Planning and operational aspects of “on condition” philosophies

Abstract

DURING recent years many airlines have realised that overhaul time controls alone have had little success in controlling failure frequency. Considerable effort has subsequently been devoted to identifying and continuing those scheduled maintenance activities which are effective in protecting reliability characteristics, and identifying and discontinuing those scheduled maintenance activities which are ineffective in controlling reliability characteristics.
