NAVAL SAFETY CENTER
AVIATION MAINTENANCE CHECKLIST
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of any safety survey is to detect hazards. These hazards
can exist in a variety of areas: management, administration, training, and
material. In all cases, the hazards make a command more prone to losing
people or damaging equipment. Uncorrected hazards decrease a command's
readiness.
This checklist provides guidelines during the performance of a safety
survey, whether the Naval Safety Center team or local personnel from
squadrons, or other activities conduct the survey. This checklist does not
supersede existing directives.
The formal checklist consists of six volumes:
Volume I
OPERATIONS
Volume II
FACILITIES-AIR STATION
Volume III
FACILITIES-SHIPBOARD
Volume IV
AEROMEDICAL
Volume V
ORGANIZATIONAL LEVEL MAINTENANCE
Volume VI
INTERMEDIATE LEVEL MAINTENANCE
Volume VII
NAVY/MARINE FLYING CLUBS
Volume VIII
DEPOT LEVEL MAINTENANCE
Any portion may be reproduced locally. Although references are
included, certain questions appear with no references. These questions
have proven to be valid indicators of the effectiveness of command safety
programs. Additionally, some items within the checklist are general. They
are leading questions, which should guide a more detailed investigation of
suspected problem areas.
