8.3 AIRPLANE INSPECTION PERIODS
All inspection intervals, replacement time limits, overhaul
time limits, the method of inspection, life limits, cycle limits,
etc., recommended by PIPER are solely based on the use
of new, remanufactured or overhauled PIPER approved
parts. If parts are designed, manufactured, remanufactured,
overhauled and/or approved by entities other than PIPER,
then the data in PIPER'S maintenance/service manuals and
parts catalogs are no longer applicable and the purchaser
is warned not to rely on such data for non-PIPER parts.
All inspection intervaJs, replacement time limits, overhaul
time limits, the method of inspection, life limits, cycle limits,
etc., for such non-PIPER parts must be obtained from the
manufacturer and/or seller of such non-PIPER parts.
Piper has developed inspection items and required inspection intervals
for the PA-28-181 (see the latest revision of the PA-28-181 Maintenance
and Inspection Manuals). The PA-28- I 81 Inspection Manual contains
appropriate forms, and all inspection procedures should be complied with
by a properly trained, knowledgeable, and qualified mechanic at a Piper
Authorized Service Center or a reputable repair shop. Piper cannot accept
responsibility for the continued airworthiness of any aircraft not maintained
to these standards, and/or not brought into compliance with applicable
Service Bulletins issued by Piper, instructions issued by the engine,
propeller, or accessory manufacturers, or Airworthiness Directives issued
by the FAA.
A programmed Inspection, approved by the Federal Aviation
(FAA),
Administration
and detailed inspections to allow maximum utilization of the airplane.
Maintenance inspection costs are reduced, and the maximum standard of
continued airworthiness is maintained. Complete details are available from
Piper.
In addition, but in conjunction with the above, the FAA requires periodic
inspections on all aircraft to keep the Airworthiness Certificate in effect.
The owner is responsible for assuring compliance with these inspection
requirements and for maintaining proper documentation in logbooks and/or
maintenance records.
