• Answer to very reactive queries (sometimes in less than 4 hours) coming in through the In-Service Engineering department in order to limit the time customers’ aircraft are stuck on-ground due to Landing Gear equipment failure. Handle customers requests for Technical Publication updates and/or clarification
