Show Continuing Education — Technology Continuing Education — Technology AVIATION The Aviation program is designed to prepare a student by standards of the Federal Aviation Administration, in the safe conduct of flight operations. Further objectives of the program are those which move the student from the elementary understanding of aeronautical subjects to an in-depth professional understanding of all elements of aeronautical knowledge that have a direct bearing on pilot performance. For further information, please contact the Division of Continuing Education. Courses of Instruction 101. Basic Ground School—An introductory course in aeronautical knowledge designed to give students a basic understanding of elements involved in air navigation procedures, pilot meteorology, aircraft performance, Federal Aviation rules and regulations and other subject areas having a relationship to Private Pilot performance. At the completion of this course, students should be prepared to take the F.F.A. written examination for the Private Pilot License. A Su (4) 102. Advanced Ground School—An advanced course in aeronautical knowledge designed to give students an advanced level of understanding of flight subjects necessary for adequate performance at the Commercial Pilot level. Studies include airplane performance and stability, aircraft powerplant operations, advanced flight meteorology, and advanced flight navigation. At the completion of this course, students should be prepared to take the F.A.A. written examination for the Commercial Pilot License. Students must have successfully passed the Private Pilot written examination prior to enrollment in this course. W (3) 103. Instrument Ground School—An advanced course in special aeronautical subject areas referring to pilot performance during instrument flight. Students are given an understanding of all Federal Aviation rules, regulations and procedures pertaining to flight under instrument conditions. Specialized study is also made of flight navigation and meteorology in the instrument flight environment. Students should be ready to take the F.A.A. written examination for the Instrument Rating at the completion of this course. Students should have passed the F.A.A. Commercial Pilot written examination prior to enrollment. S (3) 140. Primary Flight Training—A beginning course in basic flying techniques, pre solo and solo flights, cross country flights, navigation and flight in the National Aeronautics Space Systems. Students should be prepared for F.A.A. flight examinations for private pilot certification upon completion of this course. Students must have completed or have concurrent enrollment in aviation 101. A S Su (4) DIESEL Courses of Instruction 109. Diesel Engines—The mechanical construction and operation of both two and four stroke cycle diesel engines. Proper procedure for overhauling such as: measurement, testing, reconditioning, disassembly and reassembly. Proper PM and operation are covered. (3) 119. Diesel Fuel Injection Systems—The theory construction and operation is covered for the different types of injection systems used on diesel engines, distributor and unit-injectors are some of the types. Instruction is given in P.M., servicing and trouble shooting. (3) 129. Diesel Application Drive Trains—The proper operation, service, testing and trouble shooting for clutches, drive lines, differentials, finial drives, transmissions (standard, powershift and automatic) is covered. As each of these areas are covered both over-the-road and off-highway application are considered as it applies. (3) ELECTRONIC TECHNOLOGY Courses of Instruction 052. Direct Current Circuits—A course in fundamental electronic theory. Atomic structure of matter, voltage, current, power, resistance, inductance and capacitance as they apply to direct current circuits will be studied. Prerequisite and/or concurrent: high school algebra or equivalent. Five lectures. A (5) 053. Direct Current Laboratory—Experiments to correlate with Electronic Technology 052. A study of electronic symbols and basic circuit diagrams; basic construction practices, use of voltohm-meters and vacuum tube voltmeters. Three laboratories. A (3) 054. Alternating Current Circuits—The effects of resistance, inductance, and capacitance on current, voltage, and power re- 384 385 |
