Abstract
Despite being a significant element of Quebecs industrial economy, employing tens of thousands of personnel, very little is known for certain about the state of obsolescence management in Quebecs aerospace industry amongst academic circles. For the last decade, it has been assumed that the same challenges and shortcomings that apply to the American aerospace industry, which are well documented, applied to Quebec as well. With the Consortium for Research and Innovation in Aerospace in Quebec pushing for the adoption of novel technologies such as electrically powered aircraft, a critical point has been reached where the actual weaknesses and strengths of the aerospace industry in this domain must be assessed in order to prepare for the upcoming transitions. While at the time of writing this report, research is still ongoing, certain interesting information points have already been uncovered. Despite previous assumptions that the industry was handling obsolescence on reactive basis, in the gas turbine sector, obsolescence is generally managed strategically as a result of product support obligations. More work is yet to be done in order to fully understand the industry landscape, however, these findings are an encouraging sign that the industry is moving towards more sustainable practices.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
