Maintenance in the aviation industry has evolved considerably since commercial and general aviation became a modern mode of transportation. ICAO has made maintenance a top priority by directing local National Aviation Authorities, NAA, to have implemented, robust and standardized training and qualifications for all maintenance personnel that work on any safety critical structure or component. There are rules, law and standards that are audited and the aviation industry is, perhaps, the most successful industry in maintaining standards and reliability. With the advent of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, UAV, the role of maintenance is now needing to be reviewed to determine how and what is needed. This research paper reviews the concepts and importance of maintenance in this new and expanding industry and the complexity of having international standards for engineers to support continuous airworthiness.

The Riemann Zeta Function is an essential special function in analytical number theory; its connection to the distribution of prime numbers was the motivation to expand its domain from real numbers to complex numbers3,4. The importance of the Riemann Zeta Function is not only due to its crucial applications but furthermore due to the Riemann Hypothesis that remains unsolved till now. In this article basic properties are discussed and some important functional relationships are investigated.

The wings of the aircraft reflect an aircraft's primary lift unit. The aerodynamic strain, weather, wind and vibration are the liability of the aircraft's wing throughout the ride. Aeronautical and structural stresses may often be handled by aircraft wings. Therefore, aircraft wings must be constructed to have good overall efficiency throughout each period of operation, both structurally and aerodynamically. Spar, ribs, thongs and skin are the main structural elements of a wing construction. It is a fluttering experiment regarding the wing and re-designing of zodiac aircraft. The method was identified in the literature survey to decide the current wing design parameters. Main objective of this project is to makes a stable aircraft wing which can overcome all flutter related problems in the design limit region. We always tried to keep the weight margin in same limit. To achieve weight in same limit we are trying with various cross section stringers and it is placing at various regions, instead of increasing thickness directly.
