The University of Dayton Research Institute (UDRI) supports the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in conducting research on the structural integrity requirements for the U.S. commercial transport airplane fleet. The primary objective of this task was to support the FAA Operational Loads Measurement Program by developing new and improved methods and criteria for processing and presenting commercial transport aircraft flight and ground loads usage data. The scope of activities included: (1) defining the service-related factors that affect the operational life of commercial aircraft; (2) designing an efficient software system to reduce, store, and process large quantities of optical quick access recorder data; and (3) reducing, analyzing, and providing processed data in statistical formats for the FAA to reassess existing certification criteria. Equally important, these new data will also enable the FAA, the aircraft manufacturers, and the airlines to better understand and control those factors that influence the structural integrity of commercial transport aircraft. Presented herein are Embraer-145XR aircraft operational usage data collected from 47,273 flights, representing 88,305 flight hours, recorded by a single U.S. operator. These data will provide the user with statistical information on aircraft usage, ground and flight loads occurrences, and systems operational usage based on routine ERJ-145XR commercial service.
