Aircraft Maintenance Engineering (AME) B1.1 Stream is a specialized course for people who want to work on turbine engine (jet engine) aircraft like the big commercial airliners you see at airports.
In this stream, students learn how to inspect maintain, repair, and troubleshoot mechanical systems of aircraft focusing on airframes engines fuel hydraulic, pneumatic and environmental control systems of turbine-engine planes.
The training includes both theory and hands-on practical work: you will study aerodynamics, structures, gas-turbine engines maintenance practices aviation laws, and more, and also work on real engines and components to build real-world skills.
The full AME B1.1 program is about 2400 hours of instruction and training.
Typically it takes 2 to 3 years to complete combining both classroom learning and practical experience.
The course is approved by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), Government of India. After successfully completing the program and meeting required experience, you get a licensed AME certification under Category B1.1.
This licence allows you to legally inspect and certify turbine engine aircraft ensuring they are safe and airworthy before flights.
With AME B1.1 licence you can work as an Aircraft Maintenance Engineer (AME) Line or Base Maintenance Engineer Powerplant Technician Quality Inspector Maintenance Planner etc.
You could join domestic or international airlines aircraft manufacturers MRO (Maintenance Repair Overhaul) organisations defense aviation or private charter companies.
Because jet-engine aircraft form the backbone of modern aviation B1.1-trained engineers are always in demand making it a globally recognized stable and respected career path.
