Identification and Assessment of Damage to Composite Aircraft Structures Training Document

2020-08-03
CURRENT
AIR6825
Individuals who complete the applicable modules aligned with this training document will be able to define the type of damage, define the extent of damage, determine if further inspection is required, evaluate the damage against published allowable damage limits, and provide accurate documentation of the damage. The intended outcome of the training is increased safety such that no aircraft is released with unknown damage and that the aircraft meets continued airworthiness requirements. The goal is to change the culture from damage discovery to damage reporting while also reducing or eliminating flight delays due to incorrect or insufficient information. Teaching levels have been assigned to the curriculum to define the knowledge, skills, and abilities graduates will need. Minimum hours of instruction have been provided to ensure adequate coverage of all subject matter including lecture and practical exercise.

Vacuum Bagging of Thermosetting Composite Repairs

2011-11-16
HISTORICAL
ARP5143
This Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) describes methods of vacuum bagging, a process used to apply pressure in adhesive bonding and heat curing of thermosetting epoxy and polyester matrix fabrications for commercial aircraft composite parts. If this document is used for the vacuum bagging of other than thermosetting epoxy and polyester materials, the fitness for this purpose must be determined by the user. The methods shall only be used when specified in an approved repair document or with the agreement of the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) or regulatory authority.
