of the command receiving the report conducts an investigation. Also, QA performs an analysis to provide appropriate recommendations for corrective action. Aviation Gas Free Engineering (AVGFE) The purpose of the AVGFE program is to ensure a safe environment when aeronautical fuel systems are worked on. NAVAIR 01-1A-35 outlines requirements for the AVGFE program. Technicians certified under the AVGFE program must be qualified QARs or CDQARs and have graduated from an approved AVGFE program course. O-level activities normally provide their own AVGFE technicians; however, those activities with less than three gas free engineering (GFE) requirements in a 6-month period may request the services of the supporting I-level AVGFE technician.

What division assists the aviation safety officer in reviewing all correspondence about aircraft, ground, flight, or flight-related mishaps and explosive mishaps? Who has the responsibility to be alert for safety related defects or discrepancies? OPNAVINST 3710.7 contains procedures to report discrepancies in what type of publication? If a system failure or malfunction occurs because of a part design, which could allow improper installation of the part, an HMR priority precedence message must be submitted within what time frame? What term should be used in conjunction with an HMR when an aircraft part is lost in flight? What are the three types of engineering investigations (Els)? What type of report provides activities with a means of reporting deficiencies in new or newly reworked material? How long does the accepting activity have to submit a supplemental ADR? Where is the original misuse/abuse report sent? QUALITY ASSURANCE MONITORING The QA division monitoring includes the continuous collection and distribution to cognizant personnel of all messages, letters, instructions, and other information concerning the programs or processes being monitored. The QA division does not manage any of these programs and processes. However, they are responsible for overall surveillance of these programs and processes to identify problems and to verify compliance. Audits are one of the tools used in monitoring these programs and processes. QA gives continuous attention to program performance. They prepare checklists that describe the specific functions needed to effectively monitor each assigned program and process. These checklists are the same for O- and I-level maintenance with a few exceptions. QA monitors the programs and processes listed below: FOD Fuel surveillance Joint Oil Analysis Program (JOAP) Aviators’ breathing oxygen (ABO) Hydraulic contamination control SE Operator Training/Licensing and SE Planned Maintenance Systems (PMS) SE testing Calibration Nondestructive inspection (NDI) Tool Control Program Corrosion prevention and control Plane captain qualification Tire and Wheel Maintenance Safety Individual Component Repair List (ICRL) Egress system checkout Explosives Handling Personnel Qualification and Certification Program Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Control/ Prevention Program Miniature/microminiature (2M) Laser hazard control 6-20
