NON-DETERIORATION OF H.R.C. FUSE-LINKS ON AIRCRAFT,

Abstract

Examination over a five-year period of H.R.C. fuse-links alleged to be defective in service revealed no signs of deterioration or 'ageing' of component parts. Examination of a large number of H.R.C. fuse links in service for over 10 years, some from Valiant aircraft with between 2,100 and 2,600 flying hours, and some from a Brittania aircraft with over 14,500 flying hours, showed that the fuse-links had not deteriorated and their performance characteristics had not altered.
