Surviving AS9100 Rev. D: Implementing the Aerospace Quality Management System Standard Without Crashing Into Anything

The author of Eyesore 9000 and Surviving ISO 9001:2015 aims his snarky, unrelenting analysis the world's most famous aerospace quality management system standard, revealing why "AS9100 Revision D" is both intentionally confusing and often in contradiction with the rules of the companies that wrote it, such as Boeing. Understanding that companies will be forced to implement and certify to AS9100 anyway, the book provides proven, real-world implementation techniques for each requirement. Filled with the same level of outrageous humor as his prior publications, author Christopher Paris is not afraid to name names and point fingers at the developers who created the standard, and call them out on their need to fix its problems in future editions.The book includes chapters on implementing AS9110 for aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul stations, as well as AS9120 for aerospace industry stockist distributors. Finally, guest author Mark Stevens provides guidance on navigating the intimidating International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) as it applies to AS certified companies.Adult language warning for humor.
