NZQF NQ Ref 0171 Version 6 Page 2 of 8 National Certificate in Aircraft Servicing Level 3 Credits 73 Purpose This qualification recognises skills in servicing aircraft on a flight line or ramp. Holders of the certificate are able to carry out tasks such as replenishments, refuelling, ground handling, and pre- and post-flight checks on an aircraft flight line or ramp. Options are available within the qualification for servicing either helicopters or fixed wing aircraft. This qualification is designed as a stand-alone qualification. While this qualification does not specifically lead to other qualifications, it incorporates compulsory core unit standards common to the award of the National Certificate in Aeronautical Engineering (Specialist Support) with optional strands in Aeronautical Composites, Aeronautical Electroplating, Aeronautical Machining, Aeronautical Non Destructive Testing, Aircraft Furnishings and Equipment, Aircraft Mechanical, Aircraft Painting, Aircraft Powerplant, Aircraft Structures, Armament, Avionics, and Rotorcraft [Ref: 0191], the National Certificate in Aeronautical Engineering with strands in Aeronautical Non Destructive Testing, Armament, Avionic Electrical Repair, Avionic Instrument Repair, Avionic Maintenance, Avionic Radio Repair, Aircraft Mechanical, Aircraft Powerplant, Rotorcraft, and Aircraft Structures [Ref: 0192], and the National Certificate in Aeronautical Engineering (Related Technology) [Ref: 0381]. This qualification can lead on from the National Certificate in Aviation (Introductory) (Level 2) [Ref: 1105], and it may be of interest to employees who are intending to work towards national certificates or national diplomas in the subfields of Aeronautical Engineering, depending on the direction of their intended career pathway.
