Template:— MoDAvDEXmessage_sortie_feedback (MoDAvDEXmsg_srt_fbk)
Context:— MoDAvDEX
Date: 2008/03/12 21:25:54
Revision: 1.14

This section specifies the template MoDAvDEXmessage_sortie_feedback.

NOTE  The template has been defined in the context of MoDAvDEX. Refer to the business context for details of related templates.

NOTE  An explanation of a template and the associated instantiation path is provided in the Template overview section.

Description

This template describes how to represent a message reporting information about a sortie that has been flown by a reportable item (normally an aircraft).

Business perspective
Sortie feedback messages represent a record of a sortie flown by an aircraft. The sortie messages are triggered when a post sortie feedback report is compiled.
Business object definition

The information necessary to record a sortie flown by a reportable item can be summarized by the UML class diagram shown in Figure 1.

NOTE    Descriptions of the information represented by the UML classes is provided in: Aviation Maintenance DEX: Business Information Requirements.

Model diagrams
The EXPRESS-G diagram in Figure 2 shows the templates and EXPRESS entities that are required to represent the template "MoDAvDEXmessage_sortie_feedback". The text highlighted in blue shows the template parameters.

Figure 2 shows the templates required to represent sortie feedback. The templates shown in yellow are standard OASIS template. Those shown in light green are business templates developed specifically for the MoDAvDEX context.

Further details of how to represent sortie feedback using ISO 10303 239 PLCS is provided in Aviation Maintenance DEX: Representing a reportable item usage activity - PLCS representation.

The following mandatory templates are shown in Figure 2 and used to represent different aspects of the sortie feedback.

Template: #1 MoDAvDEX.MoDAvDEXmessage
The template: #1 MoDAvDEX.MoDAvDEXmessage (Figure 2) is used to represent the message meta data.
Template: #2 MoDAvDEX.reportable_item_usage
the template: #2 MoDAvDEX.reportable_item_usage (Figure 2) is used to represent the sortie that was flown.
Template: #3 MoDAvDEX.reportable_item
the template: #3 MoDAvDEX.reportable_item (Figure 2) is used to represent the reportable item (normally an aircraft) that has flown the sortie.
Template: #4 assigning_time
the template: #4 assigning_time (Figure 2) is used to represent the time when the sortie finished.
Template: #5 assigning_location
the template: #5 assigning_location (Figure 2) is used to represent the take off location.
Template: #6 assigning_location
the template: #6 assigning_location (Figure 2) is used to represent the landing location.
Template: #7 MoDAvDEX.activity_property
the template: #7 MoDAvDEX.activity_property (Figure 2) is used to represent the duration of the sortie.
Template: #8 MoDAvDEX.reportable_item_property
the template: #8 MoDAvDEX.reportable_item_property (Figure 2) is used to represent the life property of the reportable item that has been increased by the sortie. Normally flying hours.
Template: #9 assigning_justification_support_item
the template: #9 assigning_justification_support_item (Figure 2) is used to establish the relationship between the life property and the sortie to record the reason for the increase in property value.
Template: #10 assigning_justification
the template: #10 assigning_justification (Figure 2) is used to establish the relationship between the life property and the sortie to record the reason for the increase in property value.
