About this book
Volume 1 of the theory textbook for the QCTO Occupational Certificate: Avionics Mechanic (NQF Level 5, SAQA ID 105024) — mathematics, physics, and the electrical, electronic and digital fundamentals of avionics. Chapters 1 to 5 carry 68 of the knowledge component's 141 credits: mathematics and physics for aircraft maintenance, electrical fundamentals, electronic fundamentals (including printed circuit boards and servomechanisms), and digital technology and electronic instrument systems. Taught in South African civil aviation context — the Civil Aviation Act 13 of 2009 and Civil Aviation Regulations Parts 43, 66 and 145 — and it does not replace approved type training or an operator's approved maintenance data. Chapters are numbered continuously 1 to 15 across the three volumes.
