Topic Description

The objective of the MSG-3 is to present means for developing the scheduled maintenance tasks and intervals which need to be acceptable to the authorities. MSG-3 is of great utility for determining scheduled maintenance requirements during the life of the aircraft, component or aerospace system.There are mainly four types of scheduled maintenance according to the MSG-3 document:Aircraft Systems/Powerplant (MSI) Analyses: The MSIs are identified and the analyses are usually grouped by ATA chapters. The objective of this analysis is to define scheduled maintenance task for the MSI.Zonal Analyses: It requires an analysis of each zone on the aircraft. These analyses enable appropriate attention to electrical wiring, plumbing or ducting installations.L/HIRF Analyses: These analyses try to reduce the possibility of a single failure cause (e.g. lighting strike) or a common failure cause.

Topic Description

The FMECA is a bottom-up analysis performed on an item, system or function with the aim to identify their potential failure modes and the effects on the next higher level. It might be conducted at several levels, e.g. piece-part FMECA, functional FMECA.FMECA is the foundation of system analysis for the RAMS discipline and the fundamental input for the Fault Tree Analyses. The aim of this course is to set the knowledge for a successful implementation of FMECA for aerospace systems that allows a practical continuation of the related RAMS analyses. Consistent definition of failure modes is essential to safety analyses. Criticality definition is crucial for FHA. Detectability and means of detection are the first step towards design for availability.

Topic Description

The safety cycle is composed, at least, by the main safety assessments: Functional Hazard Assessment (FHA), Preliminary System Safety Assessment (PSSA), and the System Safety Assessment (SSA) if the assessment is at system level, or Aircraft Safety Assessment (ASA) if the assessment is at aircraft level.Certification entities expect from design companies in the aerospace industry a minute and thorough approach to safety assurance. There is flexibility in the type of analyses provided, but each decision must be justified to design specific requirements. Within this course, an experience-proven approach to safety substantiation is given, highlighting pitfalls to avoid and providing a solid timeline for safety activities following the main design milestones.
