2.1.2. Circumstantial inspection
Level of certification needed: LSA Repairman Inspection
It is performed whenever abnormal events take place: damages during shipment, hard landings or landings on unscheduled areas, evidence of malfunctioning etc.
During this inspection special attention should be paid to any damaged design elements (dents, overstress or malfunctioning). The technical condition of the skins and protection coatings as well as any fuel leakage may also provide important information on some local stresses.
In case of any evidence of excessive stress, carefully inspect all critical elements: joint fittings and local structure in the fastening areas, control surfaces and their hinges, flight controls (they should travel smoothly and without jamming tendencies), fastening of landing gear and engine mount etc. and check the leveling data.
2.2. Regular inspections; sequence of inspections and overhauls
The airplane maintenance tasks and overhauls are performed according to the following schedule:
C = inspection after the first 25 ±2 hours of flight;
K = inspection after the first 50±3 hours of flight and after every 100 hours of flight;
R = overhaul after 200±5 hours of flight or after one year of operation;
RK = major overhaul - after inspecting the technical condition.
Any task on the engine shall be performed as per the Maintenance Manual for Rotax 912 S engines;
