Help with ILS systems please!
 

Hi,

I am an aero engineering student, and have an assignment whereby i have to compile a report on the maintenance of ILS systems and present my findings.

This is for a reliability and maintenance course module, so the emphasis is on this side of things rather than how it works. i have to include:

1] a history of the developments made to the system to increase reliability

2] some details of maintenance schedules / MTBF / failure rates etc.

3] example of how incorrect maintenance of the system contributed to a near miss incident or aircraft crash.

I have searched to web and so far havent found any relevant info. I would appreciate it if any of you guys could point me in the right direction.

Cheers,
Phil :)

incorrect maintenance contributing to an incident/accident
 

Well, for starters, maintenance techs leaving the system in the test mode after finishing their duties....does NOT help.:eek:

Phil,

We would prefer that you only post a new thread to one forum .. will leave it this time as it is relevant to both TechLog and here.

regards,

JT

I've already replied in TL, so won't repeat it here.

I agree with JT. Closing this thread. Provide any answers in Tech Log.
