The importance of using information about the discovery of fatigue cracks to eliminate any fatigue failure in a fleet of aircraft of the same type and the human factor influence is studied. Numerical estimation of the influence of this information exchange is obtained. The Monte Carlo method was used for modelling the process of inspecting the aircraft fleet and calculating the probability of fatigue failure as a function of the inspection interval, number of aircraft in the fleet, and intensity of the process of bringing new aircraft into operation.
