The role of the UH60 Quality Control lead is paramount in ensuring the integrity of assigned aircraft (UH60) systems and components. Tasked with conducting meticulous inspections, inspectors rely on manuals and checklists provided by manufacturers or the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to assess components before, during, and after repairs and maintenance procedures. Responsibilities extend to performing functional checks to identify maintenance requirements, ensuring all repair work adheres to safety standards, and calibrating inspection tools to precise specifications. Beyond aircraft inspections, inspectors dedicate time to evaluating the repair environment to guarantee worker safety. Collaborating closely with safety personnel and mechanics, they may also communicate findings to manufacturers or the FAA when encountering new issues.
During the 1st Shift, the UH60 Quality Control Lead ensures that all related operations are conducted in a safe manner.
