Aircraft maintenance eng - Aircraft Maintenance procedures -scenario for systems integration - Research Paper Examplerding the aircrafts system failures, system integration, work party Resource Management, and tech recorders among others were evaluated, and the following information regarding the situation were summarized.The aircraft (Airbus A380) departed Changi International Airport for Sidney, Australia on November 4th, 2013 at 0157 hours UTC. This aircraft (Airbus A380 whose registration number is VH-OQA) carried a join of 469 passengers (that is, 440 passengers and 29 members of crowd) (ATSB 2010). During that day of flight, the weather was favorable, and was described by the metrological department of Changi International Airport as a clear and sunny Singapore day. after(prenominal) an approximate of 6 minutes after the takeoff of the plane (that is, at 0202 hours UTC), and as the aircraft was climbing 7000 feet over Bantam Island in Indonesia, it was reported that the crew members unverbalised a number of loud banging sounds (ATSB, 2010). These banging sounds were followed by ECAM (Electronic Centralized Aircraft Monitor) messages. These alerts were more than 50 in number and indicated that the aircrafts Number 2 engine experienced a catastrophic failure. Immediately, the crew members initiated holding pattern then started to diagnose the problem. After approximately 50 minutes (that is at 1452 UTC) the crew members made a decision to return to Changi International Airport in Singapore and attempt to land (ATSB 2010).At 1632 hours UTC, the crew members managed to land the aircraft successfully with only one engine operating fully, with a maximum landing weight (MLW) of more than 50000 pounds, and in absence of the aircrafts anti-lock brakes. In addition, the aircraft was stopped at distance of approximately 450 feet from the run way end (ATSB 2010).The disintegration of engine number 2, as indicated by investigations, produced a number of debris t hat struck (hit) the aircrafts fuselage. Pieces of IP (Intermediate Pressure) turbine disc penetrated the aircrafts left wing
