The 92nd and 141st Maintenance Groups recently approved a plan for a longer Periodic Inspection based on data collected by the squadrons since September 2013. Over the last 24 months, the average amount of discrepancies found during a PE increased by approximately 129 percent due to higher rates of use, the increase of aircraft age and the decline of parts available for the KC-135 Stratotanker.
