EUROCAE – Call for Experts!
New WG-132 Automated Aircraft Inspection: Calling All Experts!
The aviation industry has begun testing the capabilities of small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (sUAS) for aircraft maintenance. However, there is little industry guidance on the equivalence of using such a tool in place of physical aircraft inspections.
WG-132 aims to develop standards, procedures, processes, and guidelines for the implementation and adoption Automated Aircraft Inspection within the maintenance function.
With a wide range of tasks that can be enhanced by automated tools such as sUAS, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Virtual Reality (AI/ML/VR), clear guidelines are needed to ensure continued safe and efficient operations. Industry-driven guidance will help advance, organise, and design current and future applications, including leveraging automation for non-destructive inspections using modified automated platforms.
The objective is to begin with a comprehensive report on aircraft inspection, which will define the roadmap for standards production.
The kick-off Meeting for WG-132 is scheduled for 5 June at the EUROCAE Offices in Paris, and is also open to non-members, who will be invited to join EUROCAE if they wish to continue their participation in the Working Group.
