  • Until now, The Market of aviation parts had led by OEM(Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts because of aviation industry's nature required higher reliability and safety. But recently, The interest about PMA parts in aviation market is increasing continuously with various environmental changes, such as economic stagnation, oil price rise, development of the manufacture technique and newly rising market of Asia-Pacific region. So, this paper introduces the trend and the requirements of FAA PMA / EASA EPA in order to enhance understanding for certification for aviation parts.

  • Until now, The Market of aviation parts had led by OEM(Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts because of aviation industry's nature required higher reliability and safety. But recently, The interest about PMA parts in aviation market is increasing continuously with various environmental changes, such as economic stagnation, oil price rise, development of the manufacture technique and newly rising market of Asia-Pacific region. Actually, after 2006, FAA PMA approval parts are increasing at a rate of around 40,000 parts per year and 2.5% of PMA parts penetration, in 2007, in Asia-Pacific market is forecast to enlarge up to 8% in 2017. So, this paper introduces the process requirements of FAA PMA / EASA EPA and the status of PMA market in order to enhance understanding for certification for aviation parts and to review a new PMA market.

  • Certification by Civil Aviation Law is necessary for aircraft parts and appliances as well as aircraft, engines, and propellers to ensure safety and reliability in operation. Advanced countries in aerospace industry as like U.S.A require Parts Manufacturer Approval for aircraft parts and Technical Standard Order Authorization for designated appliances. However, there are no legal requirements for certification of aircraft parts and appliances in Korea until now. This study presents the draft to revise Civil Aviation Law, which is applicable to set up domestic certification system and maintain it equivalent to U.S. Federal Aviation Regulation.

  • This study derived a reverse engineering procedure for verifying the design identity of original parts and developed parts for PMA(Parts Manufacturer Approval) and STC(Supplemental Type Certificate) of metal brake pads for transport aircraft, which are critical parts among aircraft parts and equipment. In Korea, the regulations for reverse engineering procedures are regulated by the Parts Manufacturer Approval Guidelines, and in the United States, AC No. 21. 303-4. In the reverse engineering for the brake pad, the detailed procedures for each component were determined by selecting verification test items to confirm identity based on sample quantity, dimensional tolerance, mechanical property measurement, material, weight and volume characteristics for each component. In addition, as a result of analyzing the regulation of Korea and United States, in the case of Korea, it is necessary to establish technical standards for braking systems for transport aircraft and regulations related to flight tests.

  • In this study, the aircraft technical standards of the Korea and the United States were analyzed to derive the dynamometer test procedure required to prove the compatibility for flight test certification of the metal brake pad for transport aircraft. Since the design modification of the brake systems is classified as a major change, the STC(Supplemental Type Certificate) and the PMA(Parts Manufacturer Approval) are required. In accordance with the TSO-C135a, the technical standard order for brake system in the United States, the design landing-stop test, accelerate-stop test, and most severe landing stop test were selected among the test items for flight test. The conditions for the dynamometer test are determined according to the specifications provided by aircraft manufacturer, and the brake pad condition, deceleration, and the number of test are defined according to the TSO-C135a.

  • USA and Europe are leading a transport airplane industry. In Asia-Pacific region, air transportation and MRO industries are forecasted to be grown up rapidly. Furthermore, Japan and China entered into design and manufacture state of regional airplane, and developing countries entered into severe struggle competition for MRO industry. Global aircraft MRO and engine MRO industries are forecasted 3.4% and 7% growth respectively in next decade. In this paper, authors propose promotion strategy for technology intensive MRO of aircraft engine to create a higher value-added business.
