The NWAATC will utilize the grant funds to establish an Aviation Maintenance Technology Program, which will be certified under the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) - Regulation 147 (see Exhibit A) for training of airframe and powerplant mechanics (A&P). The location of the NWAATC is shown on the project map, which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. Northwest Arkansas Aviation Technologies Center (NWAATC) The NWAATC is a new private non-profit corporation established to develop and implement a broadly based workforce development program which has, as its focus, the teaching of highly technical skills required by the FAA for certification of people to work on aircraft. The Grantee will provide the EIF grant funds to the NWAATC to establish an Aviation Maintenance Technology Program (A&P) at Drake Field in Fayetteville.

The NWAATC will provide an audit of any grants funds received on an annual basis until all funds are expended. The three-phase curriculum, consisting of 1,960 hours of instruction, is designed to provide graduates with highly technical skills required by the aviation and aerospace industry, but such skills are widely applicable to all industries. The first general phase provides students with training in mathematics, physics, electricity, fluids, corrosion control, materials and processes. The second airframe phase teaches sheet metal and structures, finishes, welding, rigging, gear systems, hydraulic and pneumatic power systems, atmosphere control, electronics and instruments, communication and navigation systems, fuel systems and fire protection systems. The third phase powerplant curriculum provides technical instruction in powerplant theory and maintenance, including instruments, fire protection, electrical systems, lubrication systems, ignition and starting systems, induction and airflow systems fuel systems, cooling systems, and exhaust systems. The NWAATC is designed to accommodate 150 students. Course work is expected to last 15 months for day sessions and 18 months for night sessions.
