ANALYSIS OF AVIATION INCINDENTS OCCURRING ON THE SW-4 HELICOPTER IN THE YEARS 2010–2020
Main Article Content
Abstract
This paper presents the issue of aviation incidents on the SW-4 helicopter from 2010 to 2020. Increasing the level of reliability and maintaining the highest possible efficiency of aviation equipment should be preceded by an extensive analysis of former incidents. In this paper was conducted a division delineating the factors influencing the occurrence of incidents on the SW-4 helicopter, detailing the most common faults. A reliability analysis was conducted for each year of the helicopter’s utilization. Finally, conclusions were drawn that can provide a basis for improving the level of operation.
