The "Inspection Authorization Test Prep" provides Aviation Maintenance
Technicians (AMTs) with all the information needed to pass the FAA's
Knowledge Exam for Inspection Authorization, and helps candidates become
familiar with the privileges and limitations of the highest level of
maintenance certification. This book is an important reference source
for all AMTs seeking to add Inspection Authorization (IA) to his or her
qualifications, as well as AMT schools preparing students for the IA
test. All IA candidates must take and pass the FAA's exam, yet it
remains a "closed test" in that the exact database of questions is not
available to the public, which makes the IA Test Prep a great way to
prepare for it. The IA exam differs from other FAA exams in that
questions do not refer to a specific figure. Instead, applicants must
learn to glean the information they need from the FAA Supplement
(CT-8080-8) made available for use during the test. The over 500 sample
questions typify those that candidates are likely to encounter, and
train readers in the use of the available documents. Answer choices are
supported with explanations, with FAA references identified for further
study. Also provides details on what applicants need to know about the
certification process, insight into the function of an IA, and excerpts
of regulations, advisory circulars, airworthiness directives, type
certificate data sheets, FAA orders and aircraft specifications.
Resources such as pertinent excerpts from these FAA documents and more
are reprinted in this study guide; additionally, readers can access
additional study material for this book at a special "Reader Resources"
page at the ASA website. The IA Test Prep conveniently compiles the
reference materials necessary to prepare for this exam into one volume,
for an organized study program that AMT schools, instructors, and
individuals alike can use to streamline their studies.
