Course Detail: EUR-1106 - A&P Maintenance Familiarization (General Aviation) in association with Ramstein Air Base
Overview
In collaboration with Ramstein Air Base (Germany), Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University is proud to offer the first A&P Maintenance Familiarization (GA category) course to military members based in Europe. The 5-day intensive hands-on course will be offered at the FAA-certified training facility at the Ramstein Air Base. Students will broaden their maintainer skills while working on a Cessna 172 Skyhawk. An experienced, A&P-licensed Embry-Riddle instructor will lead students through a rigorous and intensive week reviewing general aviation aircraft knowledge and theory as it applies to aviation mechanic general standards, aviation mechanic airframe standards, and aviation mechanic powerplant standards. Additionally, students will have the opportunity to perform tasks on the aircraft and powerplant directly.
