INSPECTIONS
The FAA requires that an
airplane
used
for
hire be
in-
spected at each 100 hours of operation
by
qualified
per-
sonnel. Airplanes which are not
used
for
hire
are
required
to
have
an
inspection
by
qualified
personnel
on an annual
basis.
Good operating
practice
requires
that the airplane
be pre-
flighted
prior
to takeoff. Items found during
preflight
and
engine
run-up
should be corrected on the basis of their im-
portanée
to the
safe
operation of
the
airplane; however, in
any
event, early correction
of items found is good
pre-
ventative
maintenance.
Although it is not
a
requirement
that
FAA qualified
per-
sonnel change the
oil
and
inspect
the airplane, except at
the
100-hour/annual
inspection,
as noted above, it
is
recommended
the airplane be given an
inspection
at the
recommended
oil change
period.
Any
unsatisfactory
items
should be corrected,
either at that time or as
soon
as
practical,
depending
on the nature of
the
item.
The
inspection
at the
recommended
oil change
interval
should
include
the following:
