MIL-HDBK-1530B(USAF)
5.5.2 Individual air vehicle tracking data. The ASIP manager will be responsible for the overall planning and management of the individual air vehicle tracking data gathering effort and will:
a. establish data collection procedures and data transmission channels within the U.S. Air Force;
b. train squadron-, base-, and depot-level personnel as necessary to ensure the acquisition of acceptable quality data;
c. maintain and repair the instrumentation and recording equipment; and
d. ensure the data are obtained and processed in a timely manner to provide adjusted maintenance times for each critical area of each air vehicle.
5.5.3 Individual air vehicle maintenance times. The ASIP manager will be responsible to derive individual maintenance (inspection and repair) times for each critical area of each air vehicle by use of the tracking analysis methods as specified in 5.4.5.1 and the individual air vehicle tracking data as specified in 5.5.2. The objective is to determine adjusted times at which the force structural maintenance actions as specified in 5.4.3 have to be performed on individual air vehicles and each critical area thereof. With the force structural maintenance data and the individual air vehicle maintenance time requirements available, the U.S. Air Force can schedule force structural maintenance actions on a selective basis that accounts for the effect of usage variations on structural maintenance intervals.
5.5.4 Structural maintenance records. The SPO and the Using Command will be responsible to maintain structural maintenance records (inspection, repair, modification, and replacement) for individual air vehicles. These records should contain complete listings of structural maintenance actions which are performed, and should include all pertinent data (Time Compliant Technical Order [TCTO] action, component flight time, component and air vehicle serial number, etc.). The Maintenance Requirements Review Board (MRRB) is one forum used by
Air Force Materiel Command and Using Commands to review selected or summary records on an annual basis.
5.5.5 Weight and balance records. Weight and balance actions that must be conducted by the air vehicle user during operations to ensure the air vehicle remains within its design restrains should be established and provided by the contractor. Guidance may be found in SAWE RP No. 7, T.O. 1-1B-40, and T.O. 1-1B-50.
6. NOTES
6.1 Intended use. This handbook is intended as a general guide to establish and conduct an ASIP. Contractual documents should contain tailored requirements for each program, based on the guidance contained herein.
6.2 Supersession data. This document supersedes MIL-HDBK-1530A(USAF), dated 24 January 2002.
6.3 Data requirements. The long-term operation and maintenance of U.S. Air Force air vehicles and equipment is directly dependent on the availability of certain structural data developed during an ASIP. These databases are used to establish, assess, and support inspections; maintenance activities; repairs; modification tasks; and replacement actions for the life of the airframe. The contract should contain provisions which ensure these data are available to the U.S. Air Force and to relevant contractors and subcontractors throughout the operational life of the system. The following list is provided as a general guide to the necessary data. This list should be tailored
based on system operational requirements, the support concept/strategy, AFPD 63-14, the guidance contained in this document, and the guidance contained in the handbook section of JSSG-2006. To the maximum extent feasible,
this data should remain with the prime contractor, with access as required by government agencies. Data delivery should be kept to the minimum required to accomplish specific organic responsibilities during post-production phases.
