Leonardo AW139 General Familiarisation (Gen Fam) Course

Leonardo (rotary wing) · Online · ATA 104 Level 1

Executive overview

The Leonardo AW139 is an intermediate twin-engine helicopter. 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 AW139 apart is a four-axis autopilot and an integrated avionics system. The course spends time where those choices change how maintenance is planned and carried out, and covers Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6C-67C turboshafts 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 AW139 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.
