Abstract: A component life prediction system configured to predict the remaining life of a consumable component installed on an aircraft. The system includes a processor configured to: receive wear information indicative of a current wear state of the component; receive schedule information indicative of a future flight schedule for the aircraft; and determine the remaining life of the component based on the received wear information and the received schedule information.

Abstract: Computer-implemented methods and systems for selecting components to be used in an aircraft system including: a reliability evaluation function, to produce a reliability score, and a complexity evaluation function, to produce a complexity score, are provided; and a multi-objective optimisation function is performed to determine at least one set of candidate components for the aircraft system that satisfy one or more conditions. The multi-objective optimisation function includes selecting a new set of candidate components, performing at least one of the reliability evaluation function and the complexity evaluation function, and evaluating at least one of the reliability score and the complexity score according to the conditions. The new set of candidate components are stored in associated with an indication of the outcome of the evaluation. An aircraft comprising a set of components that have been selected from one or more of the stored sets of components is also provided.

Abstract: A test apparatus and method for testing a trained classifier configured to control an aircraft system. Scenario data includes operating inputs representing an operational state of an aircraft and classifier outputs for controlling the aircraft system, is obtained. Model data representing a model of the at aircraft system is obtained. Error categorisation data for each aircraft operating scenario is generated based on respective classifier outputs applied to the model.

Abstract: An aircraft is disclosed having a wing, the wing having a fixed wing with a wing tip device moveably mounted about a hinge at the tip thereof. The wing tip device is operable between a flight configuration, and a load alleviating configuration for load alleviation during flight. The aircraft includes a restraining assembly operable between a restraining mode in which the wing tip device is held in the flight configuration using a restraining force such as by a brake, and a releasing mode in which the restraining force on the wing tip device is released, such that the wing tip device may adopt the load alleviating configuration.
