IRImplementing rule

2. Type Training Examination and Assessment

The type training certificate template shall be used for recognition of completion of either the examination of the theoretical element (training included) or the assessment of the practical element (training included), or both elements of the type rating training course (Appendix III to Annex III (Part-66), points 1(a) and (b)). The certificate shall indicate the airframe/engine combination for which the training was imparted. The appropriate references shall be deleted as applicable and the course type box shall detail whether only the theoretical elements or the practical elements were covered or whether theoretical and practical elements were covered. The training certificate shall clearly identify if the course is a complete course or a partial course (such as an airframe or powerplant or avionic/electrical course) or a difference course based upon the applicant previous experience, for instance A340 (CFM) course for A320 technicians. If the course is not a complete one, the certificate shall identify whether the interface areas have been covered or not. The same form shall be used for the recognition of completion of the aircraft type evaluation (point 66.A.45(d) of Annex III (Part-66) and point 5 of Appendix III to that Annex). EASA Form 149a shall be used for training and examinations conducted by a training organisation approved in accordance with Annex IV (Part-147). EASA Form 149b shall be used for type training examinations and type evaluations conducted by the competent authority or as recognition of completion of aircraft type training approved through the direct approval procedure of point 66.B.130 of Annex III (Part-66).
