Airbus A320 CEO General Familiarisation (Gen Fam) Course

Airbus · Online · ATA 104 Level 1

Executive overview

The Airbus A320 CEO is the single-aisle family that popularised sidestick fly-by-wire. This course gives you the working vocabulary and the system-by-system picture of the aircraft, so you can follow a technical discussion, a task card or a defect report with confidence.

What sets the A320 CEO apart is sidestick control, ECAM and three redundant hydraulic systems. The course spends time where those choices change how maintenance is planned and carried out, and covers CFM56, V2500 and PW6000 powerplants at the familiarisation level expected for non-certifying and support staff.

You study online at your own pace, with no classroom date to fit around: about 40 hours of study, each chapter group closed by a short quiz. The course is built around the familiarisation expectation known as ATA 104 Level 1 and ends with a certificate of completion.

What you gain

  • Understand the A320 CEO well enough to hold a conversation with a certifying engineer and ask the right questions.
  • Helps planners, CAMO and stores staff read technical documents for this type without guessing.
  • A solid base before a full type-rating course, which remains the route to certifying privileges.
