                                    A detailed NLTE investigation of Fe I lines is carried out within the
framework of the MACKKL model of the quiet solar atmosphere. The authors
used a realistic iron atom model which allows for the fine term
structure and has about 250 levels; it involves nearly 500 UV, optical,
and IR bound-bound and bound-free transitions and includes the
conditions near the Fe I continuum. Errors that arise in the heights of
formation, source functions, equivalent widths, and central depths of
the Fe I lines within the LTE approximation are statistically studied.
The authors demonstrate that the behavior of the errors can be described
by a parametric set of curves depending on height of line formation, the
parameter being the excitation potential of the lower level.
