These areas involve the development of complex architectures including the related Computer Control Systems and Fluid Systems. Fuel and Inerting Systems present many technical and business challenges that need to be understood and managed. They operate in a very hostile environment at extremes of temperature and humidity, with the added challenge of intrinsic safety due to the volatile nature of jet fuel. Given that fuel is contained mostly in the wings of modern aircraft; Fuel and Inerting Systems are a significant factor in aircraft weight, cost and reliability.
