2.1 The primary objective of FMEA is to provide
a comprehensive, systematic and documented investigation which establishes
the important failure conditions of the craft and assesses their significance
with regard to the safety of the craft, its occupants and the environment.
2.2 The main aims of undertaking the analysis
are to:
-
.1 provide the Administration with the results
of a study into the craft's failure characteristics so as to assist
in an assessment of the levels of safety proposed for the craft's
operation;
-
.2 provide craft operators with data to generate
comprehensive training, operational and maintenance programmes and
documentation; and
-
.3 provide craft and system designers with data
to audit their proposed designs.
