Acceptance inspection is performed when which events occur?

• A. When your unit accepts a newly assigned aircraft, and upon return of an aircraft from standard Depot level work
• B. Only when a new aircraft is assigned
• C. Only after depot level work
• D. At every annual maintenance

Answer: (A)

Acceptance inspection checks that the aircraft is ready to be used when you take ownership of it. It happens at two key moments: when your unit is handed a newly assigned aircraft, and when an aircraft returns from depot-level maintenance after that work is completed. In both cases you confirm the aircraft’s configuration matches the required specifications, all maintenance has been completed, and any discrepancies have been resolved before the aircraft goes back into service. It’s not limited to just new aircraft, nor just after depot work, and it isn’t something performed at every annual maintenance.
