Study Notes
Aircraft Maintenance and Inspection
- Entries must be made in the aircraft maintenance record to fly the aircraft to another maintenance base.
- The owner of the aircraft must submit a record of all minor repairs to the FAA at least annually.
Maintenance Record Requirements
- A person installing a product, part, or appliance on a type-certificated product must make certain that the item's records document what type of statement.
- The record must include the dates of all maintenance, preventive maintenance, and alterations.
- The record must also include the total time-in-service of the airframe.
Annual or 100-Hour Inspection
- Each person performing an annual or 100-hour inspection shall use a checklist that contains at least those items in the appendix of 14CFR Part 43.
- After completing the inspection, the mechanic must make the proper entries in the aircraft's maintenance record.
Powerplant Major Alterations
- Disassembly of a float-type carburetor is not considered a powerplant major alteration.
- Replacement of a cylinder is a powerplant major alteration.
- Removal of a piston is a powerplant major alteration.
Maintenance Personnel
- Only an appropriate licensed aircraft mechanic can approve an aircraft for return to service after maintenance, preventive maintenance, rebuilding, or modification.
- A supervising mechanic must personally maintain such observation of the work being performed as is necessary to ensure that the work is performed properly.
Aircraft Airworthiness
- An aircraft that is found to be not airworthy after an annual inspection, due to an item requiring a major repair, cannot be returned to service until the repair is completed.
- A special flight permit may be issued for an aircraft that may not currently meet applicable airworthiness requirements but is capable of safe flight for the purpose of reaching a maintenance base.
Maintenance Operations
- Typical preventive maintenance operations include removal, installation, and repair of landing gear tires, removal and installation of cylinders, repairing dents, cuts, and small cracks on a wooden propeller, and grinding of valves and removing carbon.
- Special repairs to structural engine parts by welding, plating, metalizing, or other methods are classified as powerplant major repairs.
Aircraft Inspection and Testing
- No person, entity other than the authority may disapprove an aircraft, airframe, aircraft engine, propeller, appliance, or component part for return to service after maintenance, preventive maintenance, rebuilding, or modification.
- An aircraft that has undergone any major repair or alteration shall not be returned to service unless such aircraft has thereafter been test flown by a person holding at least a commercial pilot license with an instrument rating.
