13020 refers to which maintenance manual?

• A. Naval Aviation Maintenance Manual
• B. Flight Operations Manual
• C. Aeronautical Engineering Maintenance Management Manual
• D. Aircraft Structural Repair Manual

Answer: (C)

13020 points to the manual that governs how maintenance is planned, managed, and supported by engineering in aeronautical systems. This Aeronautical Engineering Maintenance Management Manual covers maintenance management procedures, engineering support, data usage, and configuration control—areas that guide the overall upkeep of the aircraft rather than how to operate it or how to perform specific structural repairs.

A Flight Operations Manual focuses on flight crew procedures and operational standards, not maintenance management. An Aircraft Structural Repair Manual provides specific repair instructions for structural components, not maintenance planning and engineering management. A Naval Aviation Maintenance Manual, while broader, does not align with the specific maintenance-management orientation indicated by the 13020 reference.
