AI Summary
The U.S. Air Force document LPF-QAR-003 outlines quality assurance requirements for First Article Test Plans and Reports concerning F100 engine parts at the Oklahoma City ALC. It provides guidelines for preparing test plans and reports when referenced in a contract's first article data. Key requirements include specific quantities for first articles, with all articles undergoing nondestructive testing and a portion undergoing destructive testing. Testing must verify dimensional conformance, non-destructive inspection requirements (FPI, Ultrasonic, Eddy Current, X-ray, visual), material properties (mechanical, metallurgical, chemical), and adherence to all specifications and standards. First articles must be serialized, and all inspections require 100% measurement without sampling. Detailed tabular formats for inspection results and calibrated tooling are mandatory. Nondestructive inspections must comply with LPR-QPR-018 and use Pratt & Whitney approved sources, with Level III or II inspectors required. Visual inspections must follow Pratt & Whitney Visual Inspection Standards. Material property testing includes mechanical, metallurgical, and chemical tests, with complete laboratory reports and photomicrographs where applicable. The First Article Test Plan and Report, including all laboratory results, must be submitted to the Contracting Officer as per contract schedules. Disposition of parts after testing, including remnants from destructive testing and one unserviceable article, is also specified. All articles must be newly manufactured from compliant materials, and only pre-approved subcontractors are permitted, with Engineering Instructions taking precedence over other technical guidance.
