There are in excess of 28,000 pieces of TMDE owned by the Royal Saudi Air Force, consisting of over 7000 different model numbers requiring calibration. While the calibration intervals as used by the US Air Force were adequate for over twenty years, recent calculations of reliability indicate lower than desired numbers. A new system was developed for determining calibration intervals specifically for the conditions of use and maintenance found in Saudi Arabia. With limited budgetary, manpower and computer resources available, a creative yet valid method had to be set up to return the pool of TMDE to the desired level of reliability. This paper describes the development and implementation of that system. |
