1. SUMMARY 1.1. Background - A UH-60 Black Hawk Scheduled Maintenance Process Review
recommended initiation of a program to study the feasibility of extending the
Preventive Maintenance Services (PMS-1/PMS-2) for the purpose of increasing the
operational readiness of the fleet. The plan authorized a small number of field units
to conduct Operational Evaluations (OPEVAL) of the increased maintenance interval
proposal. Units selected to participate in this OPEVAL program, under high
OPTEMPO have reported a significant decrease in maintenance downtime with no
airworthiness issues attributed to the increased inspection intervals. The Department
of the Army has decided to implement the ESM Program Fleet-wide. Current
scheduled maintenance program consists of a PMS-1 conducted every 10 Hour/14 Day
(30 Hour/42 Days), a PMS-2, conducted every 500 flight hours, and a variety of
special inspections. The ESM program rearranges these inspections to incorporate a
Preventive Maintenance Daily (PMD), performed either after completion of the last
flight of the day, or prior to first flight of each mission day; a 40 Hour Preventive
Maintenance Services (PMS); and a 350/700 Hour split phase (PMI-1 and PMI-2)
inspection. Current special inspections performed at 100 flight hours are performed
at 120 hours under ESM Program. An extensive evaluation has been conducted on
the airworthiness impact of changing existing inspections to intervals within the ESM
format. Those inspections that could not be extended have either been retained at
current interval as a special inspection or have been incorporated into a more
Page 1 of 7
UH-60-05-SOF-02
221920Z MAR 05
accommodating interval. As a result, there is no airworthiness impact in

implementing the ESM Program which will result in significant savings in
maintenance man-hours and increase flexibility for the UH-60 maintenance
community.
1.2. Message Purpose 1.2.1. Revise/Change recurring inspection intervals, established in previous safety
messages and Technical Bulletins (TB).

for 7 days if the aircraft is not flown.
7.2.2. A 10 Hour special inspection of the blade pin shall be scheduled and monitored as a DA
Form 2408-18 entry as outlined in TB 1-1520-237-20-266.
7.3. The 40/Hour Preventive Maintenance Service (PMS) will be implemented as follows:
7.3.1. Add the entry to DA Form 2408-18 for PMS at a 40 hour interval since the last
documented 30 Hour/42 Day inspection was performed. Delete the entries for 10
Hour/14 Day and 30 Hour/42 Day requirement.
7.3.2. Realign the 30 Hour Special Inspection requirements as outlined in TB 1-1520-237-20266 with the (PMS) 40 Hour Service.
7.4. Revise recurring Special Inspections on the DA Form 2408-18 as follows:
7.4.1. The 100 Hour Inspections will be performed at 120 flight hours.
7.4.2. The 250 Hour Inspections will be incorporated into 350/700 Hour PMI inspections.
7.4.3. The 1000 Hour/36 month special requirements will be changed in current manuals to
reflect 1000 hour/48 month inspection interval.
7.4.4. Current 90 Day Corrosion Inspection is changed to ESM 90 Day Corrosion Inspection.
7.4.5. The 100, 250 and 500 hour Engine inspection intervals have been changed to
accommodate the ESM Format. Changes to TM 1-2840-248-23 are forthcoming and
revised schedules are included in TB 1-1520-237-20-266.
7.5. The 350/700 hour Phase Inspection (PMI) will be implemented as follows:
7.5.1. Conduct a records review to determine when the last Periodic Inspection was completed.
7.5.1.1. Aircraft with more than 150 hours remaining until the next Periodic Inspection will be
scheduled for either a PMI-1 or a PMI-2 at 350 hours since the last (PMS-2) inspection.
The opposite PMI will then be due 350 hours later for aircraft inducted into this
schedule.
7.5.1.2. Aircraft with less than 150 hours until the next PMS-2 inspection, will perform either a
PMI-1 or a PMI-2 at 500 hours (or earlier at Unit discretion) since last PMS-2 was
performed. The opposite PMI inspection will then be due 200 plus hours later for
aircraft inducted into this schedule. The reason for the 200 plus hour limit is to prevent
any aircraft from exceeding 700 hours since the last PMS-2, when the opposite PMI
areas were inspected.

TM 1-1520-237-PMI
SECTION l
GENERAL INFORMATION AND SCOPE
1. OZONE DEPLETING CHEMICAL INFORMATION.
To be determined.
2. HAZARDOUS INFORMATION.
To be determined.
3. INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS.
This manual
contains complete requirements for periodic inspection for
UH-60A, UH-60L, UH-60Q, HH-60L, and EH-60A
helicopters. It does not contain instructions for repair,
adjustment, or other means of rectifying conditions, nor
does it contain instructions for troubleshooting to find
causes for malfunctioning. Specific tolerances, limits, etc.,
can be found in the applicable maintenance manuals. Use
of the Maintenance Task Matrix, Alphabetic Index, or
Table of Contents in the applicable manuals will aid in
finding the required information. The inspection
requirements in this manual establish basic criteria for
inspecting for damage, i. e. cracks, corrosion, etc. When an
inspection for cracks is called out, the inspection should be
in compliance with procedures in TM 1-1520-265-23
(Nondestructive Inspection Procedures For UH-60
Helicopters Series) unless otherwise noted. If the
procedures are not addressed in the TM 1-1520-265-23,
then use procedures called out in TM 1-1500- 335-23
(Nondestructive Inspection Methods).
4. PERSONNEL REQUIREMENTS. A phase inspection,
for the most part, is normally done by Tactical Transport
Helicopter Repairers, MOS 15T. In addition, certain

specialists are needed for some inspections. These
specialists include an Aircraft Powerplant Repairer, MOS
15B, an Aircraft Electrician, MOS 15F, and an Avionics
Mechanic, MOS 15N. The MOS column specifies which
MOS is to do the inspection procedure.
5. SCOPE. The inspection prescribed by this manual will
be done at specified periods by aviation unit maintenance
activities.
6. DEFINITION. The UH-60 Phased Maintenance
Inspection program consists of 2 separate and different
inspections performed at a 350 hour interval on a 700 hour
cycle. Phase Maintenance Inspection #1 will be due at 350
aircraft hours. Phase Maintenance Inspection #2 will occur
350 hours after Phased Maintenance Inspection #1. The
applicable inspection requirements (#1, #2, ALL) are
annotated in the left hand column of this manual next to
the required inspection.
7. GENERAL INFORMATION.
a. The inspection requirements herein state when
certain equipment is to be inspected and what conditions
are desired. Compliance is required to be sure that
potential deficiencies are discovered and corrected before
malfunctioning or serious trouble results. To arrange
inspection requirements according to the manner in which
TM 1-1520-237-PMI
work will be done, the requirements in each area are
divided into groups under area headings (Figure 1-1). An
area title indicates a specific helicopter location, which may
be composed of several systems of groups of related
components within this given area. Refer to Army
Regulations and Operator's Manual for personnel
requirements and procedures for ground run and flight
checking the helicopter.
b. This manual is for all UH-60A, UH-60L, UH-60Q,
HH-60L, and EH-60A helicopters and may therefore
contain inspection requirements that apply to specific
equipment not installed on individual helicopters. When
this situation is met, those requirements that do not apply
should be disregarded.
8. EXCEEDING THE PHASE MAINTENANCE
INSPECTION SCHEDULE.
The phase maintenance
inspection interval designated is the maximum and shall
not be exceeded except in actual operational emergencies as
explained herein. For this purpose, operational emergencies
are conditions of combat or conditions of disaster, which
necessitate flight to evacuate helicopter or personnel. Those
items annotated by the letter C, along with any items that
are due on the DA Form 2408-18 (Equipment Inspection
Record), are considered the minimum mandatory combat
maintenance inspection requirements for helicopters
scheduled for imminent deployment to, or stationed in, a
combat environment. Under no circumstances will two
combat 700-hour cycle inspections be performed
sequentially. When helicopters are operated beyond the
normal inspection due time because of such emergency
situations, a circled red X status symbol and an
