The Identification of a Precedence Network Associated with Base Level Aircraft Maintenance.
Abstract
The objective of this study was to develop a method of identifying precedence networks associated with aircraft maintenance that is more efficient than totally relying on the memory and experience of mechanics in the field. A precedence network is the sequence in which tasks should be performed because of their interdependencies. An example of this type of dependency would be the necessity to repair a fuel cell before refueling an aircraft. This research involved the use of the Logistic Composite Model (L-COM) developed by Headquarters, Air Force Logistics Command and the Rand Corporation, the F-4E data base which had been constructed as part of Headquarters, Tactical Air Command's L-COM Study, and Maintenance Data Collection System records for F-4E aircraft.
