Abstract:

Reliability concerns of the Cheyenne helicopters multipurpose computer prompted the Ad Hoc group to review studies pertaining to various aspects of it, evaluate its capability to perform functions, and recommend a course of action to assure that the Cheyenne system will have an adequate computer on a schedule. Although not certain, it is possible that the apparent unreliability of the computer resulted from inexperience and unfamiliarity of its initial engineers with this type of equipment.
