QUESTIONA mechanic has a bracket drawing and needs to confirm that it applies to the specific aircraft and installation being worked on. Where on the drawing is this application information found?

  1. AIn the revision block at a corner of the sheet
  2. BIn the bill of material listing
  3. CNear or in the title block
Show the answer and explanation

Correct answer: C. Near or in the title block

  • A — incorrect The revision block records changes to the drawing, not which aircraft or installation the drawing applies to.
  • B — incorrect The bill of material lists the parts and materials needed for fabrication, not the aircraft application.
  • C — correct When shown near or in the title block, application refers to a specific aircraft, assembly, sub-assembly, or unique application, such as a bracket for a particular autopilot installation.

BACKGROUND

Every print carries a title block, usually in the lower right corner, containing the drawing number and other data about the drawing and the object it represents. When shown near or in the title block, application may refer to a specific aircraft, assembly, sub-assembly, or unique application. The handbook's example is a bracket assembly whose title block indicates it is for a roll servo installation for a particular autopilot, and if the bracket were unique to an aircraft with a specific air conditioning system, the title block would provide that application information. The revision block and bill of material serve other purposes.

STUDY TIP

Before using any drawing, read the application information in or near the title block and match it to the aircraft in front of you.

KEY POINTS

  • Application information appears near or in the title block.
  • It may name a specific aircraft, assembly, sub-assembly, or unique installation.
  • The revision block and bill of material do not state applicability.
