Advanced Damage Detection and Repair Methodologies for High Utilization General Aviation Aircraft

通用航空(GA) -除军事飞行或定期民用客运和货运以外的飞行活动-是加拿大重要航空航天部门的关键部分。包括在GA部门是许多飞行训练学校在全国所有地区。其中许多，就像加拿大通用航空的许多其他实体一样，碰巧也是中小型企业。这意味着，即使是在运行中的飞机中出现适度的停机时间，也可能对通用航空业务的生存能力产生不利影响。由这些飞行学校操作的这些飞机飞行非常频繁，通常一天飞行很多次，比私人飞行员的典型飞行速度要高得多。与此同时，如果飞机不飞行，那么美洲国家组织可能会失去收入。因此，最大限度地减少停机时间，以保持盈利能力，同时保持加拿大航空运营商要求的高水平安全，这一点非常重要。

General aviation (GA) - flight activities other than military flights or scheduled civilian passenger and cargo traffic - is a key part of Canada's important aerospace sector. Included in the GA sector are many flight training schools in all regions of the country. Many of these, like many other entities involved in general aviation in Canada also happen to be small and medium enterprises. This means that even moderate amounts of down time among the operational aircraft could have a detrimental effect on the viability of the GA business. These aircraft operated by these flight schools are flown very frequently, often many times a day, a rate much higher than the typical pace of flights for a private pilot. At the same time, if the aircraft are not flying then OAS may lose revenue. Therefore, it is very important that downtime is minimized to maintain profitability while maintaining the high levels of safety required of Canadian aviation operators.
