The acquisition of Lockheed Martin’s F-35 Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) is thus far the most expensive defense program to date. Christopher Bolkcom a specialist in military aviation has written the Congressional Research Service document on the status, background and issues faced by the program. The Department of Defense (DoD) recognized, that now more than ever, the services need to consolidate resources and jointly tackle the shared issues of high acquisition and operational cost of aircraft.…

System Safety in the Dreamliner: Containing Battery Fires Designing a long-haul, twin-engine airliner that impressed both operator and passenger was the goal of Boeing when they launched the 7E7 program in 2003. Sweptback wings, higher-humidity in cabins, composite fuselage, ultra-high thrust engines and a simulated sky interior were just a few improvements since air transportation of an earlier generation (“Boeing 787 Dreamliner long-range,” n.d.). The aircraft plagued by launch delays,…
Reliability Centered Maintenance started when a preventative maintenance plan were developed for the Boeing 747 airplane in the 1960’s by the maintenance steering group. In the RCM process in maintenance not only ‘what can be done’ is considered but also ‘why should it be done’. To facilitate the RCM process seven questions should be asked to complete the process. • What are the functions and performance standards of the asset in the operating environment? • How does the asset fail to perform…
The invention of the airplane is most likely the most important innovations in transportation. The airplane industry is enormous; In 2016, the industry generated 501 billion US dollars. The question is why are airplanes so popular. Well, airplanes are able to drastically cut down on travel times. Although the airplane is extremely important for transporting, airplanes do have some drawbacks. For example, airplanes release harmful substances into the atmosphere. The airplane was invented by…
companies including, International Launch Services, MEADS International, Space Imaging, and United Space Alliance. Such joint ventures are possible due to the revenue brought in by the military sales and the work that was done in regards to defense. Without military sales, some of the ventures may need to fold, as their input may no longer be required. In light of such circumstances, the loss of such a prominent client is bound to send a disruptive wave throughout the organization and its…
