Scope
The reader of specifications sometimes needs some help understanding the format of an AMS and reasoning behind certain usage of terms. The scope of this AIR is to explain the functions of the various sections of the specifications, why some of the terms in AMS specifications are used, and how the specification system works. After the introduction (Section 3 of this document), the topics are presented in the order they usually appear in specifications.
Rationale
AIR4779C results from a Five Year Review and update of this information report.

* Redlines comparisons are available for those standards
listed in the Revision History that contain a radio button. A
redline comparison of the current version against a revision is
accomplished by selecting the radio button next to the standard and
then selecting 'compare'. At this time, Redline versions only exist
for some AMS standards. SAE will continue to add redline versioning
with ongoing updates to SAE MOBILUS.
