I need support with this Engineering question so I can learn better.
Monitoring aircraft performance has come a long way since the days of the Wright Brothers when performance was judged by fly-to-failure time. Today’s modern aircraft are monitored in a completely different way. In this discussion activity, research aircraft monitoring systems, trend analysis, and trend analysis tools, and discuss the following questions in your initial post:
- How can aircraft monitoring systems and trend analysis be used to effectively manage aircraft and component maintenance?
- What are the upper and lower control limits in trend analysis?
- How do component reliability trends affect the scheduled maintenance program?
- What are the advantages and disadvantages associated with managing a trend analysis program?
