5.3.4.6.1. (Added-Yokota) UTMs will build a 120-day training forecast for their unit(s) and
forward it to the MTS Scheduler by the last duty day of the month prior to the 120-day mark
(e.g., November’s forecast is due to the Scheduler by the last duty day in July). Include all
requests for FTD and MTS. Outside training providers (CATM/CBRNE) will be scheduled
approximately 30 days in advance.
5.3.4.6.2. (Added-Yokota) UTMs will use the training forecast to forecast unit requirements
and should project training attendance/completion in the month prior to the actual due date (e.g.,
a member coming due for SABC in December will be identified on the November forecast).
Names of the projected trainees should be identified for every seat forecasted (except
Maintenance Orientation). Training Monitors must ensure trainees are loaded into class rosters
NLT 30 days prior to class date to ensure all requested slots are assigned.
5.3.4.6.3. (Added-Yokota) Out-of-cycle requests will be coordinated through the UTM to the
MTS scheduling section and must be justified by the unit commander.

day prior to class start date. FTD rosters are provided to FTD by the 20th day of the month for
all classes starting the following month. The printed roster will be the baseline to identify walk-
ins, non-utilizations and no-shows. Attendees not on the roster will be counted as walk-ins.
Members identified on the roster but not in class will be counted as no-shows. Seat allocations
given to a unit that did not schedule a name in G081 or turn the allocation back in will be
counted as a non-utilization. Members scheduled for a class but do not meet the prerequisites or
have previously completed the class are also non-utilizations.
5.3.4.6.5. (Added-Yokota) If Air Education and Training Command (AETC) funding is not
available for requested off-station TDY training, the requesting unit will be responsible for
funding and preparing the TDY orders for the scheduled member.

Quality Assurance office. The TODO will record receipt to show TO increment is on-hand.
6.11.10.3.3. (Added-Yokota) It is the TODA’s responsibility to ensure that the TOs are posted
within five work days of the TODO stamp date.
24 AFI21-101_PACAFSUP_YOKOTAABSUP 15 JANUARY 2019
6.11.10.3.3.1. (Added-Yokota) Check the supercedure notice on the title page of the new TO
change, supplement, or TOPS.
6.11.10.3.3.2. (Added-Yokota) If a TO change is received out of sequence, the TODA or
library custodian will not post the increment. Until all previous increments are received, the
increment will be filed back of the TO and then write legibly on the title page of the TO in black
pencil that TO change is filed back of the book awaiting on previous changes, writing the
specific change numbers.
6.11.10.3.3.3. (Added-Yokota) The TODO will monitor the ETIMS for physical media TO
increments (paper, DVD, CDs) not received. No later than 60 calendar days after the
increment’s EDD (estimated delivery date) according to ETIMS, not its publication date, if the
increment is not received by the TODO through the Official Mail Center, the TODO will notify
the applicable TODAs. The TODA and/or library custodian will then write “Change [#] is
missing in shipment” on the top of the title page in black pencil only.
6.11.10.3.4. (Added-Yokota) Only complete TOs downloaded and printed from a digital
media source by a TODA custodian must be date stamped by the servicing TODO prior to
posting and placed on active TO library, if the following conditions are met:
6.11.10.3.4.1. (Added-Yokota) The TO account already has a subscription in ETIMS for the
paper TO and marked as Global and Active. If they are on subscription for a digital TO,
reproduction of the entire TO is not authorized.
6.11.10.3.4.2. (Added-Yokota) The paper TO is not on a list for zero subscription reduction of
physical media TOs identified by the TOMA, PACAF, group/squadron supervision or TODO.
6.11.10.3.4.3. (Added-Yokota) The reprinted TO is a replacement TO, on a one-for-one swap.
6.11.10.3.4.4. (Added-Yokota) Exception: If a TO page with date stamp (e.g., title page,
supplement) was severely torn or missing, the TODA will reprint the page and bring it to the
TODO to be re- stamped.
6.11.10.3.5. (Added-Yokota) Any TO downloaded to the unit’s shared drive from a digital
media source such as ETOV must be checked for currency using the ETIMS Catalog by
applicable TODA or TODO every seven calendar days and document each digital TO on a
locally generated document (hard copy or electronic copy stored on shared drive) for proof. The
unit will make sure the TO users meet the distribution statement to view the digital TO.
6.11.10.3.5.1. (Added-Yokota) No digital TOs will be re-hosted onto a SharePoint or any other
website due to the accessibility by everyone and restrictions according to the distribution
statement. This includes Local Checklists (LCLs) and Local Page Supplements (LPS) as a digital
file.
6.11.10.3.6. (Added-Yokota) Work centers with CPINS (Computer Program Identification
Numbers) software will have their physical medias (DVDs and CD-ROMs) organized for easier
accountability in the same place, if not part of inventory for a support equipment (i.e., Propeller
Balance Analyzer). These physical media will not be stored with other DVDs or CD-ROMs
where they can be mistaken for anything but a CPIN.
6.11.10.3.6.1. (Added-Yokota) CPIN ordering requests will be submitted by e-mail to the
parent TODO, unless already listed in a TCTO.
AFI21-101_PACAFSUP_YOKOTAABSUP 15 JANUARY 2019 25

for their account on the active TO library shelf only if both are met: (1) According to ETIMS, the
TO scope is marked Publication Status is marked ‘Active’ and the Media Type is ‘Paper’. (2)
And the paper TO is not on a list for zero subscription reduction of physical media TOs
identified by the TOMA, PACAF, group/squadron supervision or TODO, whichever is first.
6.11.10.4.1.1.1. (Added-Yokota) The TODA will make all efforts to reduce their paper TOs,

TOs on active library shelf including LEP checks and TO inventory checks until the paper TOs
are reduced to zero subscriptions.
6.11.10.4.1.2. (Added-Yokota) If the paper TO does not have the same currency as the digital
TO, it must not be checked out for use on Operation & Maintenance (O&M) equipment until all
paper changes are received and caught up with the digital version. The TODA and/or Library
Custodian will identify which ones are affected.
6.11.10.4.1.2.1. (Added-Yokota) The TO user will then follow TO 00-5-1 for TO extractions,
including printing out the title page, all applicable warnings, cautions, illustrations, supplements
affected by the task(s) needed in the TO. The TO user will write on the title page in black
pencil: date printed, date and time checked current, and TO user’s initials and employee man
number. The TO extracts are only good for duration of the day or after completion of the task. It
is the responsibility of the TO user for safe guarding the TO extracts and destroy it when no
longer needed.
6.11.10.4.1.3. (Added-Yokota) All requests for emergency justifications (whether paper or
digital TO) must be in official memorandum format, with justification and signed by the
section/flight chief. The letter will contain, at a minimum, the reason for the request and how
many TOs are needed. Emergency requisitions will be validated by the TODO. The TODO will
then enter the justification in ETIMS immediately for the TOMA to review for approval.
6.11.10.4.1.4. (Added-Yokota) Individual paper TO pages that are missing or torn cannot be
ordered through ETIMS. If only a few pages are needed, the TODAs and library custodians are
authorized to make copies of missing pages to include reprinting pages from current digital TO
source like ETOV; otherwise the entire TO will need to be re-ordered or re-printed (see
Paragraph 6.11.10.3.4.). If the digital TO is more current than paper version, then TODA will
cautiously check the change number on affected pages (both front and back) before reprinting the
26 AFI21-101_PACAFSUP_YOKOTAABSUP 15 JANUARY 2019
needed pages. If unable to reprint, write on title page the discrepant page and wait for updated
paper TO change to be received through mail system by the TODO.
6.11.10.4.1.5. (Added-Yokota) In order to obtain stamped copies of local technical data (e.g.,
LCL, LPS or LWC), the TODA must email a request to TODO. It will be processed into their
distribution box after printing from DAPS with GPC purchase.
6.11.10.4.2. (Added-Yokota) To provide longer lasting TOs, the use of a clear protective
covering (i.e. plastic protective sleeve) for heavily used pages is authorized. The pages will not
be laminated in case the page needs annotation of reference to supplements.
6.11.10.4.3. (Added-Yokota) TOs, checklists and work cards will be treated as tools, and if
lost, must be reported IAW AFI 21-101_PACAFSUP, Aircraft and Equipment Maintenance
Management Pacific Air Forces Supplement, and local instructions.
6.11.10.4.4. (Added-Yokota) Each aircraft T.O. library is a separate sub-account underneath
AMXS’ TODA sub-account F*121Q.003, managed by their custodians.

T.O. changes for that aircraft to the TODO at the deployed location for posting.
6.11.10.4.5. (Added-Yokota) Documentation of the List of Effective Pages Check (“LOEP” or
“LEP” Check) will be on the last page of the LEP using black pencil only. It will consist of type
of LEP check (revision, annual or change), date accomplished, initials and employee number.
The employee number will be used for QA or TODO to enter the follow up inspection into the
QA database.

will be legible and be made using black pencil only.
6.11.10.4.7. (Added-Yokota) FOD: Staples and/or other foreign objects will be removed from
TOs used on the flight line, on or around aircraft, and on or near any equipment that could be
affected by the potential FO. Page markers or Post-It Notes will not be used in TO binders.
6.11.10.4.8. (Added-Yokota) TODO will distribute all Safety Supplements immediately upon
receipt and notify TODAs that they have been distributed. TODAs will post the supplements
within 24 hours of received date stamp. TODO will notify squadron supervision of all Safety
Supplements applicable to their units within 24 hours of receipt. If the supplement is for a TO
that is digital viewable through e-Tools (Electronic Tools) in disconnected mode and supplement
is not embedded yet to the e-TO, the TODO will upload the supplement to the master e-Tool and
named to be listed next to the parent TO. Then, inform all applicable TODAs to manually
synchronize all of their e-Tools to receive the supplement update. The TO user will have to open
both parent TO file and supplement file in e-Tools and review them both prior to start of tasks.
The supplement will be kept on the master e-Tool until the supplement is embedded with the
parent TO (viewable through ETOV) or when it has been superseded by updated TO increment,
whichever is first). The TODO will manually remove the supplement from the master e-Tool
only. The supplement on each e-Tool will then be automatically removed during their next
synchronization with the master e-Tool.
6.11.10.4.9. (Added-Yokota) For accounts with paper TOs, the ETIMS listing (or MTOR) will
be printed by the TODA at the beginning of every month during the first week and reviewed for
accuracy NLT fifth day. The current MTOR for the month will be placed in their TODA
AFI21-101_PACAFSUP_YOKOTAABSUP 15 JANUARY 2019 27
Continuity Binder. If the account is too large to print the listing every month, the TODA may
store it electronically on the shared drive and have a DD Form 2861, Cross Reference, showing
the location.
6.11.10.4.9.1. (Added-Yokota) Upon receipt of monthly ETIMS listing, the TODA will
compare the ETIMS listing with the ETIMS Catalog to ensure all information is current. Any
discrepancies noted will be reported to the parent TODO NLT 10th day. At a minimum, they
will check the TOs that now listed as rescinded or renumbered and check for status of their paper
TOs on order.
6.11.10.4.10. (Added-Yokota) Discrepancies found in TOs of a non-technical nature (e.g. LEP
error, misprint) will be submitted in writing or e-mail to the servicing TODO. The TODO will
submit a two-way memo/e-mail to the ALC for clarification. The TODAs will receive a copy of
the two-way memo for their records when disposition instructions are provided by the ALC. All
discrepancies will be noted on the title page of the affected TO.
6.11.10.4.11. (Added-Yokota) TOs will be charged out of their library using TC MAX. If TC
MAX is not utilized, TOs will be charged out using AF Forms 614, Charge out Record, and
614A, Charge Out Record (8 X 5-1/2).
6.11.10.5. (Added-Yokota) Filing Order for AMC Supplements, Messages and Changes to
AMC Supplements.
6.11.10.5.1. (Added-Yokota) TODOs and TODAs will file AMC supplements behind the
applicable TO in ascending order, and will make an annotation concerning the AMC supplement
on the TO title page.
6.11.10.5.2. (Added-Yokota) TODOs and TODAs will file message changes to AMC
supplements on top of the AMC supplements, and will annotate the message on the AMC
supplements title page.
6.11.10.5.3. (Added-Yokota) TODOs and TODAs will file changes to AMC supplements
behind AMC supplements in ascending order, and will annotate the changes on the AMC
supplements title page.
6.11.10.6. (Added-Yokota) Local Checklists (LCL), Local Page Supplements (LPS) and Local
Work Cards (LWC).
6.11.10.6.1. (Added-Yokota) When actions of a technical nature arise that are not covered in
existing technical data, squadron supervision should determine the need for local technical data
(LTD) development. If determination warrants a technical procedure to be written, prepare LTD
IAW TO 00-5-1 and AFI 21-101. All newly proposed LTD draft copies will accompany a
signed AF Form 673, Air Force Publication/Form Action Request, and justification letter signed
by the squadron maintenance supervision. The letter must contain full justification, certifying
that no existing TO will suffice.
6.11.10.6.2. (Added-Yokota) Locally prepared technical data will not be used to circumvent
Air Force Material Command’s (AFMC) inherent responsibility for technical data (see TO 00-5-
1). During validation of LTD, all requests must be reviewed to determine if an AFTO Form 22,
Technical Manual (TM) Change Recommendation and Reply, is necessary for AF wide
implementation. The LTD will be returned to the Office of Primary Responsibility (OPR) for

will log on to the e-Tool with user’s own CAC during check out. And before leaving the support
section at Home Station, verify that the downloaded digital TOs are up to date and current within
seven calendar days IAW TO 00-5-1.
6.11.10.7.9. (Added-Yokota) After the user returns the e-Tool laptop to Support Section, the
support personnel will inventory the contents, verify that CAC is removed, the e-tool is restarted,
and no damage noted on the laptop.
AFI21-101_PACAFSUP_YOKOTAABSUP 15 JANUARY 2019 31
6.11.10.7.9.1. (Added-Yokota) Rebooting the e-Tool ensures someone has not left it locked
after turn-in. Left in restart makes it ready for the next user once its batteries are fully recharged.
And, powered on in restart mode places the computer in a generic state (no users logged on) to
receive and apply the updates. If not placed in restart mode while in the cabinet, users will need
to restart at sign out to pull down updates, thereby wasting time before departing support section.
6.11.10.7.10. (Added-Yokota) The Lead TODO(s) will coordinate with other TODOs and
TODAs, and local Client Support Administrators (CSA), Functional Systems Administrators

presented. Replacement tools must be marked with the CTK number prior to issue.
8.2.4.1.3. (Added-Yokota) Unserviceable tools removed from a CTK will be de-etched before
being placed in a separate, secure location until turned in for salvage purposes.
Unserviceable/broken tools will be replaced within 60 days or a requisition must be on file in the
Support Section showing the tool(s) is (are) on order. Account for all damaged or broken tools
on MXG Form 10. Items requiring turn in to DRMO or recycling will be secured and tracked
until processed for disposal.
8.2.4.1.4. (Added-Yokota) If one item of a set is unserviceable, the item will be removed and
handled as a broken tool. If the item is not to be replaced, the number of pieces on the tool
listing must be changed and annotated on the list.
8.2.4.1.5. (Added-Yokota) A quarterly inventory of all spare and expendable tools/items will
be accomplished and documented on a general-purpose or automated form. The inventory will

closed when not actively being used will have the lids firmly closed when stored in lockers.
8.2.4.2.7. (Added-Yokota) Hazmat that has been used or is in use no longer falls under the
shelf-life program; it is in its “service life”. Service life determines how long a material is usable
once placed in service and is defined by TO, manufacturer data, or AFI guidance (i.e., once
applied to the aircraft, paint has a service life of 6 years).
8.2.4.2.7.1. (Added-Yokota) Service life is not intended to cover items opened and partially
used, then closed and placed back on the shelf for later use (i.e., a two-part sealant kit with only a
portion of the contents mixed and used may be placed back on the shelf for later use but while on
the shelf still must adhere to shelf life guidelines). These items will be disposed of once their
shelf life/expiration date is exceeded.
8.2.4.3. (Added-Yokota) Hazardous Materials/Environmental Impact Analysis Process. CTK
Custodians/NCOICs will be aware of the environmental impact of all hazardous materials issued
from or stored in the CTK and will be aware of the procedures listed in the Yokota AB
Hazardous Waste Management Plan.

1297, Temporary Issue.
8.2.5.2.3. (Added-Yokota) The outgoing and incoming individuals will inventory the CTKs.
The incoming individual will annotate the AF Form 1297. The CTK monitor will clear the
outgoing individual and maintain the AF Form 1297 or locally approved form until the CTK has
been turned in or TCMax has been updated to reflect the new user of the CTK.
8.2.5.2.4. (Added-Yokota) If a discrepancy exists (e.g., undocumented missing tool, broken
tools), personnel will immediately notify appropriate supervision. See section 11 of this
instruction (Lost Tool/Object Procedures). Transfer of CTK will not take place under these
circumstances.
8.2.7.1. (Added-Yokota) The 374 MXG QA assigns a prefix to the beginning of CTK numbers
assigned to each section. Every CTK will strictly adhere to alphabetical/identification prefixes
allotted/assigned to it by QA (Table 8.1). The CTK numbers will begin with the assigned prefix
followed by a set of digits consisting of any combination of numbers/letters/symbols that will
ease the use of identification.

on an aircraft that has taxied and/or is airborne, the Pro Super will notify the MOC to initiate the
Lost Tool Quick Reaction Checklist (QRC). Aircrew will attempt to locate and secure the lost
tool. If the lost tool is not secured, the Pro Super will notify MOC to recall the aircraft. MOC
will then contact Command Post to initiate recalling the affected aircraft. After this recall, a
thorough search will be conducted.
8.9.1.1.1.2. (Added-Yokota) If a tool is found missing from a CTK, and was previously used
on an aircraft that has not taxied and/or is not airborne, after a 30 minute initial search of the
affected area, the Production Superintendent (Pro Super) will notify the MOC. The individual
who lost the tool will also notify their CTK or tool monitor and initiate a MXG Form 4 (Lost
Tool / Object Report). Operations personnel will follow the same reporting procedures. The
CTK NCOIC will ensure a copy of the completed report is forwarded to the 374 AW FOD
Monitor within 72 hours.
8.9.1.1.1.3. (Added-Yokota) If an item/object is discovered missing while performing an
inspection/maintenance, the individual who discovered this will search the immediate work area
for this missing item and notify his Pro Super. If not found within 30 minutes, the Pro Super will
notify MOC and the individual will initiate a MXG Form 4. The on shift Pro Super or Section
Chief will ensure the user routes a completed report to the 374 AW FOD Monitor within 72
hours.
8.9.1.1.1.4. (Added-Yokota) The MOC will initiate the appropriate QRC. The MXG/CC or
CD will determine if aircraft impoundment is necessary.
8.9.1.1.1.5. (Added-Yokota) If the item is not found, the respective squadron supervision will
determine when the search will be terminated.
8.9.1.1.2. (Added-Yokota) If a tool is discovered missing and it has been positively determined
the tool was not used on an aircraft, after a 30 minute search of the affected area, the individual
with responsibility for the tool (with assistance from the CTK custodian) will initiate an MXG
Form 4, Lost Tool/Object Report, and notify the Production Superintendent. Ensure a copy of
the completed report is forwarded to 374 AW FOD Monitor within 72 hours.

11.6.5.2. (Added-Yokota) MOC will maintain a product to track manually created jobs when
the MIS is down. When necessary, maintainers will create Red Ball jobs in the 781 forms and
contact MOC for a manual JCN. MOC will track each manually created job and, once available,
will enter all jobs into the MIS.
11.6.5.3. (Added-Yokota) Production Superintendents and Expediters will ensure applicable
jobs are opened and closed through MOC to ensure tracking of maintenance while the MIS is
down and that MOC can accurately complete MIS documentation once it is back up. Production
Superintendents must verify with MOC to ensure all Red Xs are closed prior to ER and aircraft
launch.
11.8.1.1. (Added-Yokota) FOD General Procedures:
11.8.1.2. (Added-Yokota) “FOD Elimination” is the standard. Attention to detail, coupled
with a proactive approach at all levels, will result in a zero FOD rate. FOD prevention is
everyone's responsibility. Supervisors at every level will ensure that proper FOD prevention
procedures are strictly enforced.
11.8.1.3. (Added-Yokota) “ZERO TOLERANCE” is the standard for all FOD prevention
measures as well as for 374th Maintenance Group Quality Assurance (374 MXG/MXQ)
assessments on aircraft, work areas directly in or around aircraft, tool boxes, work areas that
support aircraft systems and Aerospace Ground Equipment (AGE).
11.8.1.4. (Added-Yokota) All FOD assessments and spot checks will be objective based on the
“zero tolerance” concept.
11.8.1.5. (Added-Yokota) FOD found within one half hour of a FOD walk or hangar sweep
will constitute a fail against the performing organization. FOD found, including FO discovered
later than one half hour after a FOD walk or hangar sweep, will be subject to investigation by
374 AW FOD Monitor or QA inspectors.
56 AFI21-101_PACAFSUP_YOKOTAABSUP 15 JANUARY 2019
11.8.1.6. (Added-Yokota) The “clean-as-you-go” concept will be strictly followed. On the
flight line and in the hangars, it is important to stress that proactive housekeeping procedures will
be initiated throughout every task. The task is not complete until the area is cleaned up. Strict
use of parts bags will be enforced.
11.8.1.7. (Added-Yokota) Incorporate “clean as you go” into FOD training to enhance the
ability of reducing potential FOD.
11.8.1.8. (Added-Yokota) “Clean as you go” procedures are expressed below:
11.8.1.8.1. (Added-Yokota) Clean the immediate area when work cannot continue.
11.8.1.8.2. (Added-Yokota) Clean the immediate area when work debris has the potential to
migrate to an out of sight or inaccessible area and cause damage and/or give the appearance of
poor workmanship.
11.8.1.8.3. (Added-Yokota) Clean the immediate area after work is completed and prior to
inspection.
11.8.1.8.4. (Added-Yokota) Clean area at the end of each shift.
11.8.1.8.5. (Added-Yokota) If you drop something or hear something drop--pick it up!
11.8.3.1.4. (Added-Yokota) Prevention Policy. FOD and dropped objects are costly and have
a negative impact on mission accomplishment. Every effort will be made by all 374 AW
personnel to ensure FOD and DOP prevention measures are followed. Supervisors at all levels
will ensure everyone within their span of control is trained on, and implements FOD/DOP
prevention procedures at all times.
11.8.3.6.6. (Added-Yokota) Clothing restrictions. Hats will not be worn on the flight line. All
personnel performing ground observer duties for engine start must clear any pockets that cannot
be buttoned, zipped, or otherwise secured of all objects prior to engine operation. Objects that
protrude from the uniform (pens, pencils, etc.) must also be removed.
11.8.3.6.7. (Added-Yokota) Wear of the winter watch cap is authorized and may be worn
during aircraft launch or recovery when using the following procedures:
11.8.3.6.8. (Added-Yokota) Ear defender/communication headset devices should be worn over
the watch cap.
11.8.3.6.9. (Added-Yokota) If ear defender/communication headset is not worn over watch cap
then cap must be firmly set on individual’s head and pulled down over ears to prevent it from
inadvertently coming off.
11.8.3.6.10. (Added-Yokota) For FOD prevention and safety reasons the AF Form 1199, Air
Force Entry Control Card (Restricted Area Badge), will be removed during engine inlet
maintenance and secured. Badge will be secured by placing it in a safe area or having another
member procure it. The badge will be worn upon termination or when not in the immediate area
where the engine inlet maintenance is conducted.
11.8.3.8.1.1. (Added-Yokota) All aircraft hangars, maintenance production areas, and vehicles
that frequent flight line/maintenance areas will have approved area FOD containers readily
accessible to workers. An area FOD container will be a sturdy receptacle. Flight line vehicle
containers must be lidded type containers. Shops may fabricate or procure small portable FO
AFI21-101_PACAFSUP_YOKOTAABSUP 15 JANUARY 2019 57
containers (coffee cans, FOD bags, etc.) for use where area collection points are not feasible such
as on maintenance stands or work benches.
11.8.3.8.2. (Added-Yokota) Containers will be stenciled with the word “FOD” in contrasting
letters. “FOD” stickers may be used on FOD containers and are available from the 374 AW FOD
Monitor’s office.
11.8.3.8.3. (Added-Yokota) All FOD containers will be emptied when full or at the end of each
shift, whichever comes first.
11.8.3.8.4. (Added-Yokota) Approved FOD containers will be installed on all multi or special
purpose vehicles (metros, deicers, tow vehicles, etc.) which frequent flight line/maintenance
areas.
11.8.3.9.1. (Added-Yokota) Practice good housekeeping and hardware accountability at all
times. Parts bags will be used at all times and will be attached to the associated component or
area as applicable. Use attached tag to indicate types and totals of items inside,
aircraft/equipment number and safely secure parts. Plastic “Ziploc” type bags may be used as
parts bags, provided they have a listing included on paper or have the contents annotated on the
package with permanent ink. Locally produced part accountability kits may also be used to
account for component hardware (e.g., engine mount bolt kit).
11.8.3.9.2. (Added-Yokota) Hardware and shop stock control. Hardware and shop stock (acid
brushes, paint pens, razor blades, etc.) will be issued on a one-for-one basis. Bench stock must be
secured in a controlled area. When obtaining these items from the Consolidated Tool Kit (CTK)
or Supply area, turn in one item to receive one like item. For instances where a turn-in part is not
available, CTK or supply personnel will annotate a locally produced log with the following
minimum information: Name, rank, bin number, quantity, date, aircraft tail number, and job
control number. Contracted maintenance operations will follow these guidelines, except in areas
where their statement of work exempts them from it due to contractual FOD prevention
requirements.
11.8.3.11. (Yokota) Base FOD walks. FOD walks are mandatory to remove FO from the flight
line parking ramp, access road, and adjacent areas.
11.8.3.11.2. (Added-Yokota) 374 AW level FOD walks are conducted once a week on Monday
at the times listed in Table 11.2. This time may be adjusted depending on mission requirements
to maximize participation, upon coordination with the Wing FOD Monitor. Squadron personnel
will assemble at designated flight line area spots. Maximum participation is essential for a
successful FOD walk.
11.8.3.11.3. (Added-Yokota) FOD walk areas of responsibility are as follows:

11.8.3.11.4. (Added-Yokota) The Wing FOD Monitor may adjust FOD walk days to meet
mission requirements when necessary. FOD walks may be terminated by the Wing FOD
Monitor during inclement weather (e.g., heavy fog, heavy rain, severe temperatures, or when the
Maintenance Operations Center (MOC) announces lightning inside five nautical miles); when
these conditions are present Unit FOD monitors will call the Wing FOD monitor to cancel and
reschedule. FOD walks will be rescheduled accordingly if cancelled.
11.8.3.11.5. (Added-Yokota) Aircraft maintenance units (AMUs) should conduct their own
FOD walks on each duty day when group-level FOD walks are not accomplished. Individuals
will conduct walks around individual aircraft and hangars prior to start and after completion of
any maintenance on that aircraft. The alternative procedure is for units to assemble a structured
line once a day in their area and conduct a FOD walk.
11.8.3.11.6. (Added-Yokota) FOD walk procedures. All participants will assemble prior to
FOD walk for a safety briefing. For safety reasons the FOD walk supervisor has ultimate
authority in controlling procession of the line and personnel will disperse evenly as directed. The
FOD walk supervisor must call MOC to coordinate authorization from Security Forces before
breaking red (crossing the red restricted area lines) when applicable. Movement will be at a slow
pace, paying special attention to equipment, grounding points, expansion joints, and cracks in
pavement. Personnel will disperse evenly as directed and move slowly in an even line. If
AFI21-101_PACAFSUP_YOKOTAABSUP 15 JANUARY 2019 59
hardware (safety wire, rivets, nuts, washers, etc.) is discovered, inform the FOD walk supervisor
of the parking spot where the item was found.
11.3.8.11.7. (Added-Yokota) Aircraft parking spots will be FOD walked prior to parking and
after moving aircraft from the spot. This requirement pertains to both towed and taxied aircraft.
Tow supervisors/expediters will ensure the spot is FOD walked no sooner than 30 minutes prior
to parking on and no later than 30 minutes after moving from the spot.
11.8.3.13. (Yokota) Flight deck FOD inspections. All 374 AW aircraft flight deck FOD
prevention inspections will be accomplished no earlier than 4 hours prior to flight and annotated
in the aircraft AFTO Form 781A, Maintenance Discrepancy and Work Document. Check for
foreign, loose, or missing items (light lenses, covers, bulbs, and hardware) on all instrument,
control, and circuit breaker panels. Pay particular attention to areas around seat tracks, flight
control inputs, and openings in the throttle quadrant and floor.
11.8.3.15.1.1. (Added-Yokota) Streamers. “REMOVE BEFORE FLIGHT” streamers will be
used on ground wires and any external cover applied to the aircraft on the ground.
11.8.3.15.1.2. (Added-Yokota) Equipment Identification. Owning organization will clearly
mark -21 equipment to maintain control and facilitate equipment return if removed off-station
due to mission requirements. Equipment may be marked using black paint, black permanent
marker, etched or monogrammed. If the item is still too small for a marker or engraver, (e.g., tie
down rings), then disregard marking it. Units will stencil their organization identifier (e.g.,
374AW, etc.) on each piece of -21 equipment using black paint, black permanent marker, etched
or monogrammed. Custom engraved and/or monogrammed -21 equipment is authorized as long
as the organizational identifier is standardized. If aircraft tail numbers are stenciled on -21
equipment, do not interchange -21 equipment with multiple tail numbers on a singular aircraft.
11.8.3.16. (Yokota) Vehicles. Vehicles are potential FO/FOD hazards. All vehicles will be
maintained FO-free at all times. Vehicles and FOD bars will be checked for cleanliness prior to
operating the vehicle. Each subsequent operator will ensure the vehicle and magnetic bar are FO
free. All vehicle/equipment tires and magnetic bars will be checked and cleared of debris prior
to entering the flight line. During hours of darkness, a bright flashlight will be used for this
inspection. Vehicles involved in an actual emergency response are exempt from these tire
checks.
11.8.3.16.1. (Added-Yokota) All vehicles prior to entering a flightline gate (with the exception
of the control tower gate, and the dental gate) will come to a complete stop, turn off the engine
and set parking brake. Control tower and dental gate FOD checks will be completed after the
flightline gate but before crossing any taxiway or ramp if no FOD check box is available.
Personnel will shut off the engine, set parking brake, then exit the vehicle and check for
imbedded foreign objects on vehicle tire surfaces, start engine, then pull forward (Roll-Over),
turn off engine, set parking brake, and check any previously unexposed tire surface area for
imbedded foreign objects. Vehicle operators will also check for any loose objects or unsecure
cargo on the vehicle. This check will be accomplished inside or as close to the “FOD Roll-Over
Tire Check Box” as possible, and will be accomplished prior to the FOD check sign.
11.8.3.16.2. (Added-Yokota) Aircraft servicing vehicles, AGE tow vehicles (bobtail), or any
vehicle that requires the engine to idle due to pneumatic air starters or T.O. specific procedures
that call for the vehicle to idle for a specific period of time before the engine is turned off will be
60 AFI21-101_PACAFSUP_YOKOTAABSUP 15 JANUARY 2019
exempt from shutting engines off for vehicle FOD roll over checks. These vehicles will have the
parking brake set, transmission in neutral or park, and chock the rear wheels while performing
FOD Roll-Over checks IAW TC 21-305-20/AFMAN 24-306(I).
11.8.3.16.3. (Added-Yokota) Charlie, Delta, and Echo ramp access road is not a FOD-free
zone and requires a FOD check prior to entering the ramp. The perimeter of this road facing the
flight line is marked with “FOD CHECK ZONE” and any vehicle transitioning to the flight line
will perform a Roll-Over check before entering Charlie, Delta, and Echo ramp.
11.8.3.16.4. (Added-Yokota) Magnetic FOD bars may be installed on all “high use” Transit
Alert/dispatch/expediter vehicles. Vehicles exempt from this requirement are as follows:
Crash/recovery vehicles, mules/golf carts, tow vehicles, cranes, forklifts, other special purpose
vehicles, and any vehicles not operated frequently on the flight line.
11.8.3.16.5. (Added-Yokota) If used, FOD bars will be installed either on the front or back
bumper of the vehicle approximately 3”- 5” off the ground. All FOD bars will be removed prior
to turn in to vehicle maintenance and reinstalled immediately upon return.
11.8.3.24. (Added-Yokota) Incentive Program. Foreign Object Damage (FOD) Poster
Competition/Golden Bolt Award.
11.8.3.24.1. (Added-Yokota) The 374 AW has established the Quarterly FOD Poster
Competition. This competition is open to the entire 374 AW and its tenant units. Posters may be
drawn by hand or developed electronically. Submit completed posters to the 374 AW FOD
Monitor either electronically or in person before the last day of each calendar quarter.
11.8.3.24.1.1. (Added-Yokota) The Wing FOD Monitor/QA office will vote for the best
poster. For quarterly competitions, the winner will receive a certificate and be
authorized/recommended for a 1-day pass. The annual competition winner will receive a
certificate and be authorized/recommended for a 3-day pass.
11.8.3.24.2. (Added-Yokota) Each month the Wing FOD Monitor will hide a Golden Bolt in a
maintenance work area or on the airfield during the weekly FOD walks. Whoever finds the bolt
will be recommended for a 1-day pass and receive a certificate from the 374 AW Vice
Commander (374 AW/CV). These passes must be coordinated with the individual’s work center
supervisor and be taken when workload permits. The bolt will be clearly tracked by the FOD
Monitor to preclude its loss during FOD walk.
11.8.3.25. (Added-Yokota) Towed FOD sweepers and airfield sweeper vehicles will be used
for base FOD prevention efforts.
11.8.3.25.1. (Added-Yokota) Areas requiring airfield sweepers will be coordinated through the
airfield manager by calling the Maintenance Operations Center.
11.8.3.25.2. (Added-Yokota) Towed FOD Sweeper Usage. The FOD sweeper is an effective
tool used to supplement airfield sweepers in removing FOD from large areas of the airfield in an
efficient manner. In order for the FOD sweeper to be effective, units that are assigned a FOD
sweeper must tow it on a regularly scheduled basis. The squadron FOD monitors are responsible
for managing this program at the squadron level.
11.8.3.25.3. (Added-Yokota) Two triplex FOD sweeper are assigned to 374 MXS and one
triplex FOD sweeper is assigned to 374 AMXS. 730 AMS has one triplex FOD boss sweeper.
AFI21-101_PACAFSUP_YOKOTAABSUP 15 JANUARY 2019 61
11.8.3.25.4. (Added-Yokota) Any vehicle can be used to pull the FOD sweeper so long as
good coverage of the ramp is achieved. To prevent damage to the FOD sweeper backing of the
vehicle is prohibited with the FOD sweeper installed, and the FOD sweeper should not be towed
during inclement weather. Vehicles towing a FOD sweeper should focus additional attention on
parking spots recently vacated by aircraft.
11.8.3.25.5. (Added-Yokota) FOD sweeper usage will be tracked and recorded by the CTK of
the assigned workcenter on AF Form 3131, General Purpose Form. The form will track the
following: Name of personnel, squadron/office symbol, date/time, hours driven, area covered,
weight and description of material collected.
11.8.3.25.6. (Added-Yokota) Units will use a FOD sweeper for a minimum of 4 hours a week
and dictate which shift the FOD boss will be utilized. This will be based on mission
requirements and ramp/taxiway condition. After days of inclement weather it is recommended
that the FOD sweeper be pulled to ensure a FOD free ramp.
11.8.3.25.6.1. (Added-Yokota) The unit FOD representative or CTK will notify the 374 AW
FOD prevention office when a sweeper goes down for maintenance. Sweepers will be borrowed
from another unit to sweep required areas, which will be credited to the unit pulling it.
11.8.3.25.6.2. (Added-Yokota) FOD sweeper usage requirements are as follows:
Table 11.4. (Added-Yokota) Requirements of FOD Sweeper Usage.

scheduled by AGE and Fabrication Flight according to mission requirements and current coating
condition. Maintenance painting of deteriorated areas will be done to prevent or repair corrosion.
11.35.10.3. (Added-Yokota) Non-critical corrosion control tasking (painting of FOD cans,
chocks, signs etc.) will be kept to an absolute minimum. In cases where non-critical items are
painted the local manufacture process will be followed.
11.35.10.4. (Added-Yokota) Use of Fabrication Flight personnel, assets, or materials for
fabrication of non-mission oriented projects, such as gifts, awards, or mementos is strictly
prohibited unless authorized by the Fabrication Flight Chief and MXS Maintenance Operations
Officer or higher, to minimize impact to mission requirements and/or the availability of parts and
assets.
11.35.10.5. (Added-Yokota) All maintenance and operations personnel, regardless of Air
Force Specialty Code (AFSC), are responsible to document potentially corroded
structures/components in the proper maintenance forms. The Aircraft Structural Maintenance
(ASM) Section evaluates corrosion discrepancies to determine proper treatment or repair.
11.35.10.6. (Added-Yokota) Use padded panel racks to store panels/parts for aircraft and
equipment during maintenance. When panels are stored or laid on hangar floors, parking ramp
surfaces, aircraft cargo bay floors, or any other hard surface that could scratch or mar protective

between the names. The names will be 3-inch block style lettering. Painted or peel and stick
lettering is acceptable; color will match the unit designator color. Names applied must be their
given name only. An individual’s first name can be either the given proper name (William,
Robert, James, etc.) or the more familiar, shorter form of the proper name (Bill, Bob, Jim, etc.).
The title “DCC” or "ADCC" will not precede the crew chief names.
11.35.11.2.1. (Added-Yokota) Crew Chief names are added to aircraft in recognition of the
significant level of responsibility inherent to the Dedicated Crew Chief (DCC) program. Having
their name on their primary aircraft instills pride and a sense of ownership; therefore, DCCs will
apply their names to their aircraft in the approved location upon appointment to their DCC role.
11.35.11.2.2. (Added-Yokota) The 374 MXS Fabrication Flight will provide the names and
materials necessary to facilitate the install.

printed weekly flying schedule.
15.5.6.10.2. (Added-Yokota) Combat/exercise sortie generation will include operations using
an Air Tasking Oder (ATO). Operations and Maintenance will meet daily to discuss ATO
scheduling during sortie generation and flying execution. A daily schedule will be finalized on
an AF Form 2407 and confirmed with operations and the MOC NLT 2 hours prior to the first
take-off time. Once the daily schedule has been finalized, normal AF Form 2407 rules apply
with exceptions outlined in paragraph 15.5.6.3.9.
15.5.6.10.2.1. (Added-Yokota) The daily schedule derived from an ATO is applicable to
affected organizations and can contain mission numbers, tail numbers for the first lines and
spares, and configurations.
15.5.6.10.3. (Added-Yokota) Unlike a planned sortie surge, early and late-takeoffs are
recorded on second and subsequent sorties, unless a change due to operational requirements is
made to the ATO. Normal deviations will be recorded against all sorties using the new
104 AFI21-101_PACAFSUP_YOKOTAABSUP 15 JANUARY 2019
published schedule derived from the ATO. Note: All sorties launched under a “Classified
ATO” will be considered flown as scheduled. Classified ATO lines that are missed will be
recorded as cancels in the MIS. Cancellations will be loaded into in the MIS once the sortie is
declared cancelled regardless of actual scheduled take-off time and ground aborts will be
recorded.

Consumable Items (in a CTK) (Added) (Yokota)—Consumables must be limited to the
minimum necessary to support maintenance requirements. Criteria for placing consumables
inside a CTK are based on the impact of not having items immediately available versus the time
required to obtain them from bench stock. Examples of consumable items include safety wire
and electrical insulators. Consumable items placed in a CTK are treated as tools and must be
marked with the worldwide identifier (WWID).
Dispatchable CTK (Added) (Yokota)—CTK designed and/or issued out for use on aircraft or
SE. This includes all components and equipment that are designated individually in GO81/MIS
(i.e., aircraft, AGE, engines) but not parts or pieces of those assets (panels, doors, wheels, etc).
CTKs used on these assets, even when the asset is located inside the work center (i.e.,
AGE/ERRC maintenance floors, Metals Technology welding area), are considered dispatchable.
Deployable CTKs (Added) (Yokota)—Dispatchable CTKs with specific markings and
inventory requirements; used to support off-station missions.
106 AFI21-101_PACAFSUP_YOKOTAABSUP 15 JANUARY 2019
Expendable Items (in a CTK) (Added) (Yokota)—Those items that may be rendered unusable
during use. Examples of expendable items include: apexes, allen wrenches and saw blades.
Tool Crib (Added) (Yokota)—A central location possessing facilities to store and maintain
CTKs, equipment and consumable items; also referred to as “Tool Room.” The tool crib/room
may be co-located with the bench stock section.
