Calibration Frequency: How to Set It, Prove It, and Defend It

In this episode, we dig into one of the most misunderstood parts of any aerospace quality system: calibration frequency. I'm breaking down how to set intervals based on risk, usage, and real performance data — not tribal habits or 'because we've always done it that way.'

You'll learn how to build a defensible calibration strategy, how to use verification checks to extend intervals safely, and how to walk an auditor through your logic with confidence. I'm also sharing real-world examples of what to tighten, what to relax, and the metrics that prove your intervals are fair and justified.

If calibration has ever felt like a compliance box instead of a strategic tool, this episode will change the way you manage your entire gage program.
