Czech term

Resurs (motoru)

Czech to English Tech/Engineering Aerospace / Aviation / Space
Jedná se, pokud tomu správně rozumím, o zbývající životnost motoru v letových hodinách či kilometrech. Potřeboval bych anglický termín. Mockrát díky za tipy.

here: [remaining] TBO

The most general term is service life. However, the usual one for aircraft engines is TBO - time between overhauls (often interpreted as "time before overhaul", too). The time left before the next overhaul can be designated as "remaining TBO", although the usual way in aviation is to indicate the time since last ovehaul (TSO, or TSOH, or SMOH, or TSMOH, M stands for "major").

Oh, and it's never expressed in kilometers, it's flight hours only. Sometimes, there are additional limitations on years in operation and/or start cycles. For example, on my aircraft it's 2000 flight hours or 12 years, whichever comes earlier.

Many thanks for a brisk and very detailed answer!

agree Pavel STORKAN : Počet motorových (nebo letových, není stejné) hodin do vyššího stupně údržby (generální oprava) nebo do konce životnosti - záleží na tom, o jaký agregát/součást/motor se jedná

Ano, a existuji také různé způsoby výpočtu motorových a letových hodin. Díky!
