systems equipment, rockets and electronic systems\). Some systems may require an inspection requirements manual only, or work cards only. For other systems a combination of both inspection manual and work cards may be more suitable. This specification provides for electronic delivery of data through the use of the Document Type Definitions \(DTD\) listed in Appendixes A through F. \(Appendix E has been deleted.\)

MIL-DTL-5096G

Electronic Presentation: The data shall be presented in a scrollable view by "cards". Data shall

be formatted in single column format.

3.5 Work cards and checklists, general.

3.5.1 System series designation. Print Presentation: When the work card/checklist covers more than

one system series and it is necessary to identify the series to which each page applies, the system

designator for which the work card/checklist applies shall be placed at the upper binding edge of

each page, i.e., F-16C/F-16D.

Electronic Presentation: The system designator (i.e., F-16C/F-16D) for which the work card/checklist

applies shall be placed in the header (see 3.6.2).

3.5.2 Work card/checklist foreword. The foreword shall begin with the following standard paragraph:

"This (work card/checklist) is a step-by-step guide in abbreviated form for use as a reference to ensure

accomplishment of selected tasks by a predetermined sequence procedure. The intent of this (work

card/checklist) is to eliminate the probability of omission of a step in the accomplishment of the intended

task. The procedures contained herein are presented in the shortest practical form for use by qualiied

personnel and are not intended to provide full technical instructions. This (work card/checklist) provides, in

an abbreviated form, procedures for (appropriate tasks, inspections, etc.). These procedures are derived from,

but do not replace, the detailed procedures contained in Technical Orders (TO). When malfunctions occur

reference to the TO shall be made."

Electronic Presentation: References shall be linked to the data that it applies.

3.5.3 Preliminary instructions. The preliminary instructions shall precede the work card/checklist task and

shall contain information pertinent to accomplishment of the task, such as applicable technical manuals,

mechanic or Air Force Specialty Code (AFSC) types required, and special tools or equipment required.

3.5.4 Nomenclature. First use of a nomenclature used in a work card/checklist shall be identical with the

nomenclature used in any manual to which the work card/checklist applies. Further use of a nomenclature in

a work card/checklist may be abbreviated. Abbreviations shall be in accordance with MIL-STD-38784.

3.6 Work cards.

3.6.1 Work card requirements. Separate and distinct work card sets, as they apply to the breakout of the

inspection requirements chapters of the -6 inspection manual; e.g., system(s) or end item(s) of equipment,

etc., shall be prepared for each type of inspection; i.e., Prelight/Preoperation, Basic Postlight/Postoperation,

Hourly Postlight/Postoperation, Periodic/Phased/Isochronal, etc. When speciied by the acquiring activity, the

prelight/preoperation shall be combined with the basic postlight/postoperation (equipment using the periodic

or phased concept) or the thrulight (equipment using the isochronal concept) into one set of work cards

(see 6.2t.). Work cards shall be prepared for supplemental periodic inspection requirements which become

due in multiples of the particular periodic (see Figure 15). If no inspection requirements manual is prepared,

the work cards shall include all inspections, including event orientated special inspections.

3.6.2 Work card format. Print Presentation: Work cards shall be prepared in horizontal, 8 by 5 inch

format. Unless otherwise speciied by the acquiring activity (see 6.2u.), work cards shall be arranged

head to head. When speciied, work cards shall be arranged head to foot. Spacing and arrangement

shall be utilized to achieve uniformity. Individual inspection requirements shall be identiied by double

spacing between each requirement.

Electronic Presentation: Work cards shall be formatted as scrollable tables. The header and footer information

(from front card) will stay ixed while the text will scroll inside of the work card. Individual inspection

requirements shall be identiied by double spacing between each requirement.

3.6.3 Work card arrangement. Appendix D provides the DTD for electronic delivery of work cards. Work

card sets shall be arranged as follows:

a. Front Matter

b. Work Area Diagrams

c. Inspection Requirements
