And having the right testing equipment is essential
to proper servicing, adds Congdon. " We made
the investment in sophisticated test equipment, " he
said. " This test equipment provides the ability to put
landing gear on a fixture and simulate landing compression
loads. We're using that technology even on
the gear that doesn't require it because we produce
a better product that way. "
Repair vs Replacement
When it comes to landing gear maintenance and
overhaul, Congdon notes, operators should work
with shops that can effectively repair components
which otherwise might be deemed scrap and subsequently
replaced.
" That's the best way to get the costs under control, "
he said. " If a shop has in-house engineering capabilities,
in-house parts manufacturing authority (PMA)
and in-house machining operations, you can provide
the best package to the customer for an efficient and
cost-effective landing gear overhaul. "
Ingold emphasizes the importance of maintaining
a robust supply chain for operators and maintenance
providers alike. " The sophistication of the supply
chain is a value differentiator for an airline because
of how complex the repairs can get and how quickly
the airline needs them, " he said. " This year, we have
gone from flying very little to ramping up a global
aviation industry again. It can be a challenge to get
inventory ready to feed these operations that are
expanding very rapidly. "
Having the right testing
