What is AMEL (Aircraft Maintenance Engineer License) ?

     In aviation, AMEL stands for Aircraft Maintenance Engineer License, and its types typically align with the categories of aircraft and their systems. 

    AMEL Categories

  • Category A (Mechanic)Basic maintenance tasks on an aircraft.
    • A1: Turbine-powered airplanes.
    • A2: Piston-powered airplanes.
    • A3: Turbine-powered helicopters.
    • A4: Piston-powered helicopters.

  • Category B (Technician/Engineer)Licensed to perform and certify complex tasks.
    • B1: Mechanical (structures, engines, systems).
      • B1.1: Turbine airplanes.
      • B1.2: Piston airplanes.
      • B1.3: Turbine helicopters.
      • B1.4: Piston helicopters.

    • B2: Avionics (electrical and electronic systems).
  • Category C (Certifying Staff)Supervisory-level certification for aircraft maintenance tasks on large aircraft.

Requirements for AMEL

  1. Educational Background:

    • Typically requires a high school diploma or equivalent, with a strong foundation in mathematics, physics, and English.
  2. Approved Training Program:

    • Completion of an EASA Part-147 approved course or equivalent recognized training program.
  3. Practical Experience:

    • Without Training Course:  At least 5 years of practical experience in helicopter maintenance.
    • With Training Course:    A minimum of 2 years of practical experience in the same field.
  4. Knowledge Examinations:

    • Passing the required module exams based on the EASA syllabus.
  5. Skill Assessment:

    • Demonstrating competency in practical tasks under the supervision of a licensed certifying engineer.
  6. Medical Fitness:

    • Meeting medical fitness standards for the aviation industry.

Steps to Obtain AMEL

  1. Enroll in a Training Program:

    • Join an approved training institution that offers the syllabus.
  2. Pass the Module Exams:

    • Successfully complete the written examinations for all required modules.
  3. Gain Practical Experience:

    • Work on Aircraft to acquire the necessary experience. This must be documented inn logbook and verified by a licensed engineer.
      • Without Training Course:  At least 5 years of practical experience in helicopter maintenance.
      • With Training Course:    A minimum of 2 years of practical experience in the same field.
  4. Apply for the License:

    • Submit your application to the aviation authority with all necessary documentation, including exam results and practical experience.


Aircraft Basic Definitions

 Aircraft Basic Definitions  

  • Aircraft:  A machine that can fly, such as an airplane or helicopter.
  • Aerodynamics: The study of how air moves around objects, especially aircraft.
  • Aileron: A hinged surface on the wing that controls roll movement.
  • Altitude: The height of an aircraft above the ground or sea level.
  • Airfoil: A shape designed to produce lift when air flows over it.
  • Attitude: The orientation of an aircraft in relation to the horizon.
  • Chord Line: A straight line connecting the leading and trailing edges of a wing.
  • Drag: The force that resists the motion of an aircraft through the air.
  • Elevator: A control surface on the tail that adjusts the aircraft's pitch.
  • Flaps:  Movable surfaces on the wing that increase lift or drag.
  • Fuselage: The main body of an aircraft, where passengers and cargo are carried.
  • Landing Gear: The wheels or skids that allow an aircraft to land and take off.
  • Lift: The force that keeps an aircraft in the air, created by airflow over the wings.
  • Propeller: A rotating blade that generates thrust to move an aircraft forward.
  • Rudder: A control surface on the tail that controls yaw movement.
  • Stall: A condition where the wing stops generating enough lift due to a high angle of attack.
  • Thrust: The forward force produced by an engine or propeller.
  • Torque: A twisting force, often produced by an engine, that affects aircraft stability.
  • Turbulence: Irregular air movement that causes an aircraft to shake or move unpredictably.
  • Yaw: The side-to-side movement of an aircraft's nose, controlled by the rudder.
