Part 66 licensing for private aircraft owners?
I am thinking of getting a Part 66 license - mostly for the purpose of servicing an aircraft of my own, possibly more than that, but not as someone else's employee. The aircraft in question will be operated under AOC, and the idea is to be able to do not only routine maintenance but also e.g. customization of avionics. Sorry, I'm not yet up to spec in licensing issues - is it a B2 license that will allow me to do that and sign it out to service?
Is it at all feasible without X years of employment at a maintenance organisation? I doubt I can get the right kind of documents to certify the equivalence of skills - can I just pass the necessary exams, or should I also undergo practical training at a licensed facility regardless of the actual skill level?
