LESSON 4
CONDUCT QUALITY ASSURANCE
OVERVIEW
In the event that a certain product does not meet specified requirements and the laboratory tests results have not
been properly evaluated, it is quite possible that the continued use of that product is in question. This may result
in the failure of an important mission with resulting loss of life and loss or damage of equipment. A jet fuel which
does not meet the applicable requirements may result in an engine flameout causing the aircraft to crash and
possibly causing the death of the pilot or other crewmembers. An off-specification lubricating oil may, by
continued use, cause severe damage to ground equipment thus rendering it inoperative and result in mission
failure. Failure to identify product contamination or deterioration can cause the loss of life and the failure of a
mission.
Lesson Description:
During this block of instruction we will discuss recommending the disposition of off-specification petroleum
products that meet deterioration limits.
