Linear Regression Model Identifying the Primary Factors Contributing to Maintenance Man Hours for the C-17 Globemaster III in the Air National Guard.

摘要

The purpose of this research was to identify the primary correlating factors contributing to the amount of Maintenance Man Hours expended on maintaining the C-17 Globemaster III aircraft in the Air National Guard. The research question was answered through the use of statistical analysis comprised of multivariate linear regression modeling. A literature review was performed with limited results as, though there is literature available that addresses linear regression modeling and the use of various metrics, there is no documentation that the researcher is aware of specific to the use of linear regression in this specific manner.
