Robbery without violence
As an emgineer at an African airline I'm trying to come up with a way of managing life limited parts- portable oxygen bottles,fire extinguishers and megaphones for the aircraft in our fleet. We do an audit of the items at each check but once in a while some items are robbed to service other aircraft at line maintenance.
Robbery is a fact of life in this industry but what I wonder is whether it's feasible to track these pertable bottles by part and serial number. Would really like to hear your experiences because from what I hear tracking those items is like a wild goose chase and is it really worth it?
