Bring back an old topic...
With the introduction of ProPilot and the amount of people crashing (my name not to that list
) What if we tried implementing this into the ProPilot system, my idea on it goes like this...
Well there are two things that split the process up, a crash or maintenance.
CrashSo for example Jonathan (Razza) is flying, he crashes
and the crash isn't so serve (the flight logger ranks the crash on differn't aspect and ranks it out of 10, 1 being not so bad and 10 being that the plane is signed off). Say the plane gets ranked 5 on its crash. This then pops up for the people who are trained in maintenance (pass a test or something). They then have to fly as soon as possible to fix the plane and get it back into the air. The time it takes for the plane to be fixed depends on how serve the crash was, seeing this was a level 5, it will take 1 day (maintenance in reall life can be very fast). The plane then fly's back to its base.
MaintenanceIf the plane is at a base, this wont really matter, as it would easily be fixed being at a HUB. But if the plane is at its max amounts of hours and wouldn't be safe to fly back to a hub, maintenance wcould be reported and a pilot would have to fly in and make sure its up to scratch, time taken to check and repair would depend on the ware and tare of the plane.
On DutyChoosing hours you can be on duty could be done by either a scheme of slots, or by a system were the person is logged on a notified about an incident.
-Slots
You would pick your hours that you can do and then if an incident happens you should be able to sort it out.
-Log-in system
This would be better as you would be able to it when you want.
ConclusionWell I personally think this would be a rather cool addition to EHM, and we would have to sign off all those planes.
