Abstract

In response to a recent increase in accidents in the Zambian aviation industry, a study was conducted to assess the reliability of maintenance programs in the sector. A questionnaire was distributed to 108 respondents, all of whom provided a response. The results of the study were analyzed using SPSS and Microsoft Excel, and presented in the form of frequency tables and pie charts. The results revealed that 99% of the respondents had Maintenance Reliability Programs (MRPs) in place, with 50% reporting that their MRPs were effective. The study also found that the aviation industry in Zambia places a strong emphasis on safety procedures, with many respondents agreeing that stringent safety procedures are implemented.
