Impact of Maintainability Analysis on SST Inlet Control Design 680352
Maintainability analysis incorporated into the initial design of the F-111 air inlet control system has achieved greater dispatch reliability for this aircraft. Experience from this program, together with knowledge gained from today’s commercial jet engine aircraft components, can be used for design and development guidance for the air inlet control for the Supersonic Transport (SST).
Air inlet control experience on a supersonic military aircraft is reviewed and applicable commerical jet engine component maintainability data are presented.
