• Abstract:
  The purpose of this report is to provide a complete overview of the Federal Aviation Administration International Conference on Aging Airplanes held in Arlington, Virginia, on June 1-3, 1988. The conference was attended by approximately 400 representatives of airlines, manufacturers, aviation industry groups, and civil airworthiness authorities of other countries, and the general public. The conference was held to exchange views and hold listening sessions and brainstorming panels to explore ideas and suggestions that will contribute to the safety of the aging fleet. After the plenary session, the conference broke up into four panels: (1) Airframe, (2) Nondestructive Inspection, (3) Human Factors of Inspections, and (4) Engines. This report is a consolidation of all of the presentations given by keynote speakers, a narrative summary of the four panel discussions, and remarks made at the closing session. This report does not include any final conclusions or recommendations of the Federal Aviation Administration.
