What is actually Aircraft Zero Stress ?
I think that no stress acting on aircraft is kind of impossible
​​​​​​Is there really such thing as aircraft zero stress ?

In what context are you asking? For example, when it comes to G-force on aircraft structures the stress can go from positive in nature, to neutral (zero), and to negative in nature. In general, most aircraft require some minimal positive force/stress to keep all the systems functioning properly unless it is specifically certified to do otherwise.

Maybe zero stress in term of jacking the aircraft for major structure repair ?

I've never heard the term "zero stress" used before in an aviation context. In most structural repairs there may be instructions to relieve static loads or remove items to ensure proper fastener alignment, etc. but not zero stress. So without an actual example of its use can't offer much more.

You are correct. In aircraft maintenance, term "zero stress" is used when a/c is shored to reduce stresses in the repair area to a minimum.

Hi guys,
nowday all the tasks related to continuing airworthiness was oversee by CAMO
Do we still need Technical Services ?
is technical service the same thing as CAMO ?
