not sure there is a formula, what you need is the MPD, what tasks are needed and the manhours, elapsed time for each task, then add them up. C checks we used to say for each manhour scheduled x2 for defects/rectification etc.

I wonder if somebody could provide me a simple formula which i can use it to calculate A check man hours (per check ) and C check man hours ( per check ) roughly. Then i can get an idea how much man hours i need for up coming A or C check.

Sheronfrd,
The information you are looking for tends to be regarded as commercially sensitive and is at its essence the commercial end of a maintenanceorganisation.
The big variable here is as Beech_boy says, what is the aircraft?
I would suggest that if this is an academic exercise that you discuss this with a maintenance organisation, or if you are using this practically then youneed to take into account a lot of things, as a starting list:
· Experience or the engineers carrying out thecheck
· Experience of the engineers at carrying out thatcheck
· Age of the aircraft
· Who previously maintained the aircraft
· Availability of any specialist tooling
· Availability of spares
I’m sure others will suggest more variables, but I would suggest that you doyour homework so you get an understanding of the process and variablesapplicable to your own organisation.
