SofemaOnline (SOL) www.sofemaonline.com considers best practices related to the management of Recurrent Defects within the Maintenance Control Centre
Introduction - How To Ensure That Outcomes Of Repeated Defect Analysis Provide Meaningful Results
Maximization of fleet availability depends in part on having the ability to identify potential repeating defects on either individual or fleet aircraft and to expedite the necessary maintenance action.
» Being able to identify such repeating defects is dependent on a number of variables
o Has the defect been correctly recorded into the reliability system?
o Can we rely on Engineering to ensure that outcomes of repeated defect analysis provide meaningful results?
EWIS Stands for Electrical Wiring Interconnect System and it is an abbreviation for something which has been around a long time. In fact any wiring, even a single wire may be considered as EWIS.
Training related to Electrical Wiring Interconnect System (EWIS) was introduced by European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) in August / September 2008. The details were to be found in 3 Acceptable Means of Compliance (AMC) documents, specifically AMC 20-21, AMC 20-22, AMC 20-23.
EWIS is Mandatory training requiring both Initial and Recurrent elements with details of the identified groups being detailed in AMC 20-22.

Aviation Human Factors training has only been mandatory for the last 10 years with the EASA compliant maintenance environment.
Why Aviation Human Factors Training?
Well currently some 80% of aircraft accidents are attributable to human error, shared between pilots, maintenance staff and Air Traffic Control, Ground Operations and a very small percentage to other factors.
In the main it should be understood that this is a situation which is recognized as rectifiable through the process of raising awareness, training including the associated management of competence and implementation of effective process and procedure and effective communication within the workplace.
We are very pleased to announce the availability of our latest training which provides for an opportunity to update regarding both the status and effectiveness of your organisational SMS.
Building on the successful release of several Aircraft Maintenance Planning and Production Planning Courses we are pleased to offer this opportunity to provide for a review and update of SMS best practice processes to be developed within your organisation.
Developed to be completed in one day Safety Management System Overview and Recurrent provides for a comprehensive review of the overall effectiveness of your SMS.
We have watched Safety Management Systems grow following an understanding that the reality today is that the major cause of accidents is related to human error which in some way is able to impact the overall process increasing the level of risk and exposure.
