Study Notes
Tool Control Program (TCP)
- Aims to eliminate foreign object damage (FOD) to aircraft and equipment by preventing misplaced tools.
FOD Program Responsibilities
- Maintenance personnel must document and control tools while actively correcting FOD hazards.
Beyond Capable Maintenance (BCM)
- Refers to maintenance actions that extend beyond standard capabilities.
Naval Aviation Metrology and Calibration (METCAL)
- A program ensuring proper calibration of measurement and testing equipment.
Individual Material Readiness List (IMRL)
- Ensures required Support Equipment (SE) is available for maintenance activities.
Individual Component Repair List (ICRL)
- Specifies repair capabilities and procedures for individual components.
CDI's Role in Safety Program
- Responsible for ensuring the safety of both personnel and equipment.
MRCs and MIMs in CDI/QA Inspections
- Management of maintenance requirements and instructions ensures compliance during inspections.
Hazardous Material Report (HMR)
- Must be submitted within 24 hours for material deficiencies posing risks to personnel or equipment.
Engineering Investigation Procedures (EI)
- HMR and Product Quality Deficiency Reports (PQDR) are processed under these protocols.
Technical Publication Deficiency Reports (TPDR)
- Classified into categories based on safety impact and maintenance delays:
- CAT 1: Safety-related deficiencies; report within 24 hours.
- CAT 2: Non-safety deficiencies causing delays of 8 hours or more.
- CAT 3: Non-safety deficiencies causing delays of less than 8 hours.
- CAT 4: Non-technical deficiencies with no maintenance delay.
Product Quality Deficiency Reports (PQDR)
- Similar to TPDR, categorized to assess risk to safety and operational readiness:
- CAT 1: Safety-related reports with 24-hour urgency.
- CAT 2: Non-safety but widespread quality risks, documented within 5 calendar days.
Quality Maintenance Responsibility
- Ensures proper use of procedures and gear maintenance to prevent damage during operations.
Naval Aviation Maintenance Discrepancy Reporting Program (NAMDRP)
- Establishes guidelines for reporting material deficiencies and procedural issues in technical publications.
Inspections in Maintenance Processes
- Final inspections assess task completion via visual checks.
- In-process inspections occur during maintenance to evaluate ongoing tasks.
- Receiving/screening processes verify the condition and records of materials received.
Concept of Quality Assurance (QA)
- Focuses on defect prevention in all stages of the maintenance process.
Support Equipment (SE)
- Encompasses all devices needed to operate aeronautical systems in their intended environments.
QA Programs Managed by AIMD Bahrain
- Include audits, NAMDRP, technical directive management, safety, and confined space operations.
4790 Document Overview
- Chapter 1: Introduction and terminology.
- Chapter 7: Quality assurance protocols.
- Chapter 10: NAMP standard procedures.
- Appendix A: Acronyms and definitions.
Y Codes
- Used when an NRFI product is returned from I-level, indicating a defect found upon receipt.
Documenting Y Codes
- The Y-Code Process Form tracks investigations related to these defects.
Record Retention
- Completed documentation forms are maintained for a period of one year.
Technical Directives (TD) Categories
- Immediate Action: Critical safety issues with imminent threat.
- Urgent Action: Conditions needing timely correction to prevent hazards.
- Routine Purpose: Non-critical changes requiring future implementation.
- Record Purpose: Documentation of changes that have been applied before official issue.
NAT02
- Provides SE technical directive listings categorized by Type Equipment Code for screening purposes.
Sections of the 51 Record
- Includes custody records, rework documentation, preservation records, technical directives, NDI records, and miscellaneous history.
Broad Arrow Message
- Alerts when an item of SE is partially or mission-capable, impacting the mission readiness of supported activities.
SM&R Codes
- Indicate Source, Maintenance, and Recoverability, located in the Illustrated Parts Breakdown (IPB) and Maintenance Instruction Manual (MIM).
Status Codes
- A1: Serviceable
- F1: Unserviceable
- A2: Serviceable but requires calibration
- A4: Preserved or needs calibration.
Individual Material Readiness List (IMRL) Reiterated
- Ensures the availability of required SE for operational readiness.
