Originální abstrakt

Since late 90's of the past century, the General Aviation (GA) aircraft systems have became much more complex and sophisticated. Especially in avionics, systems took a great step from mechanical instruments to adoption of multifunctional display units capable of single-pilot IFR operations. Therefore, it was necessary to significantly extend safety procedures and assessment methods and change maintenance practices already adapted for the category. The paper discusses problems of reliability/safety procedures application, current trends in maintenance and the way the systems architecture is affected. In addition, an increased effort in application of Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) in the small transport aircraft category is discussed and emphasized. Recent development of aircraft systems also affects education of aerospace engineers. Methods for safety and reliability assessment are presented in master study programmes on Institute of Aerospace Engineering (Brno University of Technology). Since the institute has extensive cooperation with the industry on this field, students receive first hand experience in safety assessment of GA aircraft systems.
