UNIT V – AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE (Aircraft Maintenance )

What is ageing aircraft maintenance production focused on?

• Preventing corrosion

• Addressing structural fatigue

• Upgrading avionics systems

• Improving fuel efficiency

What is the primary advantage of MIG welding?

• It is faster than other methods

• It produces stronger welds

• It requires minimal operator skill

• It is suitable for thin materials

When performing wood gluing in aircraft maintenance, what type of adhesive is commonly used?

• Epoxy

• Silicone

• Hot melt

• Polyurethane

What is the primary advantage of TIG welding over other methods?

• It produces cleaner welds

• It requires less equipment

• It works well in outdoor environments

• It is faster than other methods

Which welding method is known for its versatility and ability to weld various metals?

• TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas)

• MIG (Metal Inert Gas)

• Plasma arc

• Oxy-fuel welding

What is the primary concern addressed by EROPS and ETOPS regulations?

• Fuel efficiency

• Passenger comfort

• Aircraft range and endurance

• Maintenance procedures

Which welding method is known for its ability to weld a wide range of materials and thicknesses?

• TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas)

• MIG (Metal Inert Gas)

• Plasma arc

• Oxy-fuel welding

What is the significance of ETOPS certification for aircraft?

• It allows twin-engine aircraft to operate on extended routes over water or remote areas

• It certifies the aircraft for use in extreme weather conditions

• It mandates additional maintenance checks for long-haul flights

• It ensures compliance with environmental regulations

What is the primary goal of extended range operations (EROPS)?

• To increase the distance an aircraft can fly without refueling

• To improve passenger comfort during long-haul flights

• To reduce fuel consumption

• To enhance aircraft reliability

What is the primary objective of condition monitoring maintenance?

• To reduce the frequency of routine maintenance checks

• To identify and address potential issues before they lead to failures

• To extend the lifespan of aircraft components

• To increase the resale value of the aircraft
