The F16 technical orders we have examined are subdivided into two main sections: the introduction, that describes some general procedures such as connection of electrical power; and a section on maintenance procedures. We will discuss the organization of the latter, as the procedures described in the former follow the same format in a simplified way.
The procedures 
described in the maintenance procedure
section of the F16 technical orders all (?) concern the substitution
of a certain Component X, and are organized as subdivided into the
three subprocedures removal, installation and checkout of
the Component X in question. That the three subprocedures
removal, installation and checkout are not independent, but are
part of the global task of substituting Component X --- never
explicitly mentioned! --- is shown by the
fact that the first part of each 
, Input conditions,
consists of conditions, recommendations and safety notes that apply to
all three subprocedures. Note that removal, installation and
checkout are labeled with (1), (2) and (3)
respectively in the technical orders, so that they can be referred to
by means of these indexes.
We will discuss here the various subcomponents of a procedure 
, which are, in order, input conditions, the three
subprocedures, and follow-on maintenance.
