This Advisory Circular (AC) provides an AMC for the syllabus content in respect of written examinations for Mechanical Group Ratings.
This AC also provides GM for recommended study material in respect of the examination syllabi in this AC.
This AC relates specifically to Civil Aviation Rule Part 66 Subpart C — Aircraft Maintenance Engineer Licence.
