ATA · Aircraft Troubleshooting Assistant™
Bring aircraft details, technical manuals and maintenance history into one workflow. ATA helps your team connect the evidence, prepare a troubleshooting guide and organize the record for technical review.

From the first discrepancy to a structured report, follow the workflow in these supplied ATA screenshots. Select any image to view it at full size.
Example application output. Generated guidance, diagrams and certification wording shown in screenshots require technical validation; they do not establish maintenance approval or authorize return to service.
Case walkthrough · Supplied report
The example records an “R REV ISLN VAL” message after takeoff on a 757-200, under ATA Chapter 78.
ATA brings the reported discrepancy, referenced manuals and previous maintenance context into a single draft troubleshooting record. The screenshots show mechanical context, circuit illustrations and a final recording section.
This is a walkthrough of the supplied output. The screenshots do not establish a confirmed root cause, completed repair or measured reduction in downtime.
Associate the reported message with the aircraft, work order and relevant system.
Use the supplied fault isolation, maintenance and wiring references alongside the maintenance history.
Organize the proposed isolation sequence and source references so the engineering team can check applicability and accuracy.
Use the report structure to document work performed, actual findings and authorized review after maintenance.
Practical applications
Three day-to-day scenarios showing how ATA can support your organization.
01 / MRO organizations
The situation: A recurring fault enters the hangar with several manual extracts and an incomplete troubleshooting history.
With ATA: Bring the squawk, aircraft details and references together. Prepare a guide with source citations and use the report structure to capture findings for the next technician and quality reviewer.
A clearer handover, with context and references in one place.
02 / Airlines
The situation: A line station reports a system message while maintenance control reviews the aircraft’s previous defects.
With ATA: Organize the station’s discrepancy and available manual pages into a structured technical brief. Engineering can review the proposed path and share a consistent record with the station.
Better continuity between the line team, maintenance control and engineering.
03 / Aircraft owners
The situation: An owner needs to understand a repeated discrepancy and the evidence behind an MRO’s proposed work.
With ATA: Review a structured summary of the fault, cited documents and recorded findings with the maintenance provider. Use it to identify open questions and follow the work through to the final maintenance record.
A more informed discussion about scope, findings and outstanding work.
Incident fact-finding · Investigative reporting
ATA Aircraft Troubleshooting Assistant™ also generates structured investigative reports from the incident or accident account and supplied evidence. Bring the sequence of events, technical context and potential contributing factors together so stakeholders can review the findings and decide what happens next.
Evidence into understanding
Connect the occurrence narrative with maintenance history, physical observations and available system information. Timeline and system diagrams help explain how the reported events and technical factors relate to one another.
The interface includes section and document views, re-evaluation of findings, saved reports, and PDF, Word and print options—making the report easier to review and share.

Inside the generated report
The supplied six-page example examines a reported aircraft towing and rollback incident. Select any page to inspect the original screenshot.
Illustrative software output supplied by AeroProc. Findings depend on the completeness and quality of the supplied evidence. Proposed causes and actions require qualified investigator and engineering review; generated reports do not establish regulatory approval, official accident findings or airworthiness release.
Safety & investigation teamsReview the timeline, evidence gaps and potential contributing factors before agreeing on further investigation.
Engineering & MRO teamsAssess technical findings against source records and approved data, then define the work and verification needed.
Operators, owners & leadershipUnderstand the reported event, review proposed actions and agree on responsibilities and follow-up.
