Maintenance objectives

Cost Decrease the maintenance costs Make the maintenance work easier

Safety Increase Safety with maintenance low cost actions

Availability Increase the aircraft availability

Business Improve the EC business in terms of Maintenance

& Service Propose a meaningful service/product combination

helicopter maintenance specificities

Airplane Helicopter

Wild body vhicule compact

Equipments all over the AC Centralized equipments

Same product for each AC Personnalised and adaptable HC

Airplane Helicopter

Long range Take off and landing = stress

One mission type A lot of different mission

High altitude Less than 5000m


Airplane Helicopter

Low vibration stress Hight mechanical stress

Specific customer Diversity of customer

Availability as priority Failure localisation to avoid no failure fond

The airplane and the helicopter are two vehicules using the samemaintenance mode but in different objectives and different stress.

On board failure management

Problematic links to the aircraft diagnostic False Failures: False warnings Failure Localisation Ambiguity (intrinsic) Failure Propagation

All these problematic lead to : false removal (between 30 and 40% of maintenance

operations) Longer maintenance time Lost of confidence in the diagnostic tool Customer is not satisfied
