MAINTENANCE MANUAL STEMME S12
5. TIME LIMITS / MAINTENANCE CHECKS
NOTICE
Violation of checks and recommended overhaul or replacement intervals as dened in chapter
5 may impair proper function of the aircraft and/or aircraft systems.
This chapter denes intervals for overhauling, rebuilding, and replacing components; provides
guidance for scheduled and unscheduled maintenance; and species the minimum scope of
required periodic inspections required by the Federal Aviation Regulations. Chapter 5 consists
of the following sections:
•
Section 5.1: Overhaul and Replacement Schedule, lists manufacturer–recommended
times–in service for overhauling, rebuilding, and replacing components.
• Section 5.2: Pre-Flight Inspections are dened in the S12 Aircraft Flight Manual.
•
Section 5.3: Periodic Inspections, discusses mandatory periodic inspections generally
with the caveat that less benign operating conditions reasonably entail more frequent
inspections than the required minimum intervals provide.
• Section 5.4: Checklist for Periodic Inspections, lists the type and subject of mandatory
periodic inspections, organized by aircraft system or area and the recommended intervals
at which items must be inspected based on normal usage under average environmental
conditions.
• Section 5.5: Special Inspections, covers unscheduled maintenance, such as after hard
landings, prop strikes or intense turbulence.
Maintenance, pre-ight Inspections and preventive maintenance must be carried out by qualied
and appropriately authorized personnel. In any case relevant national law must be respected.
Extreme environmental conditions, e.g. arid desert or humid lowlands, present added, albeit dif-
ferent maintenance and inspection challenges for the prudent owner and operator. In any event,
the owner and operator must consider the operating conditions in which the aircraft is operated
and stored when determining if the minimum specied inspections and intervals are adequate.
The owner and operator must share all relevant information with the responsible authorized
maintenance person (according to the requirements detailed in the Federal Aviation Regulations
or European Publications) who maintains or inspects the aircraft.
As with all certied aircraft, following each required annual or 100 hr Inspection, the aircraft must
be returned to service by the responsible authorized maintenance person (according to applicable
national regulations) before further ight.
