The purpose of this paper is to indicate the increase in operational efficiency of the aircraft in frontline squadrons by implementation of effective condition-based predictive maintenance (CBPM) philosophy using data link data transfer in real-time operational environment.

    Design/methodology/approach

    Real-time data transfer from the aircraft to the maintenance hub using data link is used as the key feature behind achieving an increase in the operational efficiency.

    Findings

    Considerable amount of increase in the operational efficiency and decrease in down time could be achieved on utilization of real-time aircraft parameters in the decision-making process of CBPM.

    Practical implications

    Incorporation of this methodology in frontline operating environment would result in achieving maintenance optimization, thereby reducing the downtime of the aircraft.

    Social implications

    Helps in achieving performance optimization with comparatively reduced downtime.

    Originality/value

    Up to 20 per cent of reduction in downtime could be achieved if real-time data transfer using data link is used parameters in the decision-making process of CBPM.
