Module 17 Propeller: Cat A1 Exam Manual

Module 17 · Cat A1 · 6 syllabus subjects

Executive overview

Module 17, Propeller, asks candidates to master propeller theory, pitch control and governing, synchronising, feathering, de-icing and propeller maintenance. It is pitched at Category A1 depth, where recognition and understanding of line-maintenance tasks come first, so every chapter of this secure ebook is selected for Cat A1 candidates and nothing is padded with content outside your category.

The edition maps to 6 syllabus subjects of Regulation (EU) 2023/989, Part-66 Appendix I: 6 at Level 1. That split tells you where to spend your hours, since Level 3 subjects are examined in the greatest depth.

Study it alongside the Quiz Engine: each syllabus reference in this manual is a Quiz Competency, so you can practise one subject at a time, then run a timed simulation of the Module 17 examination. Your Online Senior Instructor uses the same references to send you back to the right chapter.

How it helps you pass the exam

  • After the manual you can describe how blade angle changes with speed and pitch setting, explain constant-speed governing and feathering and carry out and record the core propeller checks.
  • It confronts the classic stumbling block head on: pitch-change mechanisms and governor behaviour.
  • Expect a short module whose questions repeat the same mechanisms from different angles; the chapter order follows the syllabus so you can tick subjects off as you go.
