Delaying planes’ dispatch can cost $10,000 or more per hour, and a flight cancellation event could lead to a penalty of over $100,000.*

Learn more about the costly impact of aircraft dispatch delays due to unplanned maintenance action and how you can work alongside other stakeholders, and use guidance tools, to avoid them.

The IATA Aircraft Health Monitoring white paper shows how using aircraft and fleet-generated data can identify the aircraft’s needs to meet them as quickly and efficiently as possible.

WHAT'S IN THE WHITE PAPER?

  • Successful steps taken for debated industry elements
  • The harmonization of design and integration intertwined with operational aspects
  • Considerations for adopting an effective risk-based framework for Aircraft Health Monitoring implementation
  • An Aircraft Health Monitoring Roadmap guiding toward proper aircraft health management

Aviation industry studies have found that the origin of as many as 20% of all in-flight engine shutdowns can be traced to maintenance error.

In the 2020-2039 Pilot and Technician Outlook, experts from The Boeing Company predicted the need for more than 739,000 new maintenance technicians over the next 20 years. Advancements in technology are continuous, and aviation maintenance technicians must acquire new skill sets while still maintaining the ability to service older aircraft.

MRO, or maintenance in general, is a major contributor to aircraft operating costs, flight delays, and cancellations where airlines are more likely to spend more on maintenance than on fuel or crew. -IEOM Society
