Fantastic write up. It's mind blowing how much complexity there is to keep flights going day in and day out.

My guess is all airline NOCs operate 24/7 as flights happen around the clock. Also planes typically don't have much downtime as that loses money so everything has to be a continuous operation.

Cool looking at the pictures of the dashboards. It's nutty to think how much has to be tracked when doing airplane maintenance.
