NAMP Flashcards
Define NAMP and explain its purpose.
Naval Aviation Maintenance Program (NAMP)
It directs maintenance policies, procedures, and responsibilities at all levels of maintenance throughout naval aviation.
What is a Daily Inspection?
An inspection for defects to a greater depth than the turnaround inspection.
How long is a Daily Inspection Valid for?
A maximum of 72 hours from the date/time of completion, provided no maintenance (other than servicing) nor flights occur.
Once a flight occurs, the a/c may make multiple flight within a 24 hour period without performing another Daily Inspection, provided no maintenance (other than servicing) is performed. The 24 hour period begins following the first launch after the completion of the Daily Inspection.
In no case is a Daily Inspection valid for more than 72 hours, unless the 72 hour period occurs while the aircraft is in flight.
When required for cross-country flight, or when aircraft must be operated away from home base without qualified maintenance support for periods not exceeding _____ the _____ may authorize the _____ to conduct applicable T/M/S NATOPS pilot inspection in lieu of a _____, certify _____ requirements are accomplished, and sign the _____ (OPNAV 4790/41) in the _____. In these cases, the _____ must be performed immediately prior to the commencement of the _____.

On a case-by-case basis, Wings and MAGs may authorize an additional 24 hours (96 hours maximum) due to _____.
Operational Necessity
How is the 24 hour Operational Necessity Daily Inspection extension requested?
CO’s must request the authorization in writing (email, letter, memorandum, or naval message) citing the specific BUNO, name/rank of the PIC, and a description of the mission with justification of operational necessity.
How is the Local Flying Area defined in the NAMP?
The area within 350 nm radius of a unit’s home base.
What is the purpose of a Turnaround Inspection?
Detect material degradation that may have occurred during the previous flight.
Verify fluid consumption levels are within limits.
Service the aircraft.
How long is a Turnaround Inspection valid for?
They are valid for 24 hours from the date/time the inspection is completed, provided no maintenance, other than servicing, is performed.
What may be authorized in lieu of a Turnaround Inspection? Who authorizes this?
The CO may authorize an applicable T/M/S pilot inspection in lieu of a turnaround inspection when required for a cross-country flight, or when the aircraft must be operated away from home base without qualified maintenance support for periods exceeding 24 hours.
When is the Turnaround Inspection considered to be expired?
Once the aircraft is weight off wheels.
Explain Special Inspections.
Are scheduled on a prescribed recurring interval other than daily, phase, major engine, or standard depot rework.
Examples of special inspections include: 28 Day, 100 Flight Hours, 50 operational hours, 5,000 rounds fired, etc.
Explain Conditional Inspections.
Required due to an over limit condition, specific usage, or operational event.
Examples of conditional inspections include: hard landing, over stress, over temp, lightning strike, over weight takeoff/landing, etc.
What is required to be contained in a hardcopy ADB?
Only those items required to determine Safe for Flight, or, for which the AADB has no functionality and the item is considered essential information,.
What can be found in a Hardcopy ADB, that will likely not be found in the AADB?
- Oil Consumption
- Power Checks
- Weight & Balance Forms
- T/M/S Peculiar Requirements
Which block on the A-Sheet does a HAC sign and what 3 things are they signing for?
Block 13

Block 4: Oxygen
Block 5: Fuel (Grade/Quality)
Block 6: Oil (Grade/1,2,3,4)
Block 7: Date
Block 8: Ordnance
Block 9: Special Equipment/Limitations/Remarks
Block 10:PC (Name/Rank/Rate/Signiture)
Block 11: QA/SO (Name/Rank/Rate/Signiture)
Block 12: Safe for Flight (Name/Rank/Rate/Signiture)
Block 13: HAC (Name/Rank/Signiture)
What is the NAMP authorized deviation for Calendar Day Inspections?
Plus of minus 3 days may be applied to the interval of inspections, including preservation inspections, that are performed in increments of calendar days.
The next inspection is scheduled as if no deviation had occurred.
What is the NAMP authorized deviation for Hourly/Cycle/Event inspections?
Plus or minus 10% may be applied to the interval of inspections based on flight hours, operating hours, cycles, or events.
Intervals that create fractional deviations will be rounded to the lower value.
The next inspection will be scheduled as if no deviation had occurred.
