MSc Research - Airbus A350 or B787 Composite Damage Inspection & Repair Surveys

[Mana787]

Hello everyone,
As part of my Masters study in Airworthiness, I am conducting research on current field-level challenges during Damage Inspection and Repair Execution on Primary Structures of Composite-Intensive Aircraft like the Airbus A350 and Boeing 787.
I have two separate following anonymous surveys, each focusing on different stages of the repair process, and I am seeking professionals associate with damage inspection, assessment and repair execution on Airbus A350 and Boeing 787 to participate:

1. Upstream Damage Inspection & Initial Assessment
• Target participants: B1 Licensed Aircraft Engineers (Certifying Staff-licensed on Airbus A350 and/or Boeing 787), Technicians (Experienced on Airbus A350 and Boeing 787 only)
• Focus: Current field level practices, tool usages, and decision-making during damage inspection and initial assessment for composite primary structures (fuselage, wing, stabilizers)
• Link to Survey 1: https://cranfielduniversity.eu.qualtric ... eOXZQb9Cdw


2. Downstream Repair Execution
• Target participants: Composite repair technicians (Experienced on Airbus A350 and Boeing 787 only), B1 LAEs (Certifying Staff-licensed on Airbus A350 and/or Boeing 787) involved in composite repairs on Airbus A350 and Boeing 787. CAMO/Tech service engineers
• Focus: Practical challenges, procedural adherence, and operational constraints during composite structural repair execution on Airbus A350 and Boeing 787 primary structures

Regarding this survey and your expectations for persons who you would accept, you specify a B1 license. That’s not a Canadian license type, and you’re in a Canadian forum posting this. You may wish to review and reassess the qualified participants and expand the licensing credentials to include Canadian equivalents (M2 would be the closest equivalent to B1, while S licenses are applicable to structural repairs) if you’re looking for responses here, there are very few EASA license holders here
