QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
An informal word for personnel requirements that have not been verified by
higher headquarters but are considered critical to the mission by the
organization. leadership. - ANSWER: What does the word "out-of-hide" mean?
What do Air Force Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (AFTTP) stand for?
Maintenance Concept: Depot-level Maintenance - Which maintenance concept
includes "maintenance requiring the overhaul, upgrading, or rebuilding of parts,
assemblies, or subassemblies, and the testing and reclamation of equipment as
necessary."? (AFI 21-101) 1.3
MAJCOMs - Response: "assigned combat coded fighter aircraft will coordinate
with Mission Design Series (MDS) lead and using commands and the
MAJCOM Operations Directorate (MAJCOM/A3) to develop and document
standardized MDS and Primary Aerospace Vehicle (Aircraft) Authorized (PAA)
specific utilization rate standards in their supplements to this instruction." 21-
101 1.3:
ANSWER: What flammable vapors occur on the surface of JP-4 at -10 degrees
Fahrenheit and above, and aviation gasoline at -50 degrees Fahrenheit and
above?
Combat power - ANSWER: A trained maintenance unit is essential for a
successful, what?
Aircraft Weight Principles: ANSWER 1. Basic Weight
2. Operating Weight
,3. Zero fuel weight.
4. Ramp Weight
5. Takeoff Gross Weight
T.O. 1-1B-50 Weight and Balance - ANSWER Which TO gives information
and instructions for maintaining the charts and forms (DD Form 365 series or
electronic equivalent) that allow for the continuous recording and control of
aircraft weight and balance.
Weight Limits - ANSWER Which phrase combines performance, control, and
structural constraints. Exceeding these limits may result in loss of acft and is
expressly prohibited.
Aircraft Weight - ANSWER Which phrase refers to the combination of actual
weighing, accurate record keeping, and the application of aircraft-specific
manuals, charts, forms, and loading instructions?
Century of Gravity (CG) - ANSWER The word refers to the most forward and
aft permissible CG locations, which are known as forward and aft CG limits,
respectively.
Balance is a stable condition in which all weights and forces work in such a way
that rotation is prevented.
The word "balance arm" refers to the concentration of a number of weights to
achieve the same impact as when they were separated.
,Simplified Moment - ANSWER A moment divided by a known constant, such
as 10, 100, 1000, 10,000, or 100,000.
Arm - ANSWER The distance between an item's center of gravity and a
reference datum.
Moment - ANSWER A measurement of an object's inclination to rotate in
response to a force applied at a specific place on the object. In acft weight and
balance, this word refers to an item's weight (force) multiplied by its balance
arm.
Load Adjuster Index - ANSWER A number that reflects moment on the acft
load adjuster and, when combined with the acft weight or index formula, allows
CG calculations.
DD Form 365 - Record of Weight and Balance Personnel. A continuous record
of weight and balance personnel accountable for the accuracy and upkeep of an
aircraft's weight and balance handbook.
DD Form 365-1, Chart A: Answer Basic Weight Checklist Record.
The first step is to define what's included in
Basic weight for a certain aircraft. The second step is to
Provide weight and balance statistics for items that could
eliminated or added to the aircraft's basic weight.
DD Form 365-2, Form B: ANSWER Aircraft Weighing Record.
, Form B is used to record the data collected during an actual aircraft weighing.
This form also includes instructions for calculating the aircraft's current weight,
moment, and center of gravity (CG).
DD Form 365-3, Chart C: Answer Basic Weight and Balance Record.
A continuous and permanent record of the aircraft's Basic Weight, Moment, and
CG. The last line of the Chart C (aircraft Basic Weight, Moment, and CG) is the
most recent data and the baseline for all subsequent loading calculations on
Forms. Any necessary changes to the aircraft Basic Weight and/or Moment
must be documented on the Chart C.
Acft Weighing Requirements - ANSWER A) As required by applicable service
or technical directives.
B) In accordance with the weight requirements provided in the applicable acft
loading handbook, operator manual, or Chart E.
C) Upon completion of specific depot-level events as defined by the appropriate
Service Engineering Organization.
TO 1-1B-50 Chapters, ANSWER 1) Introduction
2) Airplane Weight and Balance Principles
3) Weight and Balance System.
4) Instructions for Using Weight and Balance Charts and Forms
TO 00-20-1 Aerospace Equipment Maintenance Inspection, Documentation,
rules, and Procedures - This ANSWER Technical Order (TO) specifies the rules
and procedures for using 00-20-series TOs, as well as guidance on weapon
