FL Technics - Aircraft Maintenance & Repair (MRO)

Due to the fact that approximately 80% of all aircraft accidents are attributed to human factors, the issue has been widely discussed among aviation professionals for many years now. Up to 15% of these accidents are blamed on the faults of the aircraft mechanics or the engineering staff and fatigue remains one of the main issues on list of the human factors that often result in poor performance on behalf of aviation technicians. Pilots are strictly regulated and receive detailed instructions on how to deal with all human factors which might influence flight safety, but what about aviation maintenance personnel?

The new Boeing Dreamliner which costs over USD 200 million is made out of composite materials. Two thirds of its aluminium body parts were traded for components, produced from a new, much lighter material – carbon reinforced plastic. Part of the Boeing 777 tail is produced from carbon fibre – the material that Airbus has been using in its aircraft for several years now. Almost the entire A350 is manufactured using composite materials only. These materials are becoming concurrent not only in the new generation aircraft production, but also in the MRO sector and aircraft maintenance training processes.
