📖 B737 MAX Type Training Syllabus: A Deep Dive into Next-Gen Maintenance

🛠️ Decoding the Syllabus: Mastering the B737 MAX Under CAR 147

In the world of aviation maintenance, knowledge is organized by ATA Chapters, but mastery is defined by Training Levels. For the Boeing 737 MAX, the syllabus isn't just an update to the NG (Next Generation); it is a comprehensive reimagining of aircraft systems and diagnostic logic.

Whether you are an individual AME looking for a B1/B2 license endorsement or a Training Manager planning a fleet transition, understanding the granularity of the B737 MAX Type Training Syllabus is essential. At JSS Aviation, our CAR 147 approved course delivers this knowledge at the highest level—Level 3: Line and Base Maintenance.

1. 📊 Understanding the Training Levels (ATA 104)

Our syllabus is structured to move students from general familiarization to expert-level troubleshooting.

• Level 1: General Familiarization: A brief overview of the airframe, systems, and powerplant. Ideal for non-technical support staff or management.

• Level 2: Ramp & Transit: Covers system controls, indicators, and principal components. Focuses on line maintenance, servicing, and minor troubleshooting.

• Level 3: Line & Base Maintenance (The Core): This is the JSS Aviation standard. It involves detailed description, operation, component location, removal/installation, and BITE (Built-In Test Equipment) procedures to a Maintenance Manual level.

2. 🔍 Key Technical Modules: What’s Inside?

The B737 MAX syllabus covers all 40+ ATA chapters, but we place special emphasis on the systems that differentiate the MAX from its predecessors.

The Avionics & Digital Core (ATA 31, 42, 45)

The "Digital Hangar" is a centerpiece of our training. We focus heavily on the Onboard Network System (ONS) and the Maintenance Function (OMF).

• Data Aggregation: Learning to pull fault data from the integrated systems via the 15.1-inch landscape displays.

• Centralized Diagnostics: Navigating the new BITE logic to isolate intermittent electronic faults.

Powerplant Evolution: CFM LEAP-1B (ATA 71-80)

The transition from CFM56 to LEAP-1B is the most critical part of the CFM LEAP-1B technical training.

• Engine Start Logic: Understanding the extended "Bowed Rotor Motoring" sequence.

• FADEC Mastery: Deep dive into the EEC (Electronic Engine Control) software updates and troubleshooting.

Flight Controls & Fly-By-Wire Spoilers (ATA 27)

The MAX introduces a hybrid flight control system. Our syllabus covers the traditional cable-and-pulley systems as well as the new Fly-by-Wire (FBW) Spoiler System.

• Spoiler PCU Maintenance: Procedures for the new electronic actuators.

• MCAS & FCC Logic: Detailed understanding of the Flight Control Computer architecture and safety monitors.

3. 📑 Examination & Practical Standard

A CAR 147 certificate is earned, not given. Our syllabus follows the strict EASA/DGCA Appendix III standards:

Phase	Requirement	Completion Standard
Theoretical Phase	~150 Hours of Classroom/Virtual Training	75% minimum pass mark (Multiple Choice)
Practical Phase	10-15 Days of Hangar-Based Tasks	Successful Assessment of 100% Mandatory Tasks
