A SIMULATION STUDY OF THE IMPACT OF BASE MAINTENANCE RETURN RATE POLICIES ON REQUIREMENTS FOR AIRCRAFT ENGINE SPARES AND REPAIR LINE CAPACITIES FOR THE TF30P3 ENGINE IN THE F-111 AIRCRAFT.

Abstract

This report analyzes the impact on spare engine requirements and repair line capacities of various selected Jet Engine Base Maintenance Return Rate (JEBM-RR) policies. Each of the selected policies was evaluated by using a simulation model, the Jet Engine Management Simulator, JEMS, developed by the AFLC Simulation Center. Results are displayed graphically for easier analysis. Need for further research is indicated in the area of applying costs to the simulation results. (Author)
