Hi All,



Many have ask and many more    are confused about the time tables for inspections. Do you follow the 100 hr.    time table set by the engine and aircraft Mfg or do I follow the FAA and Mfg    Annual condition Inspection time table?

The simple answer is both and    neither. You may say not so fast here pal, but here is the straight scoop from    all authoritative entities.

First the FAA doesn't care how often the Annual    is rest so long as it is addressed and done. Flight Design and Rotax have both    100 hr. and Annual inspections. They don't care so long as they are done and    addressed and both the annual and the 100 can be done at any time and the time    table for each can be reset.

So what does this mean for me and you? If you    only fly 50 hours a year then you will be doing the Annual Condition    Inspection most of the time. An example is: you have 50 hours on the plane in    one year and the Annual is due. So the Annual and 100 hr inspection is the    same. You do the Annual and sign off in the log that both have been addressed.    Your next Annual is 12 months from then and the next 100 hr. is at 150 hrs. If    the Annual comes around again at let's say 110 hrs then you will do the annual    and also address the 100 hr inspection. Now the Annual is again in 12 months    and the 100 hr. is due at 210 hrs. and so on. So if you are a low time pilot    (less than 100 hrs a year) then you will do more Annual condition time table    inspections.



What if you are a 100+ hr a year pilot. Let's say you fly    175 hrs or 225 hrs a a year. Then you will be doing more 100 hr time table    inspections and addressing and resetting the Annual time table. So lets say    your first year you put on 100 hrs. before the annual was due. Now you do the    100 hr. inspection and reset the Annual which then would come due in 12 months    from that date. Now you put on another 100 hr. before the annual is due again.    You will do the 100 hr. inspection and reset the annual again for 12 months    down the line.

This type of schedule give pilots some flexibility    for inspection times. You must make sure you write in the logbook that you    have done both or you may be doing two inspections separate from each    other.



I know it is clear as mud, but that's it in a nut    shell.

Are you planning on  firing the escape slide and jumping in?

 Hell, I might be like the folks you see on the news, just get fed up &  get ta' blastin'! 

  

 Thanks for allowing me to blast off. It keeps me from having to do the  above. 

  

 BUT MAN WHAT ARE THEY GOING TO COME UP WITH NEXT?

  

 Where's 100LL going? And now we've got Ethanol to deal with.

  

 Just heard yesterday some stupid, lame brained politician (is there  any other type?) is trying to make a new TCAS-like instrument  mandatory for all general aviation aircraft (and maybe LSAs too)...at "only" $10  to $12,000 per aircraft! How neat! I mean what the hell ever happened to  pilots who could actually think & look to avoid for themselves? Good  God!

AAAhhh now you are my new hero Bluemax ! (prior was slide blowing flight attendent...hmmm that didn't sound quite right) ... That is precisely the reason why I let my medical expire. I too am tired of the BS. I do however stay current with my condition inspections,biannual reviews etc just in case I crunch the airplane and find myself getting sued by land owner,loosing my license,no coverage on busted aircraft,etc. I am comfortable with that.

   BAAAAHHHHHH (sheep sound)
