Associate in Applied Science Professional Technical Program
     The Aviation Maintenance Technology program at BBCC is designed to prepare students for FAA airframe and powerplant maintenance certification and for employment in aviation maintenance careers.  Courses offer quality training to serious and motivated students through a structured competency-based curriculum provided by industry experienced instructors.  Instruction includes the basics of maintenance, servicing, inspection, repair, troubleshooting, and overhaul of aircraft airframes, powerplants, and their related systems and components associated with general and commercial aviation in the proper environment in which students may become professional aviation maintenance technicians.
     International students must take degree requirement academic courses during their first quairter of enrollment at BBCC.  The international student advisor will place new students in the appropriate classes.
     Hours of instruction required by FAA regulation, FAR part 147, Par. 147.21 (b), will be at least:
 

1. Airframe-1150 hours (400 general plus 750 airframe)
2. Powerplant- 1150 hours (400 general plus 750 powerplant)
3. Combined Airframe and Powerplant- 1900 hours ( 400 general hours plus 750 hours airframe and 750 hours powerplant)
   
    

     Students are required to furnish their own hand tools and purchase their own texts; esimated cost of tools and books is between $1,500 to $2,500.
