Impactos e análise sobre a qualidade construtiva e a manutenção em aeronaves experimentais

Abstract

Experimental aviation plays an extremely important and relevant role in the aeronautical sector when it comes to technological advancement. Therefore, it enables enthusiasts, engineers, and amateur creators to develop their aircraft in accordance with specific regulations, culminating in the creation of new machines, stimulating the improvement of new technologies, safety and maintenance patterns. Thus, this study analyzes the impacts and aspects related to the construction quality and maintenance of Brazilian experimental aircraft. However, due to the high demand in the sector, some motivators are decisive in increasing concern about standard processes, safety, and the effectiveness of the maintenance employed. In addition, the research outlines the legislation currently in force, as established by the regulatory body, the National Civil Aviation Agency (ANAC), which governs the rules and standards for the construction of these projects. The minimum technical operating requirements and responsibility for their use are considered, along with the quality of the materials used and technical training; elements addressed in this study. The text includes the emergence, from its beginning, of the development of standards with their updates and changes that are being applied today. In addition to the literature review, the study will be carried out using the qualitative method, with an in-depth documentary analysis of standards and regulations, highlighting the problems faced. So, it is possible to observe the awareness of builders and their responsibilities throughout the process, with training, inspections, and practices that respect the operational limits in the aircrafts in question.
