Breaking Down the Annual Inspection Part 4
Increase Your Knowledge in the Proper Way to Inspect a General Aviation Aircraft
About this session
In this four-part webinar series, we will explore how to conduct a comprehensive annual inspection, helping mechanics and inspectors (IA) avoid common pitfalls.
We'll cover Pre-Inspection Paperwork, Pre-Run Inspection, and a thorough physical inspection of the Propeller, Engine, and Airframe. Adhering to the scope and detail of FAR 43 Appendix D. The series will guide you on assembling a discrepancy list, determining when to consult the owner, ordering and receiving parts, conducting a post-maintenance inspection, completing post-inspection paperwork, performing a Post Inspection Run-Up, and inspecting all items. Finally, we'll discuss how to sign off the aircraft and deliver it to the owner.
Background :
Inadequate maintenance and inspections are common accident causal factors. Aircraft owners seeking bargain-priced mechanical services may see unairworthy aircraft returned to service. Inexperience and time pressure have caused mechanics and IA to overlook certain items.
