For a GCAA CAR66 Licence On The Basis Of a
Foreign Licence) above.

6. List of ICAO Licences Eligible for Conversion

The following list identifies which licences are acceptable for conversion, the list is split into
two categories.

(a) Category 1 licences are acceptable for conversion following an air legislation or module
10 pass,

(b) Category 2 licences will be accepted following an air legislation or module 10 and a
module 9 examination pass.

(c) Basic airframe/powerplant foreign licences issued by an ICAO contracting states (listed
overleaf in the table) without type rating and certification privileges may be eligible for
a conversion to a GCAA category A licence following completion of a GCAA Air
Legislation exam (module 10) and Human Factor exam (module 9) as applicable. Further
extension of GCAA category A licence issued under the provision of this paragraph shall
comply with GCAA CAR 66 knowledge and experience requirements.

(d) Candidates applying for foreign licence conversion may be required to sit additional CAR
66 full/part modular examination that are considered necessary by the GCAA to convert
the foreign licence to an un-restricted GCAA CAR 66 AMEL.

5. Issue of a Category A Licence to a Previously Unlicensed Maintenance Staff of a CAR-145
Approved Organisation.
A. Only Maintenance authorisations that have been properly issued and held for at least two
(02) years by 1st July 2011 will be considered for grant of an equivalent category ‘A’ licence.
Applicants applying for a Category ‘A’ licence on the basis of maintenance authorisations
issued by a CAR-145 approved organisation must provide evidence of the authorisation and
copies of relevant training and experience certificates on the basis of which the
authorisation was granted.
B. Appropriate limitations, most common of which are listed below, will apply.

Company Authorisation issued prior to 1st Applicable

CAR-66 Limitation means
July 2009
Limitation(s)

Unrestricted Nil Nil

Daily Check/Inspections 21 Excluding all tasks with the exception
of minor scheduled line maintenance
up to and including Daily Inspections
Cabin Maintenance 22 Excluding all tasks with the exception
of Cabin Maintenance tasks
Replacement of IFE system 24 Excluding all systems with the
exception of LRUs within In-flight
Entertainment (IFE) Systems

C. Holders of the above authorisations will only be eligible to hold a Category ‘A’ licence with
the appropriate limitations. To remove the limitations, the holder needs to fulfil the
complete requirements of the applicable category ‘A’ licence. Similarly, for extension of
these licences to include other categories, holders will be required to complete full
examination and experience requirements of the desired CAR 66 AMEL category.

6. Removing Limitations From a Basic Licence

Limitations on a converted/ replacement B1/B2 CAR 66-AMEL licence may be removed by

undertaking conversion examinations in appropriate Modules/part modules. There is no cut off date
for removal of limitations on converted licences. Existing licence holders are advised to apply for
conversion of their licences into CAR 66 AMELs prior to applying for full/part modular examinations
for removal of anticipated limitations on the converted licences. Once holders receive their
converted licence, they can apply to GCAA for removal of limitations accordingly.

Also, licence holders are advised to apply for removal of all limitations in a single application.
Applications for removal of partial limitations will be rejected and the applicants will be advised to
apply once ready for undertaking all applicable examinations for removing all limitations on the
licence. Additionally, the applicants will be required to furnish evidence of experience related to
additional examinations passed. After evaluation of the application
for removal of the limitations, the applicant may be advised to appear in the additional examinations
conducted either by GCAA or its designated organisation.

Refer to Para 10 for applicable Modules/part module examinations required for removal of
limitations.

July 2013 – Rev 01

CAR 66 General Civil Aviation Authority United Arab Emirates
Experience including detailed evidence of competence in the relevant basic skills is required in the
areas appropriate to the basic category/sub-category, which are not covered by previous
qualifications/privileges. However, the GCAA may accept shorter period of experience, provided the
applicant can demonstrate sufficient verified experience/tasks in the relevant basic skills to the basic
category/sub-category.

7. Removing Limitations From a Type Rating

Where the limitation applies only to the type rating, it can be removed by completing either an
approved conversion course covering the differences or a full B1 or B2 type course as appropriate.
This training must be conducted by an approved CAR-147 maintenance training organisation. The
additional experience submitted should include all areas not covered due to the limitation.

8. Basic Knowledge/Examination Requirements

The CAR-66 syllabus normally requires different levels of knowledge for different licence categories
(A, B1 and B2) within a module; therefore, appropriate conversion examinations applicable to certain
modules for licence holders wishing to include another category, have to be completed. The most
common cases of category conversion are given in Para 9.
Applicants are advised to apply for extension to include another category after removing maximum
possible limitations from their existing categories as this would enable the GCAA to work out the
additional differences modular requirements for the applicant expeditiously and accurately.
Applications to include further categories to an existing licence should be made in the same way as
for initial application to GCAA Licensing section. GCAA will assess the application and advise the
applicant of the modules/part modules, date and venue of the examination.
The GCAA, or its approved designated CAR 147 organisation on its behalf, will conduct module/part
module examinations for extension of an existing CAR-66 licence to have further categories.

9. Common Scenarios for the Extension To a Licence

Extension of a CAR66 – B2 licence to include Mechanical Category A

Note: Module 7 is common to all Category ‘A’ sub-categories. Modules 11 to 17 must be taken as shown
according to the sub-category required.

The following table normally applies to full Category B1 AMEL holders. If the licence holder has
only one limitation that excludes Avionics LRUs only, full B2 level Module 5 examination will be
required instead of the Module 5 conversion examination as shown below. Successful
qualification of Module5 in this case will qualify the holder for removal of the Avionics LRU
limitation from B1 category.

If B1 licence holder previously held X Electrical Basic GCAA licence, Module 4 will not be required
and the applicant must apply for exemption on application for B2 and a copy of the old licence
should be attached with the application.
