1 pint.
Who can inspect fuel samples?
310 CDI, CDQAR, QAR, or qualified aircrew
If contaminants are present, retain sample, and drain approx how much fuel into a bucket or other approved container?
1 gallon.
If after draining a gallon of fuel, a second fuel sample still comes forth contaminated, what must be done?
Notify M/C and QA, Initiate a downing discrepancy. Put results on the fuel sample log sheet.
What must be removed prior to A/C wash?
Smokes, to prevent accidental activation
Can you use CPC for beautification purposes?
No.

If a discrepancy is found on a DTA, what will the "when discovered" code be in NALCOMIS?
Daily : J

Turnaround: K
Besides writing the MAF, where else does the discrepancy get logged?
The daily paperwork (4790/38)
As Plane Captain, who are you directly responsible to?
The CO.
