FALSE, they do
(NAMP 5.1.6.2) How many steps are associated with personnel certifying Safe for Flight prior to release the aircraft for flight? What are they?
6 RF-RBW-H
(1) Review the aircraft discrepancy book (ADB) to verify all discrepancies are accurately EOC coded per the Mission-Essential Subsystem Matrix (MESM),
(a) all downing discrepancies and flight safety Quality Assurance (QA) inspections are signed off,
(b) and a valid daily/turnaround inspection is completed.
(2) Verify fuel samples have been taken and inspected per T/M/S maintenance technical manuals. Specific intervals for fuel samples are listed in the applicable aircraft maintenance requirement cards (MRC). Unless otherwise specified in aircraft MRCs, fuel samples must be taken within 24 hours preceding the aircraft’s initial launch and are valid for no more than 24 hours.
(3) Review Engine/Gearbox Oil Consumption Records and verify each engine or gearbox consumption is within the limit specified in the maintenance technical manuals prior to every flight (as required).
(4) Review BUNO trending and analysis data per paragraph 3.2.3.7 and verify required action was taken per Chapter 3 and T/M/S maintenance technical manuals prior to certifying the aircraft Safe for Flight.
(5) Verify aircraft Weight & Balance (W&B) forms have been updated for each flight.
(6) During hot seating operations, review any new discrepancies with the debarking pilot to verify no flight safety discrepancies were noted, and have the debarking pilot sign block 10 of the Aircraft Inspection and Acceptance Record (OPNAV 4790/141) (Figure 5-1) to certify the aircraft is Safe for Flight
(NAMP 5.1.6.3)What is the A-Sheets actual name?
Aircraft Inspection and Acceptance Record
OPNAV 4790/141
(NAMP) What signature goes in block 9 of the A-Sheet?
SIGNATURE OF PLANE CAPTAIN. Signature and rank or rate of the plane captain who inspected the aircraft.
(NAMP) What signature goes in block 10?
SIGNATURE. Signature and rank or rate of the person certifying the aircraft Safe for Flight. If the aircraft is away from home and qualified releasing authority is not available, the pilot-incommand must sign the certification in the Safe for Flight block. The debarking pilot of a hot seating crew must sign block 10 to certify the aircraft is safe for flight.
(NAMP) What signature goes in block 11?
SIGNATURE OF PILOT IN COMMAND. Signature and rank of pilot accepting the aircraft.
You’ve reviewed the last 10 A-sheets; W&B has been filed; Acceptance of the aircraft.
(NAMP) Are turnaround inspections required for Hot-Seat evolutions?
No “ Turnaround inspections are not required for aircraft participating in hot seating evolutions. “
The hot seat must occur and the aircraft immediately relaunched without shutting down. The off-going pilot must sign block 10 of the A sheet and “Hot Seat” is entered into block 8.
(NAMP) Are FCFs required after PHASE inspection?
No, “FCFs are not required upon the completion of phase inspections unless the corrective action(s) resulting from a discrepancy discovered during the inspection requires it or the item inspection requires a removal, disassembly, adjustment, alignment, reinstallation, or reassembly of any of those items in the following paragraphs. The MRCs will indicate the phase packages requiring a partial system FCF. “
(NAMP) What does the phase maintenance concept look to accomplish?
It “divides major inspection and maintenance requirements into ordered segments performed sequentially at specified flight-hours or calendar intervals”
(NAMP 5.3.10.1a) What is the +/- for inspection that are performed in increments of calendar days?
+/- 3 Days
(NAMP) What is the +/- for inspections that are performed in increments of hours?
+/- 10 percent
(NAMP) Can you exceed the +/- 3 days/10% for inspections at any point?
A one-time deviation in excess of the high (+) limits described per paragraph 5.1.1.6b may be granted due to operational necessity or aircraft ferry schedule only. Reporting custodians must submit the deviation request to the cognizant Wing, COMFAIR, CVW, or Aviation Combat Element (ACE) commander
(NAMP) What is a DAILY inspection?
A Daily inspection is conducted to inspect for defects to a greater depth than the turnaround inspection.
The daily inspection is valid for a period of 72 hours commencing from the date and time the inspection is completed, provided no flight occurs during this period and no maintenance other than servicing has been performed.
Aircraft may be flown for 24 hours without another daily. The 24 hour period begins with the first launch following accomplishment fo the daily inspection
Can the CO grant pilots autorization to sign off on daily? Wing and MAG CO grant extension?
Yes when a/c operated away from local area without qualified maintenance. Yes authorize up to an additional 24 hours for a max of 96hrs due to operational necessity.
(NAMP) What is a TURNAROUND Inspection?
This inspection is conducted between flights and after the completion of the Daily. Conducted to detect material degradation that may have oocured on previous flight, verify fluid levels, and service the aircraft.
(NAMP) Does the accomplishment of the Turnaround affect 72 hour validity of the the Daily Inspections?
No
How long is a Turnaround good for?
-The turnaround inspection is valid for a period of 24 hours commencing from the date and time the inspection is completed, provided no flight and no maintenance other than servicing occurs during this period.
(NAMP) Does the accomplishment of the daily satisfy the turnaround inspection requirements?
No
(NAMP) What are special inspections? Based on what?
Special inspections are scheduled inspections with a prescribed interval other than daily, phase, major engine, or standard depot rework. Based on elapsed calendar time, flight hours, or number of events or cycles
(NAMP) What can Special Inspections intervals be based off of?
Calendar days: 7 day, 28 day
hours: 50, 100, 150 hours
conditions: 5000 rounds
(NAMP) What provides a schedule control of the predictable maintenance workload (for example, inspections, transfer or receipt of aircraft and compliance with TDs?) who is responsible for publishing it?
the Monthly Maintenance Plan; The MMCO is responsible for producing it
What is a conditional inspection?
Inspection required due to an over limit condition, specific usage, or operational event.; Over-temp= limit conditional & post fire gun inspection = specific usage
If a conditional inspection is required because of exceedance of a limit or because of specific usage can you continue to fly?
Yes, but down until the inspection and related maintenance is completed.
Ie you can continue to fly and hotseat the aircraft. However once the conditinal is cut the aircraft is down therefore the hotseat crew should write it.

(NAMP 5.3.5.2d) What are the cross country rules
- COs may authorize pilots-in-command to conduct applicable T/M/S NATOPS pilot inspections, ensure servicing requirements are accomplished, and sign the Aircraft Inspection and Acceptance Record (OPNAV 4790/141) (Figure 5-1) in the certification block while operating away from home without qualified maintenance personnel for periods not exceeding 72 hours. In these cases, the daily inspection must be completed immediately prior to the commencement of the mission. The expiration of the 72 hours may occur during the return flight to home base (or to a site with maintenance support), per NOTE 2 of Figure 5-4. On a case-by-case basis, Wings and MAGs may authorize an additional 24 hours (maximum of 96 hours), due to operational necessity. COs must request the authorization in writing letter
(NAMP) What is the Daily Inspection looking for
This inspection is conducted to inspect for defects to a greater depth than the turnaround inspection
CDI vs. CDQAR
CDI: Collateral Duty Inspector
E-4
Works in the shops and performs in rate duties. Inspects most work but not safety of flight or dynamic components
CDQAR: Colateral Duty QA Rep “CDQ”
E-5
Works in production work center but will complete QA inspections when called upon.
Safety of flight checks/dynamic components
Daily Inspection
Who long is it good for?
Cross country rules?
Daily: Valid for 72 hours from completion, provided no flight or maintenance occurs other than servicing.
A/C may be flown for 24 hrs without another daily. Begins with first launch.
Those 24 Hours cannot exceed the 72 hour inspection unless it occurs during a mission
CO’s may authorize PICs to conduct NATOPS qualified pilot inspection, ensuring servicing requirements are accomplished and sign A-sheet while operating away from home without qualified maintenance personnel for periods not to exceed 72 hours.
Turnaround Inspection
Conducted between flights to ensure the integrity of the aircraft for flight verifying proper servicing, and to detect degradations that may have occurred during the previous flight.
Not required between repetitive flight evolutions with ground periods (Pax/cargo stops, hotseating/refueling, or short interruptions of flight for FCF adjustments)
Valid for 24 hours commencing from completion of inspection.
Only portions affected by maintenance/servicing need to be completed again.
Depot Level Maintenance
Done on material requiring major rework or a complete rebuild of parts, assemblies, and end items. Includes manufacture, modification, testing, and reclamation of parts as required. Depot level serves to support lower levels of maintenance by providing technical assistance and performing maintenance beyond the responsibility of O and I level maintenance. More sensitive facilities for repair than lower maintenance (think PMI).
Intermediate Level Maintenance
Maintenance that is for direct support of the using organizations. It’s phases normally consist of calibration repair or replacement of damaged or unservicable parts, components, and assemblies.
Organizational Level Maintenance
Responsibility of and performed by a using organization on its assigned equipment. It’s phases normally consist of inspecting, servicing, lubricating, adjusting, and replacing parts, minor assemblies and sub assemblies.
MESM EOC Codes

ATRO FODO SSP
Special Inspections
A scheduled inspection with a prescribed interval other than daily or phase. The intervals are based on calendar times, flight hours, operating hours, or number of cycles/events. Ex: 7 day, 28 day, 60 hr, 5000 rounds, 10,000 landings.
Conditional Inspections
Are unscheduled events required as the result of a specific over limit condition, or as a result of circumstances or events which create an administrative requirement for an inspection. Ex: Hard landing, overspeed, P-TERF, P-FLR, etc.
Phase inspections
Divides the total scheduled maintenance of into small packages or phases of approximately the same work content. These are done sequentially at specific intervals. Completion of all required phases at their specific intervals completes the phase inspection cycle.
Zonal Inspection
General Inspection of a specific area of an a/c. Looking for leaks, cracks, corrosion, etc.
Logging and inspections
You can always do inspections early, but never late. You can log heavy to get an a/c into an inspection window, but logging less than what you flew is illegal. It can and will result in an aircraft needing an inspection but no one being aware since the logbook is inaccurate.
Grace periods for inspections
Based on calendar days: +/- 3 days
Based on hours, cycles, or events: +/- 10% rounded down
1 time deviations must be requested from the wing.
If an inspection is done earlier than the window, the inspection is rebased.
How long is a Form F good for?
180 days.
Form F=weight and balance
Located in Hard ADB and with the MMCO.
What is the IETMs computer called?
PEMA: Portable electronic maintenance aid
Phases (need to check this)
A-200 hours
B-400 hours
C-600 hours
D-800 hours
What do the signatures on the A-sheet mean?
PC: DTA is complete. Personally inspected. Second signature for ATAF and fuel sample.
SFF: Certification of SFF condition by personnel authorized by the Commanding Officer to release aircraft SFF
Pilot Acceptance: Reviewed last 10 A-sheets, weight and balance has been filed, acceptance of the aircraft
