    Analysis of smart solutions in the field of airport maintenance within international airports
    (University of Zilina, 2022) Krajcer, Marek; Kováčiková, Kristína
    The paper deals with the analysis of various smart solutions that can be implemented in airport maintenance. The aim of this paper is to compare the current situation in Slovakia with smart solutions that have been used in the world and to suggest which of the solutions could be implemented in Slovakia. The theoretical part describes the purpose of smart airports and conventional methods of airport maintenance. The next part of the paper is devoted to the description of the current state at the airport in Bratislava and a description of smart solutions used around the world. These may include: scaring birds with drones, snow removal with autonomous ploughs, mowing lawns with robotic mowers, inspection of the Instrumental Landing System ILS with drones and inspection of the Precision Approach Path Indicator PAPI with drones. The last part of the paper compares conventional maintenance methods used at the airport in Bratislava with their smart solutions used around the world. The evaluation includes a proposal for smart solutions which could effectively be used at Bratislava Airport.

    Zmeny a doplnenia EASA časť 145 a ich vplyv na CAMO
    (University of Žilina, 2024) Krajcer, Marek; Urminský, Tomáš
    EASA Part 145, a framework that governs the approval and operation of maintenance organisations, is one of the key elements in the regulatory environment targeting the technical condition of aircraft. Changes and amendments to EASA Part 145, which followed the adoption of Commission Regulation (EU) No. 1321/2014, also affect Continuing Airworthiness Management Organizations (CAMO). This paper examines how these changes of integration are reflected in the actual operation of CAMO helping to understand the degree of interconnection between the aircraft maintenance field and the management of continuing airworthiness. The introductory chapters provide a theoretical overview of the regulations, focusing on EASA Parts 145, M, and CAMO. Based on this theoretical framework, the study presents an in-depth analysis of recent changes and amendments to EASA Part 145, identifying their impact on CAMO operations. The enrichment of the data stems from a survey distributed among experts in practice, capturing insights and firsthand experience. This survey, a central part of the paper, explores their views on the consequences of implementing changes and the challenges they face.
