The reliability of aircraft systems directly impacts flight safety and dispatch reliability. Determining spare parts demand during aircraft operation can be a difficult exercise because demand is stochastic in nature. Spare parts planning can significantly improve if it is based on trends and fault/failure history of aircraft component parts. This study presents a method for planning spare parts inventory during aircraft operation based on statistical data of times to failure of aircraft components. The quantity of required spare parts is calculated based on fault/failure data and the required level of reliability. A statistical simulation method is used to check for the correctness of the calculations.
