In the NAVAIR Conventional Numbering System, what does Part 2 identify?

• A. The aircraft model, or manufacturer, or specific subcategory of the manual
• B. The general subject classification
• C. The prefix
• D. The particular type of manual

Answer: (A)

Part 2 identifies the exact aircraft model, or the manufacturer, or a specific subcategory of the manual. This part of the numbering narrows the publication down from a broad subject to the precise publication you need, so you can tell at a glance which manual applies to the particular aircraft or variant you’re working with. The general subject area is indicated by other parts of the number, not Part 2, and the kind of manual or its prefix are encoded elsewhere in the designation.
