You can attend the module examination at a Part-147 approved training organization like Suntech.
We have exam locations worldwide, so you can attend your modules as close to your preferred location as possible.
Actually, anyone can attend module examinations. Previous technical knowledge is recommended but not necessary.
Module examinations are clean desk examinations which means nothing may be used as help during examinations.
There are 13 modules for Cat. B1.1 license needed. It is 13 Multiple choice exams (one per each module) and 1 essay exam (for Module M7).
Before any essay exam, SUNTECH on locations performs an on-site review, where examiner explains in details, what elements are necessary to write a successful essay.
We can also perform essay writing course – all possible scenarios are explained there and many test writings are done in this course.
When you apply for the M7 exams you also get the access to M7 essay video explanation, explaining the major rules for the essay writing.
You may attend only one or few modules or the whole package at any available Part-147 training organization or CAA. All certificates issued by Part-147 approved training organizations or CAAs are mutually recognised and equally accepted.
You have to attend differential modules – those that are for B2 license category examined on a higher level or are special for B2: M4, M5, M13, M14.
Please note that some CAAs require also M7(MC) and M7(essay) to be done once again.
You have to attend differential modules – those that are for B1.1 license category examined on higher level or are special for B1.1: M6, M7, M11, M15, M17.
You may attend module examinations without any course being attended before. We suggest you call Part-147 training organization – you’ve chosen for examination – and ask them for study material. They should provide it.
You may have your second attempt at earliest 1 month from the first one – but retraining must be provided by Part-147 training organization. Without retraining, your second attempt may not be performed sooner than 3 months after the first one.
Part-147/66 regulations allow you to take the M7 (MC) and M7 (essay) exams in different training organizations. In practice, some CAAs accept this and some do not. Therefore, it is recommended to ask the CAA you will apply to in advance whether they accept this option.
EASA does not accept conversions from other license types (FAA, TCCA, GCAA, ECAA, etc.). Therefore, even if you hold an FAA license, you will need to pass all EASA exams (for B1 or B2 categories) and, together with your 5-year logbook, apply for an EASA license.
This decision is mostly under the CAA – where you apply for your license – discretion.
Each individual’s entry conditions are by CAA in evaluated case-by-case. CAA may or may not accept individual’s working experiences gained outside Part-145 approved maintenance organization.
Current status is that most CAAs accept 4 years of gained experience in any maintenance organization (outside or inside Europe), but 1 year of experience must be gained in EASA approved Part-145 Maintenance organization, located either inside or outside Europe.
This regulation came into force on Jun. 12th, 2024.
As long as your exams were taken and passed in EASA-approved Part-147 training organizations (located within or outside the EU), these certificates of recognition are mutually accepted by any CAA within the European Union.
EASA training and examination program(s) at Suntech aviation for obtaining an EASA aircraft maintenance licence are self-standing, which means you don’t need prior technical education to become an aircraft licensed engineer. Candidates with both technical and non-technical backgrounds can attend EASA program(s) and become licensed aircraft engineers.
SUNTECH is an EASA-approved training organization, and no training organization can perform OJT. On-the-Job Training (OJT) for the first aircraft type to be endorsed in your basic (B1 or B2) licence can be performed only in a maintenance organization (EASA Part-145 approved) that also has an approved OJT program. Therefore, a maintenance organization cannot organize OJT unless it is specifically approved to do so.
Maintenance experience—which must be recorded in the maintenance logbook—can be gained only in maintenance organizations. These maintenance organizations may be EASA-approved or approved by other competent authorities (UK, India, USA, etc.). SUNTECH is a training organization, not a maintenance organization.
On request, SUNTECH can supports you with the EASA application process. We do it in all phases—from the initial evaluation of your licence documentation until the day your licence is issued. The process is not exactly the same for every applicant, because applicants may have different entry documents and backgrounds.
To obtain the EASA aircraft maintenance licence, you must fulfill the following:
• Attend and pass all licence category (B1 or B2) exams in any EASA Part-147 approved training organization. You can choose different EASA programs to complete all exams.
• Collect the required maintenance experience period (from 2 to 5 years—the duration depends on the program you choose).
• Complete the application form (EASA Form 19).
EASA does not accept credits from universities. However, the CAA you intend to apply to may grant credit for some modules (M1, M2, M3, M8). This depends on the CAA. Some CAAs do not consider this option, while others do. In any case, if the CAA grants any module credit, you must provide a credit report for that module showing that the syllabus of the school you are claiming credit for is at the same level as the syllabus in EASA Part-66 Appendix I.
You can complete your type course even before your basic licence is issued. You can endorse this type in your EASA licence if the first day of the theoretical part of the course was not more than three years ago, counted from the day of the endorsement application.
Afterwards, you will be kindly asked for more details in order to prepare the most suitable offer for you.
You will be equipped with prices, dates and other details within 24 hours.
