An ECM Example (Event)
„Hello ZRH MCC, this is Flight 123 fromZRH to LAX. We have a vibration and exhaust gas temperature alert in the cockpiton engine 2. Please give us support.“
Maintenance Control Center contactsEngine Troubleshooting and Engine Engineeringfor analysis and support.

An ECM Example (Analysis & Action)
The automatic on-line data download via ACARS allows immediate review of engine data and aircraftexceedance reports by Engineering.
17© SR Technics 2007
An ECM Example (Consequence & Saving)
„Flight 123, this is ZRH calling. Unfortunately weconfirm an engine problem and ask you to comeback to ZRH for troubleshooting.“
Engine removed in ZRH. Shop inspection revealed turbinedamage (about USD 2 million), butdue to immediate action, costexceedance up to USD 5 million oreven engine write off avoided.
