1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 General
The AER(EP).00-1-APR-49 "Libretto Rapporti di Volo/Utilizzo e Registro della
Manutenzione degli Aeromobili a Pilotaggio Remoto – Modelli DP/5069/APR” is
the National reference regulation for the compiling and maintaining of the
flight/utilization and maintenance logbooks. Paragraphs 2.1 and 3.1 of the
AER(EP).00-1-APR-49, allow the possibility of dedicated procedures for
Unmanned Aerial Systems (UASs) to manage peculiar data, through the issuing of

a specific regulation that guarantees the general principles of the AER(EP).00-1-
APR-49. Hence, the NATO AGS flight/utilization and maintenance logbooks
procedures and templates for the UAS are defined in this dedicate regulation that
follows the main principles of the AER(EP).00-1-APR-49.
1.2 Overview
The technical LOG, similar to the logbooks in accordance with (i.a.w.)
AER(EP).00-1-24, is a continuing airworthiness record. The NATO AGS technical
LOG(s) provide accurate information on the status and position of the NATO AGS
Air Segment.
As the NATO AGS Air Segment as a whole consist of an Unmanned Air Vehicle
(UAV) and the Air Vehicle Mission Command & Control (AVMC2), and considering
the utilization of the Deployable UAV Control Element (DUCE) independently from
the AVMC2, it is necessary to use specific technical LOGs for the UAV, AVMC2
and DUCE.
This regulation defines procedures and templates for compiling and maintaining
the NATO AGS UAV, AVMC2 and DUCE Technical LOGs.
1.3 Aim
This regulation applies specifically to the NATO AGS Air Segment and defines and
regulates the management of the:
 Technical LOG of the AVMC2, Form DP-5069/RQ-4D/AVMC2, hereafter
identified as "AVMC2 Technical LOG";
 Technical LOG of the DUCE, Form DP-5069/RQ-4D/DUCE, hereafter identified
as "DUCE Technical LOG"; and
 Technical LOG of the UAV, Form DP-5069/RQ-4D/UAV, hereafter identified as
"UAV Technical LOG".
1.4 Applicability
This regulation is applicable to the registered NATO AGS Air Segment.
1.5 Validity
This regulation shall come into effect as of its approval date.

DP-5069/RQ-4D/AVMC2 & DP-5069/RQ-4D/DUCE
This paragraph describes the AVMC2 Technical LOG and it is applicable also to
the DUCE Technical LOG if not differently indicated.
Paragraph 4 provides the facsimile for AVMC2 and DUCE Technical LOGs.
2.1 AVMC2 Technical LOG Description

The Technical LOG of the AVMC2 consists of the Parts described below. Each
Part of the LOG consists of various blocks identified by a number.
The AVMC2 Technical LOG contains:
- A cover/instruction sheet;
- The four Parts described below.
 PART I "AVMC2 - GCS FLIGHT REPORT LOG"

The AVMC2 is made of more than one Ground Control Station (GCSs), for
this reason individual Part I of the Technical LOG shall be filled in for each
GCS (note that the DUCE has only one GCS).
For each flight carried out under the control of the specific GCS, it contains a
record of the flight's data (purpose, duration, etc.), data of the UAV
employed, the utilization of the GCS and the personnel present in the GCS
who participated in the flight. Part I is one sheet consisting of a "front" side
(Part I.F) and a "rear" side (Part I.R).
 PART II "AVMC2 OPERATIONS, INSPECTIONS AND MAINTENANCE

LOG"
It contains a continuous record of:
2
a. The position of the AVMC2 and its status (serviceable or unserviceable)

with particular reference to the data necessary to identify the
responsibilities for the serviceability of the AVMC2 in order to conduct the
flight;
b. The AVMC2 usage and its components;
c. The status of the AVMC2 with regard to the applicable inspections
performed or to be carried out, including scheduled inspections not
executed at proper time;
d. All faults, deficiencies or inefficiencies noted on the AVMC2, as well as of

the related corrective actions taken, including faults that have no influence
on the serviceability of the AVMC2 for its utilization and whose corrective
action can be deferred to the earliest opportunity;
Generally, one sheet of Part II is filled in for each utilization of the AVMC2
regardless a flight was carried out.
Part II is one sheet consisting of a "front" side (Part II.F) and a "rear" side
(Part II.R).
 PART III "LIST OF AVMC2 DEFERRED CORRECTIVE ACTIONS"

It contains a continuous record of the faults that have no influence on the
serviceability of the AVMC2 for its use to conduct the flight and whose
elimination can be deferred to the first earliest maintenance opportunity or
scheduled inspection. In this part, the scheduled inspection/maintenance and
Service Bulletins not carried out by the scheduled date are also recorded,
only when the positive outcome of dedicated checks and/or inspections,
foreseen by a Technical Publication (TP), allow for their deferral. Part III is
one sheet consisting of a "front" side (Part III.F) and a "rear" side (Part III.R).
 PART IV " AVMC2 GENERAL CHARACTERISTIC DATA"

This part contains:
a. The characteristic data of the AVMC2;
b. The AVMC2’s calendar and hourly maintenance schedule and its
accessories (when an accessory has been replaced, part IV shall be
updated as well);
c. Operating instructions, cautions, and/or operational limitations with
reference to (w.r.t.) one or more of the following cases:
- introduction or not of changes that could interfere with operational
activities;
- activation or deactivation of specific equipment;
- faults for which the resolution has already been deferred to the earliest
opportunity, as reported in Part III.
d. The record of the inspections made on the LOG.
Part IV is one sheet consisting of a "front" side (Part IV.F) and a "rear" side
(Part IV.R).
3
The AVMC2 Technical LOG shall contain 30 sheets of Part II and the necessary
sheets of Part I, Part III and Part IV associated with them. The sheets of Part I,
separated for each GCS, are introduced before the first sheet of Part II, while the
sheets of Part III and IV are inserted after the last sheet of Part II. Both the LOG
and the sheets of Part I, II, III and IV are provided by a sequential numbering field
as described in paragraph 2.4 "Filling in the AVMC2 Technical LOG". Each
AVMC2 Technical LOG is defined as concluded when the thirtieth sheet of Part II
is filled in.
2.2 AVMC2 Technical LOG First set up

The activity of associating a Technical LOG to a specific AVMC2 is indicated with
the term "set up" and it consists of recording for the first time the characteristic
data of the AVMC2 to which the Technical LOG refers (type, Experimental Tail
Number - Military Registration Number, current use etc.). These data represents
the status of the AVMC2 in relation to the activity carried out before set up.
The first LOG to be associated to the AVMC2 recorded in the Military Aircraft
Register, shall be set up by the NAGSF no later than the tender for acceptance
and in any case before the first operations under the responsibility of the NAGSF,
on the basis of the data provided by the SDR. In relation to these data, the NAGSF
is responsible solely for transcribing them onto the LOG. The original
documentation of the SDR shall be retained by the NAGSF together with the LOG
– i.a.w. the same time constraints – but shall not be updated. Once a LOG is
completed, NAGSF shall set up the subsequent LOG relating to the same AVMC2.
In particular, who set up the LOG shall fill in all the fields in the cover and the
progressive numbering of each sheet of Part II.
NOTE
The activities of the AVMC2 carried out before the first set up of the
Technical LOG, shall be contained in dedicated documents, which may
have a different format from the LOG itself. Once the Technical LOG is set
up, the documentation containing all information about the activity carried
out previously, shall be stored by who set up the Technical LOG with the
same procedures/times as the LOG, and shall be available for DAAA and
Competent Body at all times.
2.3 AVMC2 Technical LOG Reproduction

NAGSF is authorized to use the faithful reproduction of the printouts of the AVMC2
Technical LOG shown in paragraph 4 of this regulation. In any case, each
individual AVMC2 Technical LOG shall contain a number of sheets i.a.w. the
provisions of paragraph 2.1 and be printed on both sides in such a way as to have
a sheet containing on the "front" side the cover and on the "rear" side the
instruction, the sheets of Part I consisting of the front side "Part I.F" and of the rear
side "Part I.R", and similarly for the sheets of Part II, III and IV.

2.4 AVMC2 Technical LOG Filling In

To fill in the AVMC2 Technical LOG, follow the instructions provided below. All
entries, with the exception of signatures, shall be written in block letters, for best
clarity and legibility, and with a blue or black pen (indelible ink), unless otherwise
specified herein.
Any corrections shall be made with a red pen and initialed, in manner that the
original entry remains readable. Descriptions shall be precise and concise: when
necessary, use more than one line or multiple sheets of the same type to obtain
the utmost precision of expression.

NOTE
Before each mission, the crew shall review the status of the AVMC2 in
terms of the serviceability and limitations/operating instructions of Part IV.
The detailed instructions for filling in all the Parts of the AVMC2 Technical LOG
are provided below:
 COVER
The Technical LOG cover shall be filled in by who set up the LOG, completing
the following fields:
 P/N
Part Number (P/N) of the AVMC2 to which the LOG refers. If, during the
employment of the AVMC2, modifications that change the P/N are
introduced, maintaining the same serial number, in the LOG in use at that
time, but not necessarily in the subsequent ones, both the old and the new
P/N shall be indicated.
In any case, the numbering of the LOG referred to the new AVMC2 P/N shall
continue from that of the LOGs associated with the same AVMC2 Serial
Number (S/N) of the old P/N.
 S/N
Serial Number (S/N) of the AVMC2 which the LOG refers to.

 AVMC2 TECHNICAL LOG - Part II

A Part II sheet is filled in, in case:
a) the AVMC2 is used for conducting a flight;
b) any AVMC2 fault raises;
c) any AVMC2 maintenance activity is executed.
The Part II has to be opened when any of the above events occur and has to be
closed either at the end of the flying day or, in case the fault has not been fixed
or the maintenance activity has not been completed by then, the Part II shall be
closed when the maintenance tasks are over. If one sheet is not enough, more
shall be filled in, taking care to number them sequentially in the dedicated data
field.
NOTE
The start and the end of the flying day coincide respectively, in terms of
date and time, with the start of the first flight of the day and the end of the
last flight started in the same calendar day. In particular, If the last flight
will be flown over three calendar days, the flying day shall end at landing
date.
The Team Leader shall set up a new Part II sheet of the AVMC2 Technical
LOG, filling in blocks 1 up to 8 in a similar way to the one indicated above for
the same data fields of Part I.
In the dedicated data fields, indicate the “Nomenclature”, the “P/N” and the
“S/N” of the major configuration items installed on the AVMC2.
33. Current Status
Once Part II is completed, it is taken out from the AVMC2 Technical LOG.
Faults that were not eliminated shall be either transferred to:
11
 Part III of the AVMC2 Technical LOG; or
 The subsequent Part II of the AVMC2 Technical LOG;

based on the urgency and on the importance of the work, on the availability
of parts and equipment, special local conditions, etc.
Before the next flight, the necessary corrective measures are normally
adopted. If one or more faults marked with red symbols remain open, the
most severe symbol (defined as "dominant") shall be affixed in block 33. For
the definition and management of the symbols, refer to paragraph 2.4.1

"Specific Instructions". Only red symbols have to be placed in block 33.
Whenever the fault with the initial dominant symbol is eliminated but not all
the other red symbols, the next most severe red symbol shall be affixed in
the subsequent field of block 33, and it will then become the dominant one.
If a symbol is affixed in block 33 by mistake (i.e. there is no correspondence
with the symbols of block 39), the correction shall be made by the Technical
Officer, who shall proceed as follows:
i. (S)he shall indicate the erroneous symbol in block 39 and cross it out,
covering it with his/her initials;
ii. (S)he shall explain the error in block 40 (normally: symbol erroneously
indicated in block 33);
iii. (S)he shall indicate in block 41 the change of symbol to be made
(caption: change of symbol from ... to...);
iv. (S)he shall enter the date in the dedicated column and sign the validation
in block 42 to take responsibility for the change;
v. (S)he shall write the correct predominant red symbol in the cell following
the one of the erroneous symbol in block 33.
34. Exceptional Release to Service
An “Exceptional Release to Service” shall not be granted when there is a
(simple or circled) Red X as the dominant symbol.
An “Exceptional Release to Service” is required to utilize the AVMC2 to carry
out a flight of the UAV every time a Red Dash or a Red Diagonal appears in
block 33. The purpose of the “Exceptional Release to Service” is to certify
that the Technical Officer or the PIC, who is granting it, has carried out
thorough investigations on the faults/conditions that originated the dominant
red symbol and the other red symbols affixed in block 39 and whose
outcome is such as to justify his/her assessment that the AVMC2 can be
used to carry out the flight. “Exceptional Release to Service” for flight may be
granted only by the Technical Officer or by the PIC who conducts the flight,
with the difference that:
 The authorization granted by the Technical Officer is normally valid for an
entire flying day, except in case of a "Ferry Flight" in which it is valid solely
for the specific flight, unless a new fault emerges, which shall in any case
be submitted to him/her for evaluation. The conditions/faults that lead to
12
the granting of the authorization by the Technical Officer normally pertain

to technical aspects that are of a particular nature and/or that do not
require limitations in the employment of the AVMC2 for flight purposes.
 The Pilot's authorization, granted by the PIC, is valid only for the flight in
which (s)he participates. It is granted when the fault entails limitations to
the employment of the AVMC2 according to the evaluations and
indications expressed by the Technical Officer, but as per the Pilot’s
assessment these limitations do not compromise the performance of the
planned mission.

The authorization shall be granted by affixing the legible signature of the
person who is granting it.
In general, in granting the authorization it is mandatory always to indicate the
row of column 40 where the fault corresponding to the red symbol to which
the authorization refers has been entered. In addition, if the Technical Officer
is the one who signs, (s)he shall place the acronym TO after his/her name.
35. Next inspection
The Team Leader, in the "Insp. Type" block, enters the next inspections to
carry out and in the "Due Date/Time" block the corresponding dates when
they have to be executed and/or hours of operation of the AVMC2 by which
the next inspection or replacement shall be carried out. It is written in
black/blue ink. These data are recorded at the time Part II is set up for all
major inspections, whereas for daily inspections (e.g.: pre and post flight)
they are recorded after the inspections are carried out.
36. Times of Operation
In the data fields "Par.1", "Par.2", "Par.3", "Par.4" and "Par.5" shall be
recorded the data relating to any AVMC2 parameters to be monitored or its
components (e.g.: hours of operation of the battery, of the GCSs, for the
DUCE the relevant hours of operation), specifying the name of the parameter
(e.g.: Par.1: battery hours, GCSs hours):
 At the data field "Prev. Op." the value of the parameter before utilization of
the AVMC2;
 At the data field "Utilization Op." the utilization in relation to the parameter,
carried out during the specific utilization of the AVMC2;
 At the data field "Total Op." the sum of the values indicated in the same
line for "Prev. Op." and "Utilization Op." data fields.
37. Daily inspections
The purpose of this block is to record all those scheduled inspections/checks
that are necessary for the execution of each AVMC2 utilization (e.g.: pre and
post flight, not the 150 FH inspection).
After filling in the header fields of Part II, the Team Leader shall enter in the
"Type" data field the list of scheduled inspections/checks and in the "SME"
data field the specialty associated with them (see list in the Section related to
Block 38).
13
The subsequent data fields of block 37 shall be filled in by the Specialist/Pilot

who shall carry out the inspection/check and shall affix his/her legible
“signature” in the appropriate data field next to the inspection/check he/she
carried out. In particular, for every inspection/check carried out and recorded
in the "Type" data field, the data pertaining to the "Date" and "Time" of the
end of execution shall be recorded i.a.w. the provisions of paragraph 2.4.1, at
the end of the execution of that inspection/check, along with the “Outcome”
and any “Notes”.
NOTE

If an inspection or a check is not completed successfully, the
noted fault shall be recorded in Block 40 and the text "recorded in
Block 40" shall be entered in the data field Notes.
38. SME
For every noted fault or work to be carried out, recorded in Block 40, the
distinctive code of the involved specialty shall be entered Block 38.
The list of the identification codes of the Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) is as
follows:
01 Mechanics
03 Technical Office
05 Avionics
CIST CIS Technician
TL Team Leader
CC Maintenance Crew Chief
TO Technical Officer
PIL Pilot
SO Sensor Operator
39. Symb.
For every fault noted or work to be carried out per Block 40, the
corresponding symbol shall be recorded following the directives of paragraph
2.4.1.
When a symbol used does not match the real conditions of the AVMC2, or
the system which the item refers to, the Technical Officer, after noting the
fault, has the authority to make the change. The procedure is as follows:
 In Block 39, he/she cancels the erroneous symbol covering it with his/her
own initials;
 In the corresponding Block 41, he/she writes: “symbol changed from ... to
...” and affixes date and signature in the corresponding field;
 He/she marks the correct symbol in the first free field of Block 39, and in
the adjacent fields transcribes the specialty (Block 38) and the fault (Block
40);
 He/she updates Block 33 if necessary.
14
When the Red Dash is placed in Block 39 (planned work to be carried out),
this symbol can be crossed out only after completing the required work or as
a result of a waiver authorized by a Service Bulletin. In this case, the Red
Dash shall be closed referencing, in Block 41, the waiving Service Bulletin
and the favorable outcomes of any checks/inspections required by that
Service Bulletin. The scheduled work will then be rewritten in the next free
data field, placing the Black Dash as a symbol and also indicating the terms
of validity of the waiver in Block 40. In this case, the transcription may be
entered in Part III of the AVMC2 Technical LOG. At the expiration of the

granted waiver, the symbol shall be changed again, returning to the Red
Dash in Part II of the AVMC2 Technical LOG.
40. Fault Report/Work Details
Block 40 shall be filled in as follows:
 Every fault noted at any time by a Specialist/Pilot shall be described
appropriately and concisely in this block;
 As soon as an inspection expires, an annotation shall be placed in this
block, e.g.: "Battery P/N UPA13498 S/N 1308 expired". In this case, as for
the expiration of a Service Bulletin/Airworthiness Directives, this
annotation may also be entered by the Technical Officer or by the
Technical Office as well as by the Specialist and by the Pilot after Part III
and IV acknowledgment;
 When an accessory is replaced, an appropriate annotation shall be placed
in this block, specifying the reason for this replacement (e.g.: part to be
used as a spare part on another aircraft);
 When a maintenance (even a scheduled inspection) is performed;
 Every time an Airworthiness Directive or Service Bulletin is received that
involves the AVMC2 for "Immediate, Urgent or Routine" action – when its
missed introduction within the prescribed times results in a suspension
from the service of the material concerned – the number, date and title of
the AD or SB shall be entered in this block;
 Every time there is an incident at the AVMC2, the causes and the extent of
the damage shall briefly be annotated in this block;
 After each utilization the Pilot/Specialist shall report in this block all the
faults (one per data field) arose during the utilization, followed by his/her
signature; any other fault noted by the Pilot/Specialist shall be entered in
the next data field. In case everything went well during the utilization of the
AVMC2, the annotation of the Crew Chief shall be: "utilization OK";
 If a serviceable item has to be removed temporarily from the AVMC2, to
carry out any kind of work, the acronym E.T.R. (Equipment Temporary
Removed) shall be written next to the description of the removal.
For each entry transcribed in this block, the relevant "date and Signature"
and “’Work Order (WO) #” (if any) shall be filled in by the compiler.
15
41. Corrective Actions

Each fault recorded or work to be carried out in Block 40 shall be matched,
on this Block, by a corrective action taken. This can be one of the following:
description of the work carried out to solve the fault or execution of the
scheduled maintenance. (e.g.: "Replaced battery S/N 1308 with similar
serviceable battery S/N 1306"). If an item is replaced, it is mandatory to
enter the P/N and, if the item is serialized, the S/N. In the "Man Hours"
field, enter the time needed (in man-hours and man-minutes) to complete
the work, but only when the Fault Report/Work Details transcribed in Block

40 is fixed/completed.
 If the fault is not severe and thus its resolution is not urgent, with the
approval of the Technical Officer, it can:
a) be postponed to the following day, in this case "CARRIED
FORWARD" shall be written in Block 41;
b) be postponed to the next available opportunity, in this case the reason
why the work cannot be carried out, and the text "TRANSFERRED TO
PART III", shall be entered in Block 41. In this case, the fault is
transcribed on Part III of the AVMC2 Technical LOG.
In cases "a" and "b", the field "MAN HOURS" shall be crossed out.
Every time there is an entry in Block 41, the “date” and the “signature” of the
Specialist shall be entered next to it. If the work carried out (described in
Block 41) eliminates the fault transcribed in Block 40, the Specialist that
performed the work shall place his/her initials on the corresponding symbol in
Block 39. Upon closing Part II, any unresolved fault shall be entered in the
new Part II or in Part III of the AVMC2 Technical LOG. The decision to entry
it in the new Part II or to Part III will be taken on case by case basis based on
the urgency and on the importance of the work, on the availability of parts
and equipment, etc.
42. Validating Signature
The signature of the Technical Officer in this Block certifies that the
corresponding actions were carried out by licensed and qualified personnel.
It is needed in the following cases:
a) Transfer of the work to Part III of the AVMC2 Technical LOG;
b) Maintenance work execution which was marked with a Red X or a
Circled Red X.
If the corrective actions are performed by the Company, the validation shall
be signed by responsible personnel specifically authorized by the Company
itself.
 Notes
The field is reserved to the recording of any notes. In particular:
 The field "Page ___ out of ___" shall be filled in only if it was necessary
to use several sheets of Part II to record the data relating to a same
utilization/maintenance.
16

transferred on to Part III. The decision has to be taken on case by case basis,
based on the urgency and on the importance of the activity, on the availability of
parts and equipment, special local conditions, etc.
In any case if a corrective action is deferred by few days, it shall be transcribed
in the new Part II of the AVMC2 Technical LOG until the related work is
performed. If the execution of the work is expected to be delayed by several
days, then the annotation shall be entered in Part III of the AVMC2 Technical
LOG.
No fault marked with Red X, Circled Red X, Red Dash, Red Diagonal and in
general, any measure that cannot be postponed, shall be transcribed in Part III.
Some examples for which a fault shall not be transferred to Part III of the
AVMC2 Technical LOG are provided below:
a) Airworthiness Directive/Service Bulletins concerning Flight Safety
(Urgent and Immediate action);
b) Need to replace a part not in Stock, important for Flight Safety.
The transcription of a fault in Part III shall always be reviewed and approved by
the Technical Officer, whose rank, last name written in block letters and legible
signature shall be entered in Block 46 "Annotation approved by". Upon reaching
a major inspection, all the existing faults in Part III shall be transferred in Part II
and the sheets of Part III shall be taken out and handed over to the Technical
Office.
After the inspection, a new recording cycle shall be started.
43. SME
For every fault recorded in Block 45, the distinctive code of the involved
specialty shall be entered, as it was already entered in Block 38 of Part II.
44. Symb.
For each fault recorded in Block 45, the corresponding symbol shall be
recorded following the instructions of paragraph 2.4.1, as it was already
entered in Block 39 of Part II.

When it can be defined, indicate the date and time until which the
authorization is valid; if it cannot be defined, indicate the conditions (e.g.:
upon receipt of material).
48. Date entered in Part II
The date on which the fault is again entered in Part II of the AVMC2
Technical LOG is recorded, because the time to carry out the work has
arrived. In Part II of the AVMC2 Technical LOG of that day, Blocks 38, 39
and 40 shall be filled in.
Once the AVMC2 Technical LOG is complete, the unresolved faults recorded
in Part III shall be transcribed in the Part III of the new AVMC2 Technical
LOG, in this Block shall be entered the sentence as follows: “transferred to
Part III of the next AVMC2 Technical LOG”.
 AVMC2 TECHNICAL LOG - Part IV

This Part contains information about the inspections and the operating
instructions/employment limitations applicable to the AVMC2.
The Team Leader shall set up a Part IV sheet in each AVMC2 Technical LOG
and shall fill in the data fields 1 and 2 similarly to the same data fields as Part I,
II and III. Until the end of the AVMC2 Technical LOG, all the Part IV sheets
necessary for recording the specific information described below shall be
added, taking care to number them sequentially in the dedicated data field 3
(see Part I block 3).
Once the AVMC2 Technical LOG is completed the data recorded in Part IV
shall be transcribed in the Part IV of the new AVMC2 Technical LOG. The Part
IV sheets containing only deleted “Operating Instructions – Caution –
Employment Limitations” (block 53) and “Scheduled Maintenance” (Block 55)
transcribed back to Part II shall be taken out from the LOG and archived at the
responsible Technical Office. In this case even any data field still blank of “Audit
Log” (Block 54) shall be crossed out, signed and dated by the Technical Officer.
18
The data to fill in the blocks of Part IV shall be obtained from the approved
Technical Publications of the AVMC2. If modifications are made to the
characteristics reported therein, a new Part IV sheet shall be set up, entering
the related changes and reporting all the “Operating Instructions – Caution –
still open. In this case any data field on the previous Part IV still blank of “Audit
When the AVMC2 Technical LOG, and with it the related Part IV, is set up, the
Team Leader shall fill in the blocks from 49 through 52 as follows:

49. Electrical Power Supply

53. Operating Instructions - Cautions – Employment Limitations
In this block, the Technical Officer shall enter the AVMC2 (and/or its parts)
Airworthiness Directives/Service Bulletins that entail operating instructions
and/or cautions for the Personnel operating in the AVMC2. In it shall also be
highlighted all information which the Technical Officer considers necessary to
provide to the Personnel for a correct and safe operation of both AVMC2 and
UAV.
In the respective data fields “No. Seq.", “Ref. Doc.” and “Description” shall be
entered the sequential number, the identifying information of the reference
document and the description of the operating instructions/cautions/
limitations with relevant W.O. if any.
The Technical Officer shall approve the record of the operating
instructions/cautions/limitations, dating and signing the appropriate data field
“Approval (Date and Signature)”. In case one of the operating
instructions/cautions/limitations is no longer applicable, the Technical Officer
shall cross it out, dating and signing the respective data field “Deletion (Date
and Signature”.
54. Audit LOG (Date and Signature)
Constant oversight is necessary throughout the entire maintenance process,
along with careful supervision both filling in the AVMC2 Technical LOG and
performing the work. Audits are performed with different criteria, according to
the competence of those who carry them out (Technical Officer and Higher
Authority). The signatures affixed in this data field certify completion of the
19
audit and any corrective action taken, when necessary and recorded in a
dedicated form. Therefore, there is also a data field dedicated for the
signature of a Higher Authority whenever it carries out the audit. The
Technical Officer shall periodically monitor the upkeep of the AVMC2
Technical LOG. Audits are at his/her sole discretion, but they shall be carried
out at least once a month.
55. Scheduled Maintenance
The purpose of this block is to indicate, at any time, the current situation of
scheduled inspections and, hour-based and calendar-based replacements of

the various parts and/or of the AVMC2 itself.
This block lists the checks that shall take place at provided time intervals, not
shown in the Periodic Inspection Certificate, regardless of the hours of
operation completed. In particular:
a) "Subject of the Insp./Repl.": identifies the type of work to be carried out,
whose scheduled expiration date is not shown in the Periodic Inspection
Certificate and the involved material indicating the P/N and S/N;
b) "Frequency": the time interval between two inspections of the part shall
be shown, in terms of days and/or months and/or operating hours;
c) "Due Date/Time": the date and/or hours of operation of the AVMC2 by
which the next inspection or replacement shall be carried out is written in
black/blue ink. Once the inspection or replacement is completed, the
Specialist who performed the operation shall use a new line to record the
next due date/time of the same inspection/replacement. At the expiration
of the terms prescribed for the performance of a special inspection or for
the replacement of the item listed therein, the work required (inspection
or replacement) shall be transcribed in Part II. The value shown in the
"Due Date/Time" data field shall be crossed out leaving it still legible, if
the Technical Officer decides to postpone the work using the tolerance
within the limits indicated in the next data field. In this case, the new due
date/time recalculated using the tolerance shall be entered in the data
field "Tolerance Due Date/Time";
d) "Max Tolerance": when provided, indicate the max tolerance relating to
the Due Date/Time of the inspection/replacement (e.g.: 10%, 10 days, 10
cycles, 20 Flight Hours, etc.);
e) "Tolerance Due Date/time": as indicated above ("Due Date/Time" data
field), this data field shall be filled in only if the Technical Officer decides
to postpone the work using a tolerance within the limits indicated in the
next data field.
When the first AVMC2 Technical LOG is set up, all data about scheduled
maintenance, with the exception of the "Tolerance Due Date/Time", shall be
filled in by the Technical Office. After the set up of the first LOG, the
"scheduled maintenance" of Part IV shall be filled in/updated by specialists.
20
The "Tolerance Due Date/Time" data field shall always be filled in by the
Technical Officer i.a.w. point “e”.
NOTE
Since the list of scheduled maintenance is the same for every
AVMC2, when proceeding to printout the AVMC2 Technical LOG
according to the procedures of paragraph 2.3, Part IV could be
printed out with the list already entered in the "Subject of the
Inspection/Replacement" data field and with the "Frequency" and
"Max Tolerance” data fields already filled in. In this case, the

Technical Officer shall still be responsible for checking the pre-
printed data and indicating the specific due dates/times.
2.4.1. Specific Instructions
SYMBOLOGY
The main function of the AVMC2 Technical LOG is to present at all times the
status of the AVMC2 with regard to its ability to conduct the flight. For this
purpose, special symbols are established to immediately provide the aforesaid
information.
 Red X ( X )
With this symbol, the AVMC2 shall not be employed for flight operations. It
warns that the AVMC2 is not capable of conducting a flight or is in such
conditions that flight would be dangerous because of the extent of the problems
noted.
A Red X is affixed as soon as an Airworthiness Directive or an "Immediate"
Service Bulletin is received which requires the completion, prior to the next
flight, of operations applicable to that AVMC2 or to its parts.
The corrective actions performed to eliminate the conditions that had led to the
Red X shall be validated by the Technical Officer or, when the corrective
actions are performed by Company, the validation shall be performed by
responsible personnel specifically authorized by the Company itself.
The validation of Red X elimination shall be certified with a signature in block 42
of Part II “Validating Signature”, next to the signature of the personnel who
carried out the action.
This signature certifies:
- that the assessment process has been supervised and any corrective actions
have been agreed with the specialists
- the subsequently verification of the corrective actions successful introduction.
An “Exceptional Release to Service” to conduct the flight shall not be granted
when the AVMC2 is marked with a Red X.
 Circled Red X ( )
This symbol has to be used when the AVMC2 shall not be employed to conduct
the flight, awaiting compliance with an "Urgent" Service Bulletin whose
21
established time limits have expired. For this symbol, the same provisions of the
previous point, concerning the validation signature, shall apply. An “Exceptional
Release to Service” to conduct the flight may not be granted when the AVMC2
is marked with a circled Red X.
 Red Dash ( — )
This symbol has to be used when a work (inspection, maintenance, change of
an item upon reaching its operating limit, etc.) has not been carried out yet,
although the execution times according to the applicable standard have expired.
The status of the AVMC2 is not well known, because the work that can exactly

define the conditions of the AVMC2 and of its accessories has not been carried
out. Therefore, to conduct a flight with an AVMC2 marked with Red Dash, an
“Exceptional Release to Service” is required, which may be granted only by the
Technical Officer for technical deficiency, or by the Pilot for operational
deficiency that do not compromise the safety of flight, but limits the AVMC2 in
some conditions.
 Red Diagonal ( ⁄ )
This symbol has to be used when a deficiency was noted on the AVMC2, but
without the level of severity indicated with the Red X. In any case, an
“Exceptional Release to Service” is required to employ the AVMC2 in the
conduct of a flight. A Red Diagonal is affixed when an "Urgent" Service Bulletin
is received which refers to that AVMC2 or to its parts. If the aforesaid Service
Bulletin requires the execution of operations within determined time intervals (in
hours of flight/operation and/or in calendar terms), at the expiration of which the
AVMC2 is no longer fit to be employed for flight, when these due dates/times
are reached the recording of the Service Bulletin shall be marked with the
circled Red X.
 Black Dash ( — )
This symbol has to be used when a scheduled maintenance work (inspection -
overhaul - replacement of parts etc.) was not carried out in accordance with the
prescribed due date/time but a regulation postpones its application if specific
checks and/or inspections are successfully performed. This symbol is also used
when recording an inspection and/or replacement of parts and/or Routine
Service Bulletin to be carried out, whose execution due date/time has not yet
expired.
 Black Diagonal ( / )
This symbol indicates that a defect has been observed on the AVMC2, which
does not jeopardize the serviceability of the AVMC2 in order to conduct the
flight.
TIMES
All times shall be indicated in hours and minute ZULU expressed as decimal
according to the conversion table in the instruction sheets. These data shall be
22
read on the instruments of the UAS; in the absence of such instruments, the timing
shall be requested to the tower while the utilization data of the RCSS and of the
UAV shall be taken by a clock present in the station itself throughout the utilization.
In any case, if the configuration includes a system capable of automatically
measuring the times and/or the duration of the flight and/or the hours of
flight/operation, then the times and/or the duration of the flight and/or the hours of
operation/flight measured by the system itself shall be recorded in the appropriate
squares.
In addition, all dates to be recorded shall be i.a.w. ZULU time. (dd/mm/yyyy)

2.5 AVMC2 Technical LOG Storage
During utilization/flight/maintenance, the AVMC2 Technical LOG shall be stored in
the AVMC2 itself. If different AVMC2 are used during a same flight, the AVMC2
Technical LOG shall in any case remain in the AVMC2 to which it refers.
At the end of utilization/flight/maintenance, the Parts of the AVMC2 Technical LOG
shall be stored as follows:
 PART I:
At the end of the flight, the relevant sheet shall be handed over to the
Operations Office after transcribing the necessary data (e.g.: hours flown during
the flight) in the UAV Technical LOG block 20 of Part II relating to the same
flight;
For flights carried out by the Manufacturer/Overhaul Company, the Parts I shall
be retained by the Company and placed in the record together with the other
documentation of work of the specific AVMC2.
 PART II
At the end of utilization/maintenance, the relevant sheet shall be taken out from
the insert of the Technical LOG, after entering in the subsequent Part II and/or
III sheet any maintenance operations/overhauls to be performed, and it is
delivered to the office in charge of controlling and storing such sheets.
If the AVMC2 is suspended from operations for the execution of inspections
and/or the elimination of faults, the same Part II sheet shall be utilized until the
AVMC2 returned to operations. The aforesaid office shall maintain for each
AVMC2 a file where all Part II sheets shall be stored, to provide documentation
of the maintenance work carried out on the same AVMC2.
For maintenance work carried out by the Manufacturer/Overhaul Company, Part
II sheets shall initially be retained and filled in by the Company. Part II sheets
shall be returned to NAGSF with the delivery of the AVMC2.
 PART III
Part III sheets shall remain in the AVMC2 Technical LOG in use, with the
exception of those closed following an inspection (all entries in Part III have
been transferred to Part II) which shall be taken out and stored in the office in
charge of controlling and storing such sheets. When a new AVMC2 Technical
23
LOG is set up, the Part III sheets present in the old LOG (e.g.: deferred
corrective measures not yet carried out) shall be entered in the new one.
 PART IV
Part IV sheets shall remain in the AVMC2 Technical LOG in use, with the
exception of the closed ones (all entries in Part IV were transferred to Part II or
to a new Part IV) which shall be taken out and stored in the office in charge of
controlling and storing such sheets. When a new AVMC2 Technical LOG is set
up, the Part IV sheets present in the old LOG (e.g.: still active operating
instruction) shall be entered in the new one.

All the AVMC2 Technical LOGs and the related Parts shall be stored in a manner
that ensures protection from damage, alteration and theft. They shall remain
readable and accessible for the duration of the storage period. In particular, the
Technical LOG shall be stored at least for 10 years and in such a way that it can
be consulted, even after the retirement from the line of the NATO AGS RQ-4D Air
Segment. If during storage period any controversy arise, the above mentioned
period will become effective from the end of the controversy.
Access to the Technical LOGs by DAAA and Competent Body shall be granted by
NAGSF upon request.
3. UAV TECHNICAL LOG – FORM DP-5069/RQ-

4D/UAV
The following paragraph describes the UAV Technical LOG.
Paragraph 4 provides the facsimile for UAV Technical LOG.
3.1 UAV Technical LOG Description

The Technical LOG of the UAV consists of the Parts described below. Each Part
of the LOG consists of various blocks identified by a number.
The UAV Technical LOG contains:
- A cover/instruction sheet;
- The three Parts described below.
NOTE
Part I is not present in the UAV Technical LOG because the crew carries
out its activities not aboard the UAV but directly in the AVMC2 whose LOG
already comprises the Part I where the flight data are recorded.
 PART II "UAV OPERATIONS, INSPECTIONS AND MAINTENANCE LOG"

It contains a continuous record of:
a. The position of the UAV and of its status (airworthy or no airworthy) with
particular reference to the data necessary to identify the responsibilities for
the airworthiness of the UAV;
24
b. The status of the UAV with regard to the applicable inspections performed
or to be carried out, including scheduled inspections not executed at
proper time;
c. All faults, deficiencies or inefficiencies noted on the UAV, as well as of the
related corrective actions taken, including faults that have no influence on
the airworthy of the UAV and whose corrective action can be deferred to
the earliest opportunity;
d. The total operation Hours: UAV Flight hours and Engine hours;
e. The servicing carried out concerning the fuel, lubricant and coolant, and

the condition of the UAV with regard to the aforesaid refills.
Generally, one sheet of Part II is filled in for each flight carried out by the
UAV. Part II is one sheet consisting of a "front" side (Part II.F) and a "rear"
side (Part II.R).
 PART III "LIST OF UAV DEFERRED CORRECTIVE ACTIONS"

It contains a continuous record of the faults that have no influence on the
airworthiness of the UAV and whose elimination can be deferred to the first
earliest maintenance opportunity or scheduled inspection. In this Part, the
scheduled inspection/maintenance and service bulletins not carried out by
the scheduled date are also recorded, only when the positive outcome of
dedicated checks and/or inspections, foreseen by a TP, allow for their
deferral. Part III is one a sheet consisting of a "front" side (Part III.F) and a
"rear" side (Part III.R).
 PART IV "UAV GENERAL CHARACTERISTIC DATA"

This Part contains:
a. The characteristic data of the UAV;
b. The UAV/Engine’s calendar and hourly maintenance schedule and its
accessories (when an accessory has been replaced, part IV shall be
updated as well);
c. Operating instructions, cautions, and/or operational limitations with
reference to (w.r.t.) one or more of the following cases:
- Introduction or not of changes that could interfere with operational
activities;
- Activation or deactivation of specific equipment;
- Faults for which the resolution has already been deferred to the earliest
opportunity, as reported in Part III.
d. The record of the inspections made on the LOG.
Part IV is one sheet consisting of a "front" side (Part IV.F) and a "rear" side
(Part IV.R).
The UAV Technical LOG shall contain 30 sheets of Part II and the necessary
sheets of Part III and Part IV associated with them. The Part III and IV sheets shall
be inserted after the last sheet of Part II. Both the LOG and the sheets of Part II, III
25
and IV are provided by a sequential numbering field as described in paragraph 3.4

"Filling out the UAV Technical LOG". Each UAV Technical LOG is defined as
concluded when the thirtieth sheet of Part II is filled in.
3.2 UAV Technical LOG first set up

The activity of associating a Technical LOG to a specific UAV is indicated with the
term "set up" and it consists of recording for the first time the characteristic data of
the UAV to which the Technical LOG refers (Type, Experimental Tail Number -
Military Registration Number, current use etc.). These data represents the status
of the UAV in relation to the activity carried out before set up.

The first LOG to be associated to the UAV recorded in the Military Aircraft
Register, shall be set up by the NAGSF no later than the tender for acceptance
and in any case before the first flight under the responsibility of the NAGSF, on the
basis of the data provided by the SDR. In relation to these data, the NAGSF is
responsible solely for transcribing them onto the LOG. The original documentation
of the SDR shall be retained by the NAGSF together with the LOG – i.a.w. the
same time constraints – but shall not be updated. Once a LOG is completed,
NAGSF shall set up the subsequent LOG relating to the same UAV.
In particular, who set up the LOG shall fill in all the fields in the cover and the
progressive numbering of each sheet of Part II.
NOTE
The activities of the UAV carried out before the first set up of the Technical
LOG, shall be contained in dedicated documents, which may have a
different format from the LOG itself. Once the Technical LOG is set up, the
documentation containing all information about the activity carried out
previously, shall be stored by who set up the Technical LOG with the
same procedures/times as the LOG, and shall be available for DAAA and
Competent Body at all times.
3.3 UAV Technical LOG Reproduction

NAGSF is authorized to use the faithful reproduction of the printouts of the UAV
Technical LOG shown in paragraph 4 of this regulation. In any case, each
individual UAV Technical LOG shall contain a number of sheets i.a.w. the
provisions of paragraph 3.1 and be printed on both sides in such a way as to have
a sheet containing on the "front" side the cover and on the "rear" side the
instruction, the sheets of Part II consisting of the front side "Part II.F" and of the
rear side "Part II.R", and similarly for the sheets of Part III and IV.
3.4 UAV Technical LOG Filling In

To fill in the UAV Technical LOG, follow the instructions provided below. All
entries, with the exception of signatures, shall be made written in block letters, for
best clarity and legibility, and with a blue or black pen (indelible ink), unless
otherwise specified herein.
26
Any corrections shall be made with a red pen and initialed, in manner that the
original entry remains readable. Descriptions shall be precise and concise: when
necessary, use more than one line or multiple pages of the same type to obtain
the utmost precision of expression.
NOTE
Before each mission, the crew shall review the status of the UAV in terms of
the airworthy and limitations/operating instructions of Part IV.
The detailed instructions for filling in all the Parts of the UAV Technical LOG are
provided below:

 COVER
The Technical LOG cover shall be filled in by who set up the LOG, completing
the following fields:
 P/N
Part Number (P/N) of the UAV to which the LOG refers. If, during the
employment of the UAV, modifications that change the P/N are introduced,
maintaining the same serial number, in the LOG in use at that time, but not
necessarily in the subsequent ones, both the old and the new P/N shall be
indicated. In any case, the numbering of the LOG referred to the new UAV
P/N shall continue from that of the LOGs associated with the same UAV
Serial Number (S/N) of the old P/N.
 S/N
Serial Number (S/N) of the UAV to which the LOG refers to.
 MRN
Numerical part of the UAV Military Registration Number (MRN) at the time
the LOG is set up. In particular, if the number of the UAV at the time of the
setting up, is an Experimental Tail Number (e.g.: X-AV-SA-0001), on the
cover shall be shown only the numerical part (e.g.: MRN: 0001). The
information of the registration status of the UAV in the Military Aircraft
Register (Experimental Tail Number or MRN) can be found in the sheets of
Part II.
 LOG no.
Number of the UAV Technical LOG. For each UAV, the numbering of the
LOG shall be sequential.
 UAV TECHNICAL LOG - Part II

A Part II sheet is filled in, in case:
a) any UAV flight;
b) any UAV fault raises;
c) any UAV maintenance activity is executed.
27
A Part II sheet of the UAV Technical LOG is filled in for each flight of the UAV. If
one sheet is not enough, more shall be filled in, taking care to number them
sequentially in the dedicated data field.
The Maintenance Crew Chief or Team Leader shall set up a new Part II sheet
of the UAV Technical LOG, filling in boxes 1 up to 8.
1. MDS
Mission Design Series (MDS) followed by “/UAV” (i.e.; RQ-4D/UAV).
2. EN/MRN

Block dedicated to recording the Experimental Tail Number (EN) or the MRN
associated with the UAV. In this field, the alphanumeric code shall be
indicated, rather than just the numerical part of the number shown in the
cover (e.g.; EN: X-AV-SA-0001).
3. LOG no. - Sheet no.
The "LOG no." data field is dedicated to recording the number of the UAV
Technical LOG being used. This number matches the one shown in the
cover of the subject LOG. In the field “Sheet no.", the number of the Part II
sheet being used shall be recorded. For each UAV Technical LOG, the
numbering of the Part II pages shall be sequential (e.g.; LOG no.: 2018 - Sheet
no.:1).
NOTE
If additional sheets (front and/or back pages) are required to be
added, the sheet number should be followed by a sequential letter.
(e.g.; LOG no.: 2018 - Sheet no.:1A, 1B, 1C, etc.)
4. Date
Opening and closing date of Part II. This calendar date (dd/mm/yyyy)
normally coincides with the start of a flight or an inspection/maintenance,
whichever occurs first. Similarly, the calendar date of the end of the flight or
the ending date of the last inspection/maintenance, whichever ends later,
shall be entered into the second line of block 4.
5. Maintenance Crew Chief
Rank or duties, last name and first name of the Maintenance Crew Chief
responsible for the UAV.
6. Unit
By default “NAGSF”.
7. Location (ICAO)
By default, the ICAO code “LICZ”.
8. Sortie n.
Identifying number of the flight.
9. Next Inspection
The Team Leader, in the "Type of Insp" block, enters the next inspections to
carry out and in the corresponding "Due Date/Time" block:
28
 The hours of the UAV on the due time of these inspections; or

 The date in case of calendar due date.
These data are recorded at the time Part II is set up for all major inspections,
whereas for daily inspections (e.g.: pre and post flight) they are recorded
after the inspections are carried out.
10.Optional Equipment
In the white data field of block 10 above the "YES"/"NO" field shall be
entered the description of the optional equipment that as per approved
technical publications could be either installed or not.

Before the flight, the Maintenance Crew Chief shall verify the presence of the
optional equipment and shall cross out "YES" or "NO".
11.Current status
Once Part II is completed, it is taken out from the UAV Technical LOG. Faults
that were not eliminated shall be either transferred to:
 Part III of the UAV Technical LOG; or
 The subsequent Part II of the UAV Technical LOG;
based on the urgency and on the importance of the work, on the availability
of parts and equipment, special local conditions, etc.
Before the next flight, the necessary corrective measures are normally
adopted. If one or more faults marked with red symbols remain open, the
most severe symbol (defined as "dominant") shall be affixed in block 11. For
the definition and management of the symbols, refer to paragraph 3.4.1
"Specific Instructions".
Only red symbols have to be placed in block 11. Whenever the fault with the
initial dominant symbol is eliminated but not all the other red symbols, the
next most severe red symbol shall be affixed in the subsequent field of block
10, and it will then become the dominant one.
If a symbol is affixed in block 11 by mistake (i.e. there is no correspondence
with the symbols of block 23), the correction shall be made by the Technical
Officer, who shall proceed as follows:
i. (S)he shall indicate the erroneous symbol in block 23 and cross it out,
covering it with his/her initials;
ii. (S)he shall explain the error in block 24 (normally: symbol erroneously
indicated in block 11);
iii. (S)he shall indicate in block 25 the change of symbol to be made
(caption: change of symbol from ... to...);
iv. (S)he shall enter the date in the dedicated column and sign the validation
in block 26 to take responsibility for the change;
v. (S)he shall write the correct predominant red symbol in the cell following
the one of the erroneous symbol in block 11.
29
12.Exceptional Release to Service

An “Exceptional Release to Service” shall not be granted when there is a
(simple or circled) Red X as the dominant symbol.
An “Exceptional Release to Service” is required to carry out a flight of the
UAV every time a Red Dash or a Red Diagonal appears in block 11.
The purpose of the “Exceptional Release to Service” is to certify that the
Technical Officer or the PIC, who is granting it, has carried out thorough
investigations on the faults/conditions that originated the dominant red
symbol and the other red symbols affixed in block 23 and whose outcome is
such as to justify his/her assessment that the UAV can fly. “Exceptional

Release to Service” for flight may be granted only by the Technical Officer or
by the PIC who conducts the flight, with the difference that:
 The authorization granted by the Technical Officer is normally valid for an
entire flying day, except in case of a "Ferry Flight" in which it is valid solely
for the specific flight, unless a new fault emerges, which shall in any case
be submitted to him/her for evaluation. The conditions/faults that lead to
the granting of the authorization by the Technical Officer normally pertain
to technical aspects that are of a particular nature and/or that do not
require limitations in the employment of the UAV.
NOTE
In particular cases, e.g. the flights for ferrying the UAV to the
Company or to another unit, even if the fault requires limitations in
the employment of the UAV, the Technical Officer may authorize
solely the ferry flight. In this case, at the recording of the fault, the
Technical Officer shall indicate in column 25: "only the ferry flight
is authorized" and in case of specific cautions/limitations for the
flight (s)he shall add "for the condition, the Pilot shall refer to block
38 of Part IV of the UAV Technical LOG". (S)he shall then date
and sign the appropriate column.
In these cases, the symbol of column 23 shall not be crossed out.
At the end of the ferry flight, Part II of the UAV Technical LOG
shall be taken out from the LOG and the aforesaid symbol and the
indication of the fault shall be recorded in the new Part II of the
UAV Technical LOG.
 The Pilot's authorization, granted by the PIC, is valid only for the flight in
which (s)he participates. It is granted when the fault entails limitations to
the employment of the UAV according to the evaluations and indications
expressed by the Technical Officer, but as per the Pilot’s assessment
these limitations do not compromise the performance of the planned
mission.
The authorization shall be granted by affixing the legible signature of the
person who is granting it.
30
In general, in granting the authorization it is mandatory always to indicate the

row of column 24 where the fault corresponding to the red symbol to which
the authorization refers has been entered. In addition, if the Technical Officer
is the one who signs, (s)he shall place the acronym M/O (Maintenance
Officer) after his/her name.
13.Engine Oil Servicing
The Specialist shall indicate a “Ref. No” (e.g.: 1°, 2°…), the "Type/Cart
Number" of oil serviced, its quantity expressed in "Pounds", the "Location
(ICAO)", and shall sign the field "Performed by".

or “Drain”, recording the relevant progressive number (“Prog.”), the fuel
grade (“Grade”) and the quantity expressed in pounds (“Pounds”).
After a fuel refills/draining, the specialist shall sign and dated the field
"Inspected by (date and signature)" and enters the location (“Location
(ICAO)”).
The specialist shall also fill in, the field “Inspected by (date and signature)”
after a flight or a “weight & balance” check.
The field “In the Tank” shall provide the actual fuel quantity in the tank and
shall be entered by the specialist at the end of each line. The value reported
in the last line shall be recorded in the first line of the same field “In the Tank”
of the next Part II.

21.Daily inspections
The purpose of this block is to record all those scheduled inspections/checks
that are necessary for the execution of each UAV flight (e.g.: pre and post
flight, not the 150 FH inspection).
After filling in the header fields of Part II, the Team Leader shall enter in the
"Type" data field the list of scheduled inspections/checks and in the "SME"
data field the specialty associated with them (see list in the Section related to
Block 38 of AVMC2 Technical LOG).
The subsequent data fields of block 21 shall be filled in by the Specialist/Pilot
who shall carry out the inspection/check and shall affix his/her legible
“signature” in the appropriate data field next to the inspection/check he/she
carried out. In particular, for every inspection/check carried out and recorded
in the "Type" data field the data pertaining to the "Date" and "Time" of the
end of execution shall be recorded i.a.w. the provisions of paragraph 3.4.1, at
the end of the execution of that inspection/check, along with the “outcome”
and any “notes”.
NOTE
If an inspection or a check is not completed successfully, the
noted fault shall be recorded in Block 24 and the text "recorded in
Block 24" shall be entered in the data field Notes.

distinctive code of the involved specialty shall be entered Block 22.
For the list of the distinctive codes of the SMEs, refer to block 38 of Part II of
the AVMC2 Technical LOG
33
23.Symb.
For every fault noted or work to be carried out per Block 24, the
corresponding symbol shall be recorded following the directives of paragraph
3.4.1.
When a symbol used does not match the real conditions of the UAV, or the
system which the item refers to, the Technical Officer, after noting the fault,
has the authority to make the change. The procedure is as follows:
- In Block 23, he/she cancels the erroneous symbol covering it with his/her
own initials;
- In the corresponding Block 25, he/she writes: “symbol changed from ... to

...” and affixes date and signature in the corresponding field;
- He/she marks the correct symbol in the first free field of Block 23, and in
the adjacent fields transcribes the specialty (Block 22) and the fault (Block
24);
- He/she updates Block 11 if necessary.
When the Red Dash is placed in Block 23 (planned work to be carried out),
this symbol can be crossed out only after completing the required work or as
a result of a waiver authorized by a Service Bulletin. In this case, the Red
Dash shall be closed referencing, in Block 25, the waiving Service Bulletin
and the favorable outcomes of any checks/inspections required by that
Service Bulletin.The scheduled work will then be rewritten in the next free
data field, placing the Black Dash as a symbol and also indicating the terms
of validity of the waiver in Block 24. In this case, the transcription may be
entered in Part III of the UAV Technical LOG. At the expiration of the granted
waiver, the symbol shall be changed again, returning to the Red Dash in Part
II of the UAV Technical LOG.
24.Fault Report/work Details
Block 24 shall be filled in as follows:
- Every fault noted at any time by a Specialist/Pilot shall be described
appropriately and concisely in this block;
- As soon as an inspection expires, an annotation shall be placed in this
block, e.g.: "Battery P/N UPA13498 S/N 1308 expired". In this case, as for
the expiration of a Service Bulletin/Airworthiness Directive, this annotation
may also be entered by the Technical Officer or by the Technical Office as
well as by the Specialist and by the Pilot after Part III and IV
acknowledgment;
- When an accessory is replaced, an appropriate annotation shall be placed
in this block, specifying the reason for this replacement (e.g.: part to be
used as a spare part on another aircraft);
- When a maintenance (even a scheduled inspection) is performed;
- Every time an Airworthiness Directive or Service Bulletin is received that
involves the UAV for "Immediate, Urgent or Routine" action when its
missed introduction within the prescribed times results in a suspension
34
from the service of the material concerned – the number, date and title of
the AD or SB shall be entered in this block;
- Every time there is an incident at the UAV, the causes and the extent of
the damage shall briefly be annotated in this block;
- After each utilization the Pilot/Specialist shall report in this block all the
faults (one per data field) arose during the utilization, followed by his/her
signature; any other fault noted by the Pilot/Specialist shall be entered in
the next data field. In case everything went well during the utilization of the
UAV, the annotation of the Crew Chief shall be: "utilization OK";

- If a serviceable item has to be removed temporarily from the UAV, to carry
out any kind of work, the acronym E.T.R. (Equipment Temporary
Removed) shall be written next to the description of the removal.
For each entry transcribed in this block, the relevant "date and Signature"
and “’Work Order (WO) #” (if any) shall be filled out by the compiler.
25.Corrective Actions
Each fault recorded or work to be carried out in Block 24 shall be matched,
on this Block, by a corrective action taken. This can be one of the following:
- description of the work carried out to solve the fault or execution of the
scheduled maintenance. (e.g.: "Replaced battery S/N 1308 with similar
serviceable battery S/N 1306").
If an item is replaced, it is mandatory to enter the P/N and, if the item is
serialized, the S/N. In the "Man Hours" field, enter the time needed (in
man-hours and man-minutes) to complete the work, but only when the
Fault Report/work Details transcribed in Block 24 is fixed/completed.
- If the fault is not severe and thus its resolution is not urgent, with the
approval of the Technical Officer, it can:
a) be postponed to the following day, in which case "Carried Forward"
shall be written in Block 25;
b) be postponed to the next available opportunity, in which case the
reason why the work cannot be carried out, and the text "Transferred
To Part III", shall be entered in Block 25. In this case, the fault is
transcribed on Part III of the UAV Technical LOG.
In cases "a" and "b", the field "Man Hours" shall be crossed out.
Every time there is an entry in Block 25, the “date” and the “signature” of the
Specialist shall be entered next to it. If the work carried out (described in
Block 25) eliminates the fault transcribed in Block 24, the Specialist that
performed the work shall place his/her initials on the corresponding symbol in
Block 23.
Upon closing Part II, any unresolved fault shall be entered in the new Part II
or in Part III of the UAV Technical LOG.
35
The decision to entry it in the new Part II or to Part III will be taken on case
by case basis based on the urgency and on the importance of the work, on
the availability of parts and equipment etc.
26. Validating Signature
The signature of the Technical Officer in this Block certifies that the
corresponding actions were carried out by licensed and qualified personnel.
It is needed in the following cases:
a) Transfer of the work to Part III of the UAV Technical LOG;
b) Maintenance work execution which was marked with a Red X or a

Circled Red X.
If the corrective actions are performed by the Company, the validation shall
be signed by responsible personnel specifically authorized by the Company
itself.

- The field "Page ___ out of ___" shall be filled in only if it was necessary
to use several sheets of Part II to record the data relating to a same
utilization/maintenance.
 UAV TECHNICAL LOG - Part III

The Team Leader shall set up a Part III sheet in each UAV Technical LOG and
shall fill in the data fields 1 and 2 similarly to the same data fields as Part II.
Until the end of the UAV Technical LOG all the Part III pages necessary for
recording the specific information described below shall be added, taking care
to number them sequentially in the dedicated data field 3 (see Part II block 3).
Once the UAV Technical LOG is complete the unresolved faults recorded in
Part III shall be transcribed in the Part III of the new UAV Technical LOG. The
Part III sheets containing only faults transcribed back to Part II shall be taken
out from the LOG and archived at the responsible Technical Office.
Before proceeding with the description of the data fields in Part III, general
information is provided about the management of Part III itself.
Upon closing Part II, any unresolved fault shall be entered in the new Part II or
transferred on to Part III. The decision has to be taken on case by case basis,
based on the urgency and on the importance of the activity, on the availability of
parts and equipment, special local conditions, etc. In any case if a corrective
action is deferred by few days, it shall be transcribed in the new Part II of the
UAV Technical LOG until the related work is performed. If the execution of the
work is expected to be delayed by several days, then the annotation shall be
entered in Part III of the UAV Technical LOG.
No fault marked with Red X, Circled Red X, Red Dash, Red Diagonal and in
general, any measure that cannot be postponed shall be transcribed in Part III.
Some examples for which a fault shall not be transferred to Part III of the UAV
Technical LOG are provided below:
36
a) Airworthiness Directive/Service Bulletins concerning Flight Safety

(Urgent and Immediate action);

The transcription of a fault in Part III shall always be reviewed and approved by
the Technical Officer, whose rank, last name written in block letters and legible
signature shall be entered in Block 30 "Annotation approved by". Upon reaching
a major inspection, all the existing faults in Part III shall be transferred in Part II
and the sheets of Part III shall be taken out and handed over to the Technical

Office. After the inspection, a new recording cycle shall be started.
27.SME
For every fault recorded in Block 29, the distinctive code of the involved
specialty shall be entered, as it was already entered in Block 22 of Part II.
28.Symb.
For each fault recorded in Block 29, the corresponding symbol shall be
recorded following the instructions of paragraph 3.4.1, as it was already
entered in Block 23 of Part II.
29.Fault
The fault to be deferred according to the procedures set out above shall be
recorded as it was already transcribed in Block 24 of Part II. A very short
annotation on the causes that delayed the action entered in Block 25 of Part
II should also be entered in this Block.
30.Annotation approved by (date and Signature)
The transcription of a fault in Part III of the UAV Technical LOG shall be
carried out by the Specialist or Team Leader, but it shall always be reviewed
and "validated" by the Technical Officer, who shall put his/her signature
preceded by the last name written in block letters in this Block.
In addition, the date on which the transcription from Part II to Part III of the
UAV Technical LOG shall be entered in this Block.
31.Authorization validity
When it can be defined, indicate the date and time until which the
authorization is valid; if it cannot be defined, indicate the conditions (e.g.:
upon receipt of material).
32.Date entered in Part II
The date on which the fault is again entered in Part II of the UAV Technical
LOG is recorded, because the time to carry out the work has arrived. In Part
II of the UAV Technical LOG of that day, Blocks 22, 23 and 24 shall be filled
in. Once the UAV Technical LOG is complete and the unresolved faults
recorded in Part III shall be transcribed in the Part III of the new UAV
Technical LOG, in this Block shall be entered the sentence as follows:
“transferred to Part III of the next AVMC2 Technical LOG”.
37
 UAV TECHNICAL LOG - Part IV

This part contains information about the inspections and the operating
instructions/employment limitations applicable to the UAV.
The Team Leader shall set up a Part IV sheet in each UAV Technical LOG and
shall fill in the fields of the header 1 and 2 similarly to the same fields in Part II
and III. Until the end of the UAV Technical LOG all the Part IV sheets necessary
for recording the specific information described below shall be added, taking
care to number them sequentially in the dedicate data field 3 (see Part II block
3).

Once the UAV Technical LOG is complete the data recorded in Part IV shall be
transcribed in the Part IV of the new UAV Technical LOG. The Part IV sheets
containing only deleted “Operating Instructions – Caution – Employment
Limitations” (block 38) and “Scheduled Maintenance” (Block 40) transcribed
back to Part II shall be taken out from the LOG and archived at the responsible

38.Operating Instructions - Cautions - Employment Limitations

In this block, the Technical Officer shall enter the UAV (and/or its parts)
Airworthiness Directives/Service Bulletins that entail operating instructions
and/or cautions for the Personnel operating in the UAV. In it shall also be
highlighted all information which the Technical Officer considers necessary to
provide to the Personnel for a correct and safe operation of the UAV.
In the respective data fields “No. Seq.", “Ref. Doc.” and “Description” shall be
entered the sequential number, the identifying information of the reference
document and the description of the operating instructions/cautions/

limitations with relevant W.O. if any.
The Technical Officer shall approve the record of the operating
instructions/cautions/limitations, dating and signing the appropriate data field
“Approval (Date and Signature)”. In case one of the operating
instructions/cautions/limitations is no longer applicable, the Technical Officer
shall cross it out, dating and signing the respective data field “Deletion (Date
and Signature”.
39.Audit LOG (Date and Signature)
Constant oversight is necessary throughout the entire maintenance process,
along with careful supervision both filling in the UAV Technical LOG and
performing the work. Audits are performed with different criteria, according to
the competence of those who carry them out (Technical Officer and Higher
Authority). The signatures affixed in this data field certify completion of the
audit and any corrective action taken, when necessary and recorded in a
dedicated form. Therefore, there is also a data field dedicated for the
signature of a Higher Authority whenever it carries out the audit.
The Technical Officer shall periodically monitor the upkeep of the UAV
Technical LOG. Audits are at his/her sole discretion, but they shall be carried
out at least once a month.
40.Scheduled Maintenance
The purpose of this block is to indicate, at any time, the current situation of
scheduled inspections and, hour-based and calendar-based replacements of
the various parts and/or of the UAV itself.
This block lists the checks that shall take place at provided time intervals, not
shown in the Periodic Inspection Certificate, regardless of the hours of
operation completed. In particular:
f) "Subject of the Insp./Repl.": identifies the type of work to be carried out,
whose scheduled expiration date is not shown in the Periodic Inspection
Certificate and the involved material indicating the P/N and S/N;
g) "Frequency": the time interval between two inspections of the part shall
be shown, in terms of days and/or months and/or operating hours;
h) "Due Date/Time": the date and/or hours of operation of the UAV by which
the next inspection or replacement shall be carried out is written in
black/blue ink. Once the inspection or replacement is completed, the
39
Specialist who performed the operation shall use a new line to record the
next due date/time of the same inspection/replacement. At the expiration
of the terms prescribed for the performance of a special inspection or for
the replacement of the item listed therein, the work required (inspection
or replacement) shall be transcribed in Part II. The value shown in the
"Due Date/Time" data field shall be crossed out leaving it still legible, if
the Technical Officer decides to postpone the work using the tolerance
within the limits indicated in the next data field. In this case, the new due
date/time recalculated using the tolerance shall be entered in the data

field "Tolerance Due Date/Time";
i) "Max Tolerance": when provided, indicate the max tolerance relating to
the Due Date/Time of the inspection/replacement (e.g.: 10%, 10 days, 10
cycles, 20 Flight Hours, etc.);
j) "Tolerance Due Date/time": as indicated above ("Due Date/Time" data
field), this data field shall be filled in only if the Technical Officer decides
to postpone the work using a tolerance within the limits indicated in the
next data field.
When the first UAV Technical LOG is set up, all data about scheduled
maintenance, with the exception of the "Tolerance Due Date/Time", shall be
filled in by the Technical Office. After the set up of the first LOG, the
"Scheduled Maintenance" of Part IV shall be filled in/updated by specialists.
The "Tolerance Due Date/Time" data field shall always be filled in by the
Technical Officer i.a.w. point “e”.
NOTE
Since the list of scheduled maintenance is the same for every
UAV, when proceeding to printout the UAV Technical LOG
according to the procedures of paragraph 3.3, Part IV could be
printed out with the list already entered in the "Subject of the
Inspection/Replacement" data field and with the "Frequency" and
"Max Tolerance” data fields already filled in. In this case, the
Technical Officer shall still be responsible for checking the pre-
printed data and indicating the specific due dates/times.
3.4.1.Specific Instructions
SYMBOLOGY
The main function of the UAV Technical LOG is to present at all times the status of
the UAV with regard to its ability to conduct the flight. For this purpose, special
symbols are established to immediately provide the aforesaid information.
 Red X ( X )
With this symbol, the UAV shall not fly. It warns that the UAV is not capable of
conducting a flight or is in such conditions that flight would be dangerous
because of the extent of the problems noted.
40
A Red X is affixed as soon as an Airworthiness Directive or an "Immediate"

Service Bulletin is received which requires the completion, prior to the next
flight, of operations applicable to that UAV or to its parts.
The corrective actions performed to eliminate the conditions that had led to the
Red X shall be validated by the Technical Officer or, when the corrective
actions are performed by Company, the validation shall be performed by
responsible personnel specifically authorized by the Company itself.
The validation of Red X elimination shall be certified with a signature in block 26
of Part II “Validating Signature”, next to the signature of the personnel who

carried out the action.
This signature certifies:
- that the assessment process has been supervised and any corrective actions
have been agreed with the specialists
- the subsequently verification of the corrective actions successful introduction.
An “exceptional release to service” to conduct the flight shall not be granted
when the UAV is marked with a Red X.
 Circled Red X ( )
This symbol has to be used when the UAV shall not fly, awaiting compliance
with an "Urgent" Service Bulletin whose established time limits have expired.
For this symbol, the same provisions of the previous point, concerning the
validation signature, shall apply. An “Exceptional Release to Service” for the
flight may not be granted when the UAV is marked with a Circled Red X.
 Red Dash ( — )
This symbol has to be used when a work (inspection, maintenance, change of
an item upon reaching its operating limit, etc.) has not been carried out yet,
although the execution times according to the applicable standard have expired.
The status of the UAV is not well known, because the work that can exactly
define the conditions of the UAV and of its accessories has not been carried
out. Therefore, to employ an UAV marked with Red Dash, an exceptional
authorization is required, which may be granted only by the Technical Officer for
technical deficiency, or by the Pilot for operational deficiency that do not
compromise the safety of flight, but limits the UAV in some conditions.
 Red Diagonal ( ⁄ )
This symbol has to be used when a deficiency was noted on the UAV, but
without the level of severity indicated with the Red X. In any case, an
“Exceptional Release to Service” is required to employ the UAV in the flight. A
Red Diagonal is affixed when an "Urgent" Service Bulletin is received which
refers to that UAV or to its parts. If the aforesaid Service Bulletin requires the
execution of operations within determined time intervals (in hours of
flight/operation and/or in calendar terms), at the expiration of which the UAV is
no longer fit for flight, when these due dates/times are reached the recording of
the Service Bulletin shall be marked with the circled Red X.
41
 Black Dash ( — )
This symbol has to be used when a scheduled maintenance work (inspection -
overhaul - replacement of parts etc.) was not carried out in accordance with the
prescribed due date/time but a regulation postpones its application if specific
checks and/or inspections are successfully performed. This symbol is also used
when recording an inspection and/or replacement of parts and/or Routine
Service Bulletin to be carried out, whose execution due date/time has not yet
expired.
 Black Diagonal ( / )

This symbol indicates that a defect has been observed on the UAV, which does
not jeopardize the airworthiness of the UAV.
TIMES
Refer to paragraph 2.4.1
3.5 UAV Technical LOG Storage

During utilization/flight/maintenance, the UAV Technical LOG shall be stored in the
GCS engaged in the flight.
If different GCSs are used during the same flight, the UAV Technical LOG shall
remain in the initial GCS at least until the conclusion of that flight. Subsequently,
the Maintenance Crew Chief/Team Leader shall supplement the Technical LOG
signed by him/her, in particular using the data entered in the Parts I of the logs of
the other GCSs which conducted the flight.
At the end of utilization/flight/maintenance, the Parts of the UAV Technical LOG
shall be stored as follows:
 PART II
At the end of utilization/maintenance, the relevant sheet shall be taken out from
the insert of the Technical LOG, after entering in the subsequent Part II and/or
III sheet any maintenance operations/overhauls to be performed, and it is
delivered to the office in charge of controlling and storing such sheets.
If the UAV is suspended from operations for the execution of inspections and/or
the elimination of faults, the same Part II sheet shall be utilized until the UAV is
returned to operations. The aforesaid office shall maintain for each UAV a file
where all Part II sheets shall be stored, to provide documentation on the
maintenance work carried out on the same UAV.
For maintenance work carried out by the Manufacturer/Overhaul Company, Part
II sheets shall initially be retained and filled in by the Company. Part II sheets
shall be returned to NAGSF with the delivery of the UAV.
 PART III
Part III sheets shall remain in the UAV Technical LOG in use, with the exception
of those closed following an inspection (all entries in Part III have been
transferred to Part II) which shall be taken out and stored in the office in charge
of controlling and storing such sheets. When a new UAV Technical LOG is set
42
up, the Part III sheets present in the old LOG (e.g.: deferred corrective
measures not yet carried out) shall be entered in the new one.
 PART IV
Part IV sheets shall remain in the UAV Technical LOG in use, with the
exception of the closed ones (all entries in Part IV were transferred to Part II or
to a new Part IV) which shall be taken out and stored in the office in charge of
controlling and storing such sheets. When a new UAV Technical LOG is set up,
the Part IV sheets present in the old LOG (e.g.: still active operating instruction)
shall be entered in the new one.

All the UAV Technical LOGs and the related Parts shall be stored in a manner that
ensures protection from damage, alteration and theft. They shall remain readable
and accessible for the duration of the storage period. In particular, the Technical
LOG shall be stored at least for 10 years and in such a way that it can be
consulted, even after the retirement from the line of the NATO AGS RQ-4D Air
Segment. If during storage period any controversy arise, the above mentioned
period will become effective from the end of the controversy.
Access to the Technical LOGs by DAAA and Competent Body shall be granted by
NAGSF upon request.
