Description

Welcome to another episode of Vertical MRO Tech Talk presented by Bell.

In this special episode of Bell Tech Talk, Mark Dube and Tim Doucet sit down with our host Jon Gray to explore the critical role of health and usage monitoring systems (HUMS) in a growing number of Bell helicopters. From their early development to today’s miniaturized, data-driven technology, HUMS have evolved into a cornerstone of helicopter safety and maintenance.

Our conversation highlights how predictive maintenance, powered by HUMS, helps operators prevent potential failures, improve efficiency, and enhance overall safety. Mark and Tim share real-world success stories, discuss the impact of regulatory changes, and explain why data quality is essential to getting the most from these systems.

Whether you’re an operator considering HUMS implementation or simply curious about how technology is reshaping aviation safety, this episode offers insights into why HUMS are not just about maintenance—they’re about protecting lives.
