45. When an aircraft is broken and the status changes from FMC to NMC, what concept of reporting is this called?

Explanation

When an aircraft is broken and its status changes from FMC (Fully Mission Capable) to NMC (Not Mission Capable), it is considered an exception reporting. Exception reporting is a concept of reporting that focuses on reporting any deviations or exceptions from the normal or expected status. In this case, the change in status from FMC to NMC is an exception because it indicates that the aircraft is no longer in a fully operational state.

Submit
46. When an aircraft is broken and the status changes from FMC to NMC, what concept of reporting is this called?

Explanation

When an aircraft is broken and the status changes from FMC (Fully Mission Capable) to NMC (Not Mission Capable), it is considered an exception reporting. Exception reporting is a concept in which any deviation or exception from the normal or expected condition is reported. In this case, the change in status from FMC to NMC indicates a deviation from the normal operational condition of the aircraft, and therefore falls under exception reporting.
