• Developing a bracket/alignment tool for the 777 EFB (fixed) installation: involves developing a tool for the installation of the Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) on the Boeing 777.
• Cabin Engineering: The problem of discoloring lighting in aircraft can be addressed by either planned replacement of TL lamps and lenses or by investing in LED lighting with new lenses, where a business case must be developed. And for Engineering Aircraft Phase Out: Developing a calculation model to map out the phase-out of aircraft, focusing on required resources, bottlenecks, and the ability to easily analyze planning changes and "what-if" scenarios. (Note: this is one internship assignment.)
