J85 Cost/Benefit Engine Study

Abstract

This report documents the results of an independent evaluation of JB5 maintenance practices and the data reporting system used for parts life tracking (PLT) of selected life limited components. A major requirement of the study was to quantify the costs/benefits associated with using the D042 Comprehensive Engine Management System (CEMS) for J85 PLT versus the system now in use. The techniques and methodologies used in the analysis are compatible with the philosophy of Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM)....
