The Avionics Instrument Systems career ladder (AFSC 325X1) provides flight line and shop maintenance training on aircraft instrument systems, electromechancial instruments, components, and test equipment. Duties involve inspecting, removing, installing, repairing, operating, troubleshooting, overhauling, and modifying systems such as flight and engine instrument systems, flight data recorder system, central air data computer (CADC) systems, flight director indicating systems, gyro/magnetic compasses, clocks, pressure, temperature, and liquid and torque indicating systems. A wide variety of instruments is maintained on all types of aircraft stationed world-wide. This results in the performance of a rather large number of tasks by personnel in DAFSC325X1. If a decision is made to combine the 325X1 with 325X0, some compensating reduction in workload should be provided. (NTIS)
