Questions and answers

Does the MESL determine aerospace vehicle airworthiness?

The MESL does not determine airworthiness or "safety-of-flight": Do not use the MESL to gauge "go/no-go" decisions. (paragraph 2)

When is an aerospace vehicle considered NMC flyable?

The maintenance status NMC flyable (Condition status codes K, L, M, N, P) will be used when an aerospace vehicle cannot accomplish the unit’s wartime, training, or test mission, but is still flyable (safe for flight). (paragraph 2)

Can an NMC flyable aerospace vehicle be deployed?

A NMC flyable aerospace vehicle may be deployed if it can be returned to MC status (FMC or PMC) at the deployed site. (paragraph 2)

How is an inoperative data acquisition unit reported for an automated meteorological observing system?

If the data acquisition unit (data logger) is inoperative, report system NMC (Red). (paragraph 1-3)

How is an automated meteorological observing system reported when it is operating normally?

Report FMC (Green) when system is operating normally. (paragraph 1-3)
