Maintenance Test Flight Check Sheet.
The
Check Sheet contained in Section V will be used for all test
flights. When a test flight is performed to determine if
specific equipment or systems are operating properly,
completion of only that portion of the maintenance test
flight Check Sheet applicable to the specific equipment or
systems being tested is required. The aircraft test flight
Check Sheets may be locally reproduced. A check (p) for
satisfactory performance or an (X) for problem detected
will be recorded and a short statement entered in the
remarks block of the Check Sheet. Continuation sheets
may be used when necessary. Items that prove to be
unsatisfactory during the test flight, and require corrective
action, shall be listed in the remarks block during flight and
transferred to DA Form 2408-13-1 immediately after
termination of the flight. The MP will sign, enter the time,
and date the checksheet. The sheet will be attached to DA
Form 2408-13-1 upon completion of the MTF. After
accumulation of two or more sheets, the data should be
reviewed to determine if trends are developing.

required by the Operators Manual. These items are
annotated immediately preceding the check to which they
are pertinent: F for flight engineer, and O to indicate a
requirement if the equipment is installed, B for task or step
required by the Operators Manual and *B through flight
