What happens after the shop initiates and completes the AFTO Form 350?

After the shop initiates and completes the AFTO Form 350, the process typically involves returning the item to base supply. This form is crucial for tracking maintenance actions and is a record of the item's status. Completing the AFTO Form 350 indicates that the work on the item is finished and that it is now available for reuse or repurpose, usually leading to its return to base supply.

In the context of maintenance operations, this ensures that the inventory is accurately maintained, and the item can be resourced for future needs. The return to base supply is fundamental for effective logistical support, ensuring that the items are accounted for and available for future maintenance or deployment as necessary.

Other options revolve around different processes that do not occur automatically following the AFTO Form 350 completion. The item is not directly delivered to the maintenance shop at this stage since it has already been through maintenance. It is equally unlikely that the item would be scheduled for another inspection immediately, as the form indicates that the maintenance has been completed. Sending items to document control is another separate administrative function that generally happens after processing forms and does not directly correlate with the actions linked to the AFTO Form 350.
