Czech term or phrase: Resurs (motoru)
Jedná se, pokud tomu správně rozumím, o zbývající životnost motoru v letových hodinách či kilometrech. Potřeboval bych anglický termín. Mockrát díky za tipy.

Explanation:
The most general term is service life. However, the usual one for aircraft engines is TBO - time between overhauls (often interpreted as "time before overhaul", too). The time left before the next overhaul can be designated as "remaining TBO", although the usual way in aviation is to indicate the time since last ovehaul (TSO, or TSOH, or SMOH, or TSMOH, M stands for "major").

Oh, and it's never expressed in kilometers, it's flight hours only. Sometimes, there are additional limitations on years in operation and/or start cycles. For example, on my aircraft it's 2000 flight hours or 12 years, whichever comes earlier.

agree  Pavel STORKAN: Počet motorových (nebo letových, není stejné) hodin do vyššího stupně údržby (generální oprava) nebo do konce životnosti - záleží na tom, o jaký agregát/součást/motor se jedná
1 hr
  -> Ano, a existuji také různé způsoby výpočtu motorových a letových hodin. Díky!
