US
MAINTENANCE WICH IS PERFORMED BY AN OPERATING UNIT ON A DAY-TO-DAY BASIS IN SUPPORT OF ITS OWN OPERATIONS |
|
I-LEVEL
|
MAINTENANCE MISSION IS TO ENHANCE AND SUSTAIN THE COMBAT READINESS AND MISSION CAPABILITY OF SUPPORTED ACTIVITIES BY QUALITY AND TIMELY MATERIAL SUPPORT AT THE NEAREST LOCATION WITH THE LOWEST PRACTICAL RESOURCE EXPENDITURE
|

Turnaround
|
-conducted between flights to ensure the integrity of the aircraft for flight, verifies proper servicing, detects degradation that may have occurred during the previous flight
-good for 24hrs, provided that no flight occurs during this period and no maintenance other than servicing was performed |
|
Daily
|
conducted to inspect for defects to a greater depththan the turnaround inspection
