equipment (fig. 6-20). The SEATS computer generated Seat Survival Kit record is a single-sided record designed to be filed in the aircraft logbook or the ejection seat AESR in which the SSK is installed. The activity that places the SSK into service should initiate the SSK record. When the SSK is issued to a custodian, the receiving activity should verify the completeness and accuracy of the record, and resolve any discrepancies with the issuing activity prior to acceptance of the SSK. Once an SSK is installed, the SSK record should be forwarded to maintenance control for insertion into the aircraft logbook or ejection seat AESR. When an SSK is transferred, its SSK record should be attached to the equipment and should accompany the SSK to its new destination. Aircrew Systems Record (OPNAV 4790/138) The Aircrew Systems Record, figure 6-21, provides a continuous configuration and inspection history of ALSS components, kits, and assemblies. The SEATS computer-generated Aircrew Systems Record should be filed in the logbook of the aircraft in which the component, kit, or assembly is installed. The Aircrew Systems Record should be initiated by the activity placing the component, kit, or assembly into service. When a new record is initiated, applicable data is transcribed to a new record and verified and the old record is either retained or destroyed in accordance with command directives. Accepting activities should review and verify aircrew systems records for completeness and accuracy. Any discrepancies found by the accepting activity should be resolved with the issuing activity prior to acceptance. When the component, kit, or assembly is installed, the record should be forwarded to maintenance control for insertion into the aircraft logbook. The Aircrew System Record should accompany the component, kit, or assembly whenever these components are sent to an I-level activity for inspection or maintenance and when the component, kit, or assembly is transferred to a new custodian. Aircrew Personal Equipment Record (OPNAV 4790/159) This record, shown in figure 6-22, provides a record of the current configuration of all personal equipment issued to aircrewrnen. Only items of ALSS that require inspection at the O-level of maintenance should be documented on this record. All item of ALSS requiring I-level maintenance should have a separate Aircrew Systems Record. The Aircrew Personal Equipment Record should be initiated by an O-level activity upon initial issue of personal equipment to the aviator or aircrewman. Each aviator or aircrewman should have a separate file containing the Aircrew Personal Equipment Record and separate Air Systems Records as necessary. Maintenance actions performed on an aircrewman’s equipment should be documented on the MAF. The Aircrew Personal Equipment Record must be retained for a minimum of 6 months or one complete inspection cycle, whichever is greater. Q25. Upon installion of a parachute assembly, what is the disposition of the parachute record? AIRCRAFT INVENTORY RECORD LEARNING OBJECTIVES: Define the purpose of the aircraft inventory record. Identify procedures to record equipment shortages when aircraft are transferred or accepted. The aircraft inventory records are part of the com- plete packet of the logs and records maintained on each aircraft. To record aircraft inventory data accurately and properly, you, the AZ, should have a knowledge of their general content and use. Normally, material control work center personnel supervise and coordinate (in conjunction with production division personnel) the inventory of aircraft upon acceptance and transfer. The aircraft inventory record establishes a formal, continuous chain of accountability for specific equipment and material installed on or designated for use on any aircraft of a specified type, model, and series (T/M/S). A Master Aircraft Inventory Record (MAIR) that identifies those items of installed and loose equipment for which a periodic inventory must be accomplished is maintained by NAVAIR. A MAIR is maintained as the standard for each T/M/S aircraft. Aircraft are transferred and accepted only after an equipment and item inventory and notation on the forms of the aircraft inventory record are completed. This inventory record is NOT to be considered a packing list, bill of materials, or configuration list. Selection of items to be included in the inventory record is governed by the following list, without regard to  whether  the  items  are  government-  or contractor-furnished equipment: 6-32
