THE OPERATING QUESTION

For a bidder, “62225447 ACSR Controller Obsolescence” raises a precise operating question: how should evidence, ownership and delivery design remain coherent around interfaces, weather and continuity?

Active Control Structural Response (ASCR) Controller Obsolescence, to address ACSR installed on the Merlin Mk4/4a, as it had been identified that only the Mk4/4A would be modified and that the existing ACSR Controllers would be used to support the Merlin Mk2 fleet, therefore there is no commonality between the Merlin Mk4/4A fleet and the Merlin Mk2; the modification does not allow fitment of the existing ACSR Controller once an aircraft has been modified.
