"CRITICAL SAFETY ITEM (CSI)/ FLIGHT SAFETY CRITICAL

AIRCRAFT PART (FSCAP)

This manual contains procedures identifying critical characteristics of CSI/FSCAP. Critical characteristics may be identified as dimensions, tolerances, finishes, materials, assembly or inspection procedures. All procedures require qualified sources. CSIs/FSCAPs indicating a maximum allowable limit shall not be continued in use when limits have been exceeded. These parts must be replaced."

REPLACE in LIST OF TABLES the line "1-0 Flight Safety Critical Aircraft Parts (FSCAP)........... 1-3 " with "1-0 Critical Safety Items (CSIs)/Flight Safety Critical Aircraft Parts (FSCAPs) 1-3:"

"1-3.2 CRITICAL SAFETY ITEMS/ FLIGHT SAFETY CRITICAL AIRCRAFT PARTS (CSI/FSCAP) PROGRAM. Parts, assemblies, or installations identified under the CSI/FSCAP program require special handling during time at depot. Throughout the depot procedures, warnings appear emphasizing critical instructions to be followed. These warnings are identified as CRITICAL SAFETY ITEM (CSI) FLIGHT SAFETY CRITICAL AIRCRAFT PART (FSCAP) warnings and are inserted whenever and wherever necessary.

a. A Critical Safety Item/Flight Safety Critical Safety Item is defined as a part, assembly, installation equipment, launch equipment, recovery equipment, or support equipment for an aircraft or aviation weapons system that contains a characteristic any failure, malfunction, or absence of which could cause a catastrophic or critical failure resulting in the loss or serious damage to the aircraft or weapons system, an unacceptable risk of personal injury or loss of life, or an uncommanded engine shutdown that jeopardizes safety. Damage is considered serious or substantial when it would be sufficient to cause a “Class A” accident or a mishap of severity category I. The determining factor in CSIs/FSCAP is the consequence of failure, not the probability that the failure or consequence would occur. For the purpose of this instruction “Critical Safety Item”, “Flight Safety Critical Aircraft Part”, “Flight Safety Part”, “Safety of Flight Item”, and similar terms are synonymous. The term Critical Safety Item/Flight Safety Critical Safety Item shall be the encompassing term used throughout this instruction.

b. A Critical Characteristic (CC) is any feature throughout the life cycle of a CSI/FSCAP which, if nonconforming, missing, or degraded, could cause failure or malfunction of the CSI/FSCAP. Critical Characteristics include dimensions, tolerances, finish, materials, or assembly, manufacturing and inspection processes. Life cycle covers manufacturing operations, field maintenance, and overhaul through normal service life of the part.

c. Critical Safety Items/Flight Safety Critical Aircraft Parts and their Critical Characteristics are listed in table 1-0.

d. Critical Safety Items/Flight Safety Critical Aircraft Parts will have their Critical Characteristics verified at repair. The required Critical Characteristics inspections are applicable to used parts, not new parts.

f. REPAIR: Special Repair Activity (SRA) will not be approved for any repair which could affect a Critical Characteristic of a CSI/FSCAP."

REPLACE in Table 1-0 "Flight Safety Critical Aircraft Parts (FSCAP)" with "Critical Safety Items (CSI)/Flight Safety Critical Aircraft Parts (FSCAP) "

REPLACE in WARNING "Flight Safety Critical Aircraft Part" with "Critical Safety Item/Flight Safety Critical Aircraft Part" and "FSCAP" with "CSI/FSCAP". Replace "flight safety" with "critical safety item/flight safety".
