the interim rapid action change [IRAC] number and
manual affected) should be logged in the Remarks or
Local Use column.
A single-line entry is required for each installed
explosive device. All data columns must be completed.
For nonserialized devices and devices that do not
require a container open date, you should enter NA in
the appropriate columns.
When explosive devices are installed in major
assemblies or equipment (such as ejection seats and
in-flight refueling stores), entries are made in the
Installed Explosive Device Record of the appropriate
AESR. When explosive devices are installed in
personnel parachutes, entries are made on the
Parachute Record. Explosive devices installed in other
safety and survival equipment are recorded on the Seat
Survival Kit (SSK) Record or Aircrew Systems
Record. The installation of all other explosive devices
is recorded on the Installed Explosive Devices Record
of the aircraft logbook.
The possibility of transferring certain equipments
from one aircraft to another during inspections, rework,
periods of periodic maintenance, etc., emphasizes the
need for careful and periodic checking of the Installed
Explosive Device Record regarding the status of the
explosive devices currently installed in the aircraft.
The Installed Explosive Device Record is
maintained in a current status by all activities that have
custody of and perform rework on aircraft in which
explosive devices are installed. During SDLM, the
rework activity transcribes all current information to a
new form and discards the old form.
Q21. When the Installed Explosive Device Record is
documented, what specific entry should be
entered in the Serial Number block for
nonserialized devices?
INVENTORY RECORD (OPNAV 4790/27A)
The Inventory Record form, shown in figure 6-12,
is used to maintain a current inventory of all
components or assemblies that require ASRs, EHR
cards, SRC cards, and MSRs. Mission configuration
items, such as bomb racks or searchlights, are not
required to be entered on this record.
It is impractical to include a specific list of such
components since requirements vary according to the
aircraft model. However, all airframe components/
assemblies that require an ASR, an EHR, an SRC card,
or items that require an MSR should be recorded on this
record. Sound maintenance practices and flight safety
considerations dictate the items, other than mandatory,
that should be recorded on this form.
Aircraft engines, propellers, auxiliary power units,
ejection seats, and other major assemblies that require
an AESR are NOT listed on this or any other form in the
aircraft logbook. Remember, components, assemblies,
or modules associated with equipment that require an
AESR are to be recorded in the applicable section of
AESRs and not with airframe components in the
aircraft logbook.
NOTE: AESR, SRC card, EHR, ASR, MSR,
Parachute Record, Seat Survival Kit Record, Aircrew
Systems Records, and Aircrew Personal Equipment
Record items are inventoried during each phase
inspection for the applicable equipment that is being
inspected. A locally prepared form that lists items that
require an ASR, MSR, EHR card, or SRC card should
be used. This form should consist of a preprinted item
list with a column to record item serial numbers. The
items in the list should match the record of installed
items in the aircraft.
ASSEMBLY SERVICE RECORD (ASR)
(OPNAV 4790/106A)
The Assembly Service Record (ASR) (figs. 6-13
and 6-14) provides data tracking on assemblies and
subassemblies that have rework or overhaul life limits
and are designated to be removed at organizational-,
intermediate-, or depot-level maintenance activities
and discarded.
The loss of an ASR can cause the loss of the
assembly to the supply system; therefore, you must be
able to reconstruct the assemblys history to determine
a course of action if the ASR is not available. The
Aeronautical Time Cycle Management Control
Repository at COMNAVAIRSYSCOM determines
what action is needed if an ASR is lost. To enable the
repository to accomplish this task, the repository must
receive misplaced and canceled ASRs, copies of all
updated records after rework, and copies of all new
ASRs generated for new ASR items. A description of
the ASR follows.
The top section of the ASR is used to identify the
assembly by nomenclature and to record the
assemblys replacement due, replacement interval, and
time remaining information.
Replacement due indicates the number of hours or
counts on the equipment or aircraft at which time the
