    A-CR-CCP-805/PF-001 ROYAL CANADIAN AIR CADETS PROFICIENCY LEVEL FIVE INSTRUCTIONAL GUIDE SECTION 1 EO C570.01 – EXAMINE THE ASPECTS OF AIRCRAFT MANUFACTURING AND MAINTENANCE THROUGH THE DEVELOPMENT OF AEROBATIC AIRCRAFT Total Time: 90 min PREPARATION PRE-LESSON INSTRUCTIONS Resources needed for the delivery of this lesson are listed in the lesson specification located in A-CR-CCP-805/ PG-001, Proficiency Level Five Qualification Standard and Plan, Chapter 4. Specific uses for said resources are identified throughout the self-study package within the section for which they are required. Self-study packages are intended to be completed by the cadet independently. More information about self- study packages can be found in the forward and preface. Review the lesson content and become familiar with the material prior to facilitating this lesson. Photocopy the self-study package located at Attachment A for each cadet. Photocopy the answer key located at Attachment B but do not provide it to the cadets. PRE-LESSON ASSIGNMENT Nil. APPROACH A self study was chosen for this lesson as it allows the cadet to examine in greater detail the aspects of aircraft manufacturing and maintenance through the development of aerobatic aircraft at their own learning pace. This encourages the cadet to become more self-reliant and independent by focusing on their own learning instead of learning directed by the instructor. INTRODUCTION REVIEW Nil. OBJECTIVES By the end of this lesson the cadet shall have examined the aspects of aircraft manufacturing and maintenance through the development of aerobatic aircraft. C570.01-1 A-CR-CCP-805/PF-001 IMPORTANCE It is important for cadets to examine the aspects of aircraft manufacturing and maintenance through the development of aerobatic aircraft as through the years flying skills and better aircraft development has created higher performing aircraft.
