Neil_S Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Does my 24 registered plane need a 100 hour inspection or can it be an annual inspection? I believe it is whichever comes first. Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

facthunter Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 That's how it is with a VH registered plane. whichever come first. No extensions. Nev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Moore Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 I thought for GA it depends on the category of the M/R, private planes can do annual inspection regardless of the hours flown (they still need the required hourly AD's yarda yards completed though).

djpacro Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Nev - Louis is correct, the period of the MR is calendar based only. Apart from ADs there are oil changes intervals (an AD mandates manufacturer's recommendations) and .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
facthunter Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 That's fine. I was thinking of Oil Changes and other itens that might have an hours based servicing schedule. ( Like magnetos). There is the potential to do a lot of flying hours in a year in some operations. Nev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Moore Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Yes there is, but not many people in the private category go over 100 hours. Commercial and Air work cats require the 100 hour inspection. But this is for VH aircraft, my understanding is 24 aircraft still come under the which ever is first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
facthunter Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 I don't know. I guess the current techman is busy. Perhaps he should get a helper temporarily at least? He would be the one to ask. Comercial ops require an engine strip even if it has done little time at 5? years.or 10? Nev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djpacro Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 If your talking VH The commercial ops life is 12 years since last bulk strip The AD mandates the engine manufacturer's recommendations so the figure will vary. Lycoming is 12 years. Also, it is not related to a bulk strip but to an overhaul to manufacturer's requirements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Moore Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 DJ, I am talking purely about Calendar life, not time, which can be reset at bulk strip as opposed to overhaul. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
