The Statement of Work for HC-144 Flight Control Repair outlines the need for repairs to the HC-144 LH Aileron, P/N 35-14003-0002, due to corrosion damage impacting its hinge fittings. The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) has determined that the current assets lack the capacity for necessary repairs, leading to the engagement of the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), ADSMA in Mobile, AL, for inspection and repair services. The scope includes restoring the aileron to airworthy condition using specialized tools and materials, with the requirement for comprehensive documentation throughout the process. ADSMA must provide an itemized list of repairs, including parts and labor costs, and respond promptly to any additional damage identified during the repair. Key deliverables include a detailed cost estimate, timeline for completion, and FAA documentation post-repair. This initiative is vital for ensuring the safety and airworthiness of the aircraft components, adhering to stringent standards and regulations laid out in the original contract and relevant manuals. The overall aim is to guarantee the operational readiness of the aileron and mitigate risks associated with corrosion damage.
