EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE MANAGE- MENT—The process of developing workload requirements, forecasting and planning, organiz- ing, staffing, directing, and controlling the engineering, industrial, and other resources necessary to effectively and economically support the equipment operation objectives of the Navy. ETR—Engine Transaction Report. EXC CODE—Exception Code—Used on the NAVFLIR for entries that require processing for other than routine flights.

EXPERIMENTAL AIRCRAFT—Aircraft acquired by the Navy solely for use in research and development. EXPLOSIVE ORDNANCE—Complete air-launched weapon system(s) and components, except torpedoes and mines. Torpedoes and mines, supported by the COMNAVSEASYSCOM, are in some cases adapted to aircraft delivery. The COMNAVAIRSYSCOM is responsible for the modification and equipment necessary to carry these weapons in aircraft. EXREP—Expeditious Repair—The processing for repair of NIS or NC components (repairable or consumable). These components must be in support of, or related to, an NMCS or PMCS situation.

It includes compressor rotor replacement and disassembly to a degree that the compressor rotor is removed. Any degree of repair which requires compressor rotor removal constitutes first-degree repair. Only those activities specifically designated as first-degree repair activities and included in NAVAIR NOTE 4700 AI-9
