Question

Monitoring aircraft performance has come a long way since the days of the Wright Brothers when performance was judged by fly-to-failure time. Today's modern aircraft are monitored in a completely different way. Some onboard computers limit how much a pilot will be able to maneuver during flight, while others incorporate a health management system that monitors and relays information back to ground operations. The information transmitted back to ground operation can be used to troubleshoot aircraft problems and assure ground personnel, supplies, and equipment are available when the aircraft lands or provide real-time information during an in-flight emergency. For this activity, you will choose one aircraft and create a Pecha Kucha-style presentation discussing the advantages and disadvantages of an aircraft's monitoring system. In addition, address any safety concerns, good or bad, that you have discovered while researching this topic. You may use any resources, internal or external to the course.
