Onboard Maintenance System Q’s Flashcards
Fatigue fuses used in structure monitoring
Are bonded to the structure and fail at different fatigue stresses
A HUMS in a helicopter is
A system which monitors time period of components in service and warns of a premature failure
A MCDU is
To dialog with the CMC
A modern aircraft CMC used
A CRT screen
A red line shows on a thermal sensitive airborne printer paper this indicates
The printer roll needs replacing
Aircraft condition monitoring monitors
Certain parameters
Aircraft normally fitted with 2 cmc and you only have one to dispatch the aircraft
Where do you fit it

An aircraft condition monitoring system
Stores information for long term error analysis
BITE fitted to onboard maintenance systems can be
Start up interruptive and continuous
Central maintenance system considers the eicas warnings cautions and advisory messages as
Flight deck effects
HUMS failure has what effect
No indication until data is downloaded
In a CMC aircraft flight deck indications and warnings are managed and provided by the
Electronic interface units
In CMC warning signals are generated by
Warning computer
In a modern aircraft a bite is carried out
Continuously when the systems are working
In an autoland aircraft fitted with a CMC
All faults are recorded in non volatile memory
In case the aeroplane is wired for dual installation of the CMC and only one computer is to be installed
It must be installed on LH side
Maintenance messages
