Report
This is 2nd maitenance workshop in Japan. at this workshop everyone learn about glider check , repair and maitenance of other equipment (reserve, harness, connector...). after last time we modiftied a lot for this workshop. and then we tried to found out good way.
at first the operator have to know about EN certification, materials. after this classroom we started to practice how to maintenance.
The operator need a lot of knowledge and skill for control these things.
on everyday we ate brakefast on 6:30AM. before 8:00 AM we started at classroom. after some suggestion and discussion we almost stayed at Atlier.
For glider check we have nice tools ( called ACT). we use it, easy to understand how to do it. Glider check means -visiale inspection, cloth porosity, cloth strength, line strength, line trim, flight test. many people only focus on line trim. but not only this. ACT showed everything to us easely.
we also took a time for repair. making several type of line and breaking load test. It is very interesting. If stitching a little bit different , breaking load is huge different. cloth repair : modern glider have a lot of inner structure. we need clear plan before repair it.
Reserve inspection and packing is important,too. we have several type of reserve. but key point of packing is same. anyway all type is " line first" deployment.
we could get a lot of pratice during the 7 days. and everyone continue to practice at home for Tx EXPERT certification.
our staff will move to USA. and then go to next maintenance workshop.
