Inspection basics of an aircraft

Inspection of an aircraft is not an easy job. Though all the steps for the process is given on the inspection manual. The fact that any minor mistake can lead to human casualties is in itself a thing to get nervous about.
There are many varieties of inspection in any aircraft.
One of the various class of aircraft inspections are:
1. A - check

2. B - check

3. C - check

4. D - check

Other inspection involve:

1. 100 Hours check

2. DI (Daily Inspection)

3. PDI (Pre- flight Daily Inspection)

4. HLI (Heavy Landing Inspection)

ATA numbering system

 An aircarft has a lot of parts, manufacturing them is one thing maintaining them is some other level challange. Thus to describe what needs to be done for what part requires a lot of documentation.  The easy way engineers have come up is to name each section of the aircraft as different title numbers.  ATA- Air Traffic association. It was created by people in ATA so called ATA chapters.  with 100 chapters ATA  So when some one says ATA chapter 72 it will always mean engine. ATA 27 flight controls ATA 32 landing gear ATA 72 is engine  and so on If we go even deeper. ATA 72-00-01 is fan module ATA 72-00-02 is core module ATA 72-00-03 is HPT Module ATA 72-00-04 is LPT module ATA 72-00-05 is AGB module and so on

Understanding DO 178C (Safety critical avionics software)

DO-178C (Document for Operational) What Is DO-178C? DO-178C , officially titled “Software Considerations in Airborne Systems and Equipment Certification,” is a set of guidelines published by RTCA (U.S.) and EUROCAE (Europe). It provides a rigorous framework to plan, develop, test, and certify software used in aircraft systems , ensuring that the software is both safe and compliant with regulatory requirements. It is widely accepted by FAA , EASA , and other aviation authorities worldwide. Why DO-178C Is Important Airborne software can impact human lives . Whether it’s controlling engine thrust, displaying flight routes, or automating cabin pressure, a software error could have catastrophic consequences . DO-178C ensures: Safety-critical systems behave predictably Software is free from unintended behavior Traceability exists between requirements, code, and tests Key Principles of DO-178C 1. Software Levels (DAL – Design Assurance Levels) The stringency of testing and proce...

Different Modules of Aircraft engine

There are mainly 17 different modular structures in an Aircraft engine. 1. Fan module. a) Spinner Code b) Fan blades c) Fan forward Case d) LPC stator e) LPC rotor f) Fan shaft g) Fan frame 2. Core module a) HPC Stator b) HPC rotor c) compressor rear frame d) combustor e) HPT stage 1 module assy 3. HPT module a) HPT stator b) HPT rotor 4. LPT module a) LPT assy b) Turbine rear frame 5.
