What is aircraft mainteance?

By

Aircraft maintenance

 Aircraft maintenance is the overhaul, repair, inspection or modification of an aircraft or aircraft component.

Maintenance may include such tasks as ensuring compliance with Airworthiness Directives or Service Bulletins. The maintenance of aircraft is highly regulated, in order to ensure safe and correct functioning during flight. National regulations are coordinated under international standards, maintained by bodies such as the International Civil Aviation Organization  (ICAO). The maintenance tasks, personnel and inspections are all tightly regulated and staff must be licensed for the tasks they carry out.

Aircraft maintenance

activity carried out once the aircraft has been removed from the operating environment for scheduled Check activity or for ad hoc defect investigation and rectification .

 Aircraft line maintenance :

activity carried out whilst the aircraft remains in the operating environment and is substantially fit to fly subject to specific, relatively straightforward, rectification tasks such as replacement of any component designated as an Line Replaceable Unit (LRU).

Aircraft base maintenance :

 activity carried out once the aircraft has been removed from the operating environment for scheduled Check activity or for ad hoc defect investigation and rectification activity. 

Aircraft Maintenance Technician (AMT)

 refers to a licensed qualification for carrying out aircraft maintenance. Aircraft Maintenance Technicians (AMTs) inspect and perform or supervise maintenance, preventive maintenance, and alteration of aircraft and aircraft systems.

What is human factor?

By
The study of Human Factors is about understanding human behavior and performance. When applied to aviation operations, Human Factors knowledge is used to optimize the fit between people and the systems in which they work in order to improve safety and performance. Gain a comprehensive overview of the effect and management of Human Factors in aviation with this foundation course. The operational Human Factors knowledge gained on this course can also be applied to safety investigation activities. Human factor is one of very important cause of accidents of aircraft in aviation. Human factor training should be conducted in every 2 year of time period. Maintenance human factors research is to identify and optimize the factors that affect human performance in maintenance and inspection. Research attention to personnel includes: Qualification Training Motivation Worker safety Health Return on investment Professionalism Human capabilities and limitations Our research co...
