Abstract

Flight Safety is the primary issue of any aircraft/helicopter system project and it is reachable only and only by means of the system approach. Aircraft Fuel Quantity Gauging Subsystem (FQGS) flight safety programme fundamental, includingFQGS system risk and safety analysis, research and engineering activities/tasks/actions are summarised and listed with the intent to cope with the necessary proper interrelationship and relative cross correlation. Major processes for flight safety such as Reliability and Risk Analysis, FMECA, FTA, BITE and so on are described in the terms of safety historical case. FQGS functional redundancy is SRS and the implementation of its analysis, reliability and safety program activities are essential to reach flight safety certification, validation and risk assessment. So FQGS Risk and Reliability Analysis, FMECA and Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) procedures implementat
