The Impact of Conversion to the Metric Measurement System on Aircraft Maintenance at Base Level.
Abstract
The conclusions drawn in the thesis indicate that the impact of metric conversion on aircraft maintenance hardware will allow continued use of current shop machinery and servicing equipment with minor modification required in but few cases. The intermix of tools and stock of both dimensions can be accomplished wtih little difficulty by the user and will require additional storage space throughout the conversion period and for many years thereafter. Technical information will be affected but can assimilate metric in an orderly fashion.
