Aeronautical material, less avionics, with a unit cost of less than $250, easily procurable from an OGA or commercial source, with units setting allowance quantities and procuring material using the AFC 30 fund, is which type material?

• A. Type 2
• B. Type 3
• C. Type 5
• D. Type 6

Answer: (B)

The described material fits Type 3. This category covers aeronautical spares that are low in cost (under the threshold, here less than $250), non-avionics, and readily obtainable from OGA or commercial sources. They’re stocked at the unit level as allowances and procured with the AFC 30 fund. In short, it’s the kind of inexpensive, readily available item kept as part of unit allowances and purchased through AFC 30, rather than repairables or higher-cost, specialty items that would fall into other types.
