REVIEW MGTE LOG BOOKS (MGTEL) A periodic review of the MGTEL should be done and as a GS supervisor you may be tasked with this job. In the Gas Turbine Systems Technician (Mechanical) 2 and Gas Turbine Systems Technician (Electrical) 2 training manuals you were told the MGTEL is a hardcover book that houses all the marine gas turbine equipment service records (MGTESRs). You were also given a basic description of each record sheet and the type of information found on each sheet that makes up the various sections of the MGTEL.

In addition to the information provided in the rate training manuals and NSTM, chapter 234, you can use this sample checklist to follow when you conduct a review of your logbooks. The numbers listed at the end of each statement or question are reference paragraphs from NSTM, chapter 234.
