Plane Sense introduces aircraft owners and operators, or prospective aircraft owners and operators, to

basic information about the requirements involved in acquiring, owning, operating, and maintaining

a private aircraft.

This handbook can be a valuable reference tool for anyone who would like to review the “nuts and bolts”

of aircraft ownership. Aircraft owners and operators, or anyone considering aircraft ownership, should

be familiar with Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR), which details regulations for aircraft

owners, operators, pilots, aircraft mechanics, and maintenance providers. Since the requirements can

be updated and the regulations can change, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) recommends that

you contact your nearest FAA Flight Standards District Office (FSDO), where the personnel can assist

you with the various requirements for aircraft ownership, operation, and maintenance.

The FAA has also added information for aviation enthusiasts who own (or are interested in owning) light-

sport aircraft, a new and evolving sector of the general aviation marketplace.

This handbook highlights regulations and regulatory guidance material, as well as providing advice

regarding where to locate answers to your questions. While Plane Sense cannot cover every issue faced

by aircraft owners and operators, this handbook is intended to be a useful guide and will help you locate

the resources to assist you.

This publication supersedes FAA-8083-19, which was reprinted with editorial updates in 2003.

This handbook is available free of charge for download, in PDF format, from the FAA Regulatory Support

Division (AFS-600) on the FAA website at www.faa.gov.

Plane Sense is a handbook for aviation enthusiasts, especially aircraft owners and operators or those who are

interested in becoming aircraft owners, who are looking for a quick reference guide on a number of general

aviation topics. This handbook is published by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

The FAA is the executive agency responsible for aviation oversight in the United States. The FAA’s mission is

to provide the safest, most efficient aerospace system in the world.

The FAA is responsible for the safety of civil aviation. The Federal Aviation Act of 1958 created the agency

under the name Federal Aviation Agency. The FAA adopted its present name in 1967 when it became a part of

the Department of Transportation (DOT). The FAA’s major roles include:

•Regulating civil aviation to promote safety

•Encouraging and developing civil aeronautics, including new aviation technology

•Developing and operating a system of air traffic control and navigation for both civil and military aircraft

•Researching and developing the National Airspace System (NAS) and civil aeronautics

•Developing and carrying out programs to control aircraft noise and other environmental effects of civil

aviation

•Regulating U.S. commercial space transportation

FAA Headquarters is located in Washington, D.C. However, the FAA is organized into eight geographical

regions and the Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. FAA regions are

organized as follows:

•Alaskan (Alaska)

•Central (Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Missouri, Nebraska, Tennessee)

•Eastern (Connecticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire,

New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia)

•Great Lakes (Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, Wisconsin)

•Northwest Mountain (Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Utah, Washington, Wyoming)

•Southern Region (Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Puerto Rico, South Carolina, Virgin Islands)

•Southwest Region (Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas)

•Western-Pacific Region (Arizona, California, Hawaii, Nevada)

Within each region, you will find several Flight Standards District Offices (FSDOs). Your local FSDO is your

best resource for questions about aircraft ownership, operation, maintenance, regulatory compliance, and other

issues. FAA inspectors are generally assigned to a FSDO. Aviation safety inspectors (ASIs) can assist you with

issues related to the operation of your aircraft, airman certification, maintenance, and other general questions.

You can find your local FSDO on the FAA website at www.faa.gov by selecting “About FAA” from the top menu

bar and following the links to locate your local FSDO’s contact information.

Aircraft certification-related activities are handled by the FAA Aircraft Certification Office (ACO) that serves

your geographic area.

B-1 Table of Contents Plane Sense xiv 1 Aircraft owner responsibilities A ircraft ownership is a serious undertaking, and you should be familiar with the obligations and responsibilities of aircraft ownership before you make the decision to purchase an aircraft. Aircraft owners have a variety of responsibilities that have their foundation in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). documentation Do you know your ARROW? Before you fly, you need to ensure that you have all of the required documentation on your aircraft. You are responsible for carrying the following documentation on your aircraft at all times: A—Airworthiness Certificate R—Registration Certificate R— Radio Station License (Federal Communications Communication (FCC) Radio Station License, if required by the type of operation) O— Operating Limitations (which may be in the form of a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)-approved Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) and/or Pilot’s Operating Handbook (POH)) W—Weight and Balance Documents Some of these documents are addressed in this chapter, and others are covered in later chapters. Figure 1-1 at the end if this chapter is an ARROW checklist you can use to ensure you have all of the required documents. You can expect an FAA aviation safety inspector (ASI) to ask for these documents any time he or she is inspecting your aircraft and/or assisting you with a question regarding your aircraft. m CAUTION: A radio station license is required for any international operations. You must complete an FCC Form 605, Quick-Form Application for Authorization in the Ship, Aircraft, Amateur, Restricted and Commercial Operator, and General Mobile Radio Services, available at www.fcc.gov to obtain an FCC radio station license. Aircraft registration The FAA Civil Aviation Registry Aircraft Registration Branch (AFS-750) maintains registration records on individual aircraft and serves as a repository for airworthiness documents received from FAA field offices. As an aircraft owner, you are responsible for immediately notifying AFS-750 of any change of permanent mailing address, the sale or export of your aircraft, or the loss of your ability to register an aircraft in accordance with Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 47, section 47.41. 1-1 1-2 Plane Sense Figure 1-2 at the end of this chapter is a sample FAA Change of Address Notification you can use to inform AFS-750. Aircraft registration is addressed in more detail in chapter 4. 14 CFr 14 CFR includes rules prescribed by the FAA gover- ning all aviation activities in the United States. A wide variety of activities are regulated, such as airplane design, typical airline flights, pilot training activities, hot-air ballooning, and even model rocket launches. The rules are designed to promote safe aviation while protecting pilots, passengers, and the general public from unnecessary risk. As an aircraft owner, you are responsible for compli- ance and familiarity with the applicable 14 CFR part(s) concerning the operation and maintenance of your aircraft. While the regulations cited below are not exhaustive, they are a starting point as you consider aircraft ownership. It is essential that you remember that you are responsible for complying with all 14 CFR parts applicable to your aircraft and aircraft operations. •As an aircraft owner, you should be familiar with the provisions of 14 CFR Part 43, Maintenance, Preventive Maintenance, Rebuilding, and Altera- tion, and 14 CFR Part 91, General Operating and Flight Rules. •If you are also a pilot, you should be familiar with the provisions of 14 CFR Part 61, Certification: Pilots, Flight Instructors, and Ground Instructors, and 14 CFR Part 67, Medical Standards and Certification. Questions regarding 14 CFR can be addressed to your local Flight Standards District Office (FSDO). Information about obtaining copies of 14 CFR parts and FAA publications can be found in chapter 11. logbooks Each aircraft has a unique set of logbooks that document historical data dating back to the manufacturing date of the aircraft. As an aircraft owner, you have a regulatory obligation to ensure that your logbooks are complete and kept up to date. Aircraft logbooks enable the aircraft owner to keep records of the entire aircraft in chronological order including: inspections, tests, repairs, alterations, Airworthiness Directive (AD) compliance, service bulletins, and equipment additions, removals, or exchanges. Most logbooks also include sections for major alterations and altimeter/static system checks. Anyone performing maintenance on your aircraft will need complete aircraft logbooks to review the aircraft’s compliance history before performing maintenance on your aircraft. Information about aircraft maintenance and aircraft maintenance records can be found in chapters 7 and 8, respectively. Aircraft insurance Aircraft insurance is an important consideration for any aircraft owner. The type(s) and amount of insurance you should carry on your aircraft are influenced by several factors, and you should discuss these decisions with an insurance agent familiar with providing aviation insurance policies. Depending on the usage of your aircraft and who might be flying the aircraft, you may need Owners, Renters and/or Certified Flight Instructor (CFI) insurance policies for your aircraft. Responsible aircraft owners always carry sufficient insurance on their aircraft. m CAUTION: You should ensure that you are in compliance with any state insurance requirements relating to aircraft ownership. reporting Aircraft Accidents/incidents Aircraft owners are responsible for complying with Title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations (49 CFR) part 830 regarding the reporting of aircraft accidents and incidents. You are required to notify the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) immediately of aviation accidents and certain incidents. Accident An accident is defined in 49 CFR part 830 as “an occurrence associated with the operation of an aircraft that takes place between the time any person boards the aircraft with the intention of flight and all such persons have disembarked, and in which any person suffers death or serious injury, or in which the aircraft receives substantial damage.” Incident An incident is defined in 49 CFR part 830 as “an occurrence other than an accident that affects or could affect the safety of operations.” Contacting the NTSB Contact the nearest NTSB regional office to file a report. Reports of accidents or incidents should be 1 1-3 Chapter 1: Aircraft Owner Responsibilities made to the NTSB regional office associated with the state in which the accident or incident occurred. NTSB regions are organized as follows: •Eastern (Alabama, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mississippi, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Puerto Rico, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Vermont, Virgin Islands, Virginia, West Virginia); •Central (Arkansas, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas, Wisconsin); •Western (American Samoa, Arizona, California, Guam, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Washington, Wyoming); and •Alaska (Alaska). Contact information for the NTSB regional offices is located at the end of this chapter in Figure 1-3 and on the NTSB website at www.ntsb.gov. Your local FSDO can also direct you to the correct NTSB regional office in the event of an aircraft accident or incident. For the purpose of notifying the NTSB, a phone call is sufficient initially, but a written followup is required. You will probably be directed to complete NTSB Form 6120.1, Pilot/Operator Aircraft Accident/Incident Report, which is available on the NTSB website at www.ntsb.gov, from the nearest NTSB regional office, or from your local FSDO. Filing NTSB Form 6120.1 In accordance with 49 CFR part 830, section 830.5, you must file a report with the NTSB regional office nearest the accident or incident within 10 days after an accident for which notification is required. Complete Form 6120.1, sign it, and send it by mail or fax to the applicable NTSB regional office. Figure 1-4 at the end of this chapter is a sample NTSB Form 6120.1. Aviation safety reporting system The Aviation Safety Reporting System (ASRS) is an important facet of the continuing effort by government, industry, and individuals to maintain and improve aviation safety. The ASRS, which is administered by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), collects voluntarily submitted aviation safety incident/situation reports from pilots, controllers, and others. The ASRS acts on the information these reports contain. It identifies system deficiencies and issues alerting messages to persons in a position to correct them. The database is a public repository which serves the needs of FAA and NASA and those of other organizations worldwide engaged in research and the promotion of safe flight. Purpose The ASRS collects, analyzes, and responds to voluntarily submitted aviation safety incident reports in order to lessen the likelihood of aviation accidents. ASRS data is used to: •Identify deficiencies and discrepancies in the National Airspace (NAS) so that these can be remedied by appropriate authorities. •Support policy formulation and planning for, and improvements to, the NAS. •Strengthen the foundation of aviation human factors safety research. This is particularly important since it is generally conceded that over two-thirds of all aviation accidents and incidents are caused by human performance errors. Confidentiality Pilots, air traffic controllers, flight attendants, mechanics, ground personnel, and others involved in aviation operations submit reports to the ASRS when they are involved in, or observe, an incident or situation in which aviation safety was compromised. All submissions are voluntary. Reports sent to the ASRS are held in strict confidence. ASRS de-identifies reports before entering them into the incident database. All personal and organizational names are removed. Dates, times, and related information that can be used to infer an identity are either generalized or eliminated. Filing an Incident Report An ASRS Incident Report is often referred to as a “NASA Strip.”When submitting an ASRS Incident Report, or NASA Strip, the submitter completes the form and sends it to the address indicated, and NASA returns the identification strip to the submitter as confirmation of receipt of the form. You can obtain more information, a copy of the incident report form, or file the form electronically on the NASA website at http://asrs.arc.nasa.gov. Figure 1-5 at the end of this chapter is a sample ASRS Incident Report. 1 1-4 Plane Sense

SAMPLE 1 1-20 Plane Sense 1 2-1 Buying an Aircraft 2T he purchase of an aircraft represents a major commitment that should be approached carefully and cautiously, especially when buying a used aircraft. For many aircraft owners, it represents the largest single lifetime investment next to buying a home. Quite often, the purchase price of an aircraft approximates or exceeds the price of a new home. Particularly when buying a used aircraft, it is wise to have the selected aircraft inspected by a qualified person or facility before you complete the transaction. The condition of the air- craft and the state of its maintenance records can be determined by persons familiar with the particular make and model. Pre-purchase inspections should be performed by a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) certificated airframe and powperplant mechanic (A&P) or an approved repair station. The Buying an Aircraft Checklist (Figure 2-1 at the end of this chapter) is a suggested list of items to consider when purchasing an aircraft. selecting the Aircraft One of the most common mistakes in purchasing an aircraft is to make a decision too quickly. Take the time to analyze your requirements carefully and be realistic. Consider the typical flight loading, trip distance, and conditions of flight, then compare aircraft. If possible, rent the type of aircraft that interests you to determine how well it meets your requirements. Keep in mind that the biggest expense of owning an aircraft is not always the initial purchase price. Where to Look Once you have chosen the type of aircraft that will fit your needs, shop around and do some pricing. For retail and wholesale price information, check with an aviation trade association, bank, other financial institution, or Fixed Base Operator (FBO) for the latest aircraft bluebook values. There are several good publications available that advertise aircraft for sale. Your local FBO can be very helpful as you look for the right aircraft. m CAUTION: Try to keep your search for an aircraft close to home. If a problem pops up after the sale, you may not find the long-distance seller as willing to help you as someone closer to home. 2-2 Plane Sense Factors Affecting Resale Value Know the major factors that affect resale value. Generally speaking they are: •Engine hours—perhaps the most common in- fluence on resale value. The closer an engine is to its recommended time between overhaul (TBO), the lower the value. There are many factors that affect engine health, and a high-time engine is not necessarily bad. Regular use helps keep seals and other engine components lubricated and in good shape. •Installed equipment—such as avionics, air condi- tioning, deicing gear and interior equipment. The most valuable equipment is usually avionics, which can easily double the value of some older aircraft. The newer the technology, the higher the value of the aircraft. •Airworthiness directives (ADs)—issued by the FAA for safety reasons. Once issued, owners are required to comply with the AD within the time period allotted. It is important to look at the AD history of an aircraft and ensure the logbooks show compliance with all applicable ADs. ADs are discussed in greater detail in chapter 9. •Damage history—it may be difficult to locate a complete damage history for an aircraft. Any aircraft with a damage history should be closely scrutinized to ensure it has been properly repaired in accordance with the applicable Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) parts and recommended practices. •aint/Interior—as is the case with homes, paint can be used to give “tired” aircraft a quick facelift. Check new paint jobs carefully for evidence of corrosion under the surface. Interior items should be checked for proper fit and condition. Overhauls Be careful of the terminology used to describe engine condition. Do not confuse a top overhaul with a major overhaul, or a major overhaul with a factory remanufactured “zero-time” engine. A top overhaul involves the repair of engine components outside of the crankcase. A major overhaul involves the complete disassembly, inspection, repair, and reassembly of an engine to specified limits. If an engine has had a top or major overhaul, the logbooks must still show the total time on the engine, if known, and its prior maintenance history. A “zero-time” engine is one that has been overhauled to factory new limits by the original manufacturer and is issued a new logbook without previous operating history. Aircraft records Aircraft records maintained by the FAA are on file at the Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Copies of aircraft records are available for review in CD format or paper. For information on ordering and costs, contact the FAA Civil Aviation Registry Aircraft Registration Branch (AFS-750). Copies of aircraft records may also be requested online. Visit www.faa.gov and select the “Aircraft Registration” link. There may be other records on file at federal, state, or local agencies that are not recorded with the FAA. AFS-750 contact information is in the FAA Contact Information appendix on pages A1–A2 of this handbook. Make sure the following documents are available and in proper order for the aircraft: •Airworthiness Certificate •Engine and airframe logbooks •Aircraft equipment list •Weight and balance data, placards •FAA-approved Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) and/or Pilot’s Operating Handbook (POH) m CAUTION: Missing documents, pages, or entries from aircraft logbooks may cause significant problems for the purchaser and reduce the value of the aircraft. Aircraft title The Federal Aviation Act requires the FAA to main- tain a recording system for aircraft bills of sale, security agreements, mortgages, and other liens. This is done at AFS-750, which also processes applications for, and issues, aircraft registration certificates. The two systems are linked together because you must prove ownership in order to be entitled to register an aircraft. “Clear title” is a term commonly used by aircraft title search companies to indicate there are no liens (e.g., chattel mortgage, security agreement, tax lien, artisan lien) in the FAA aircraft records. Title searches for the aviation public are not performed by AFS-750; however, the aircraft records contain all of the ownership and security documents that have been filed with the FAA. AFS-750 records acceptable security instruments. In addition, some states authorize artisan liens (mechanic liens). These also need to be recorded. Be sure to check your state’s statutes regarding liens. 2 2-3

Chapter 2: Buying an Aircraft m CAUTION: Federal liens against an owner (drug, repossession, etc.) may not show up on your title search. State law determines lien and security interests. Although there is no federal requirement to file lien or security instruments with the FAA, the parties to these transactions can file their qualifying documents with AFS-750. You may search the aircraft records, or have this done by an attorney or aircraft title search company. m CAUTION: FAA registration cannot be used in any civil proceeding to establish proof of ownership. There is no substitute for examining the aircraft’s records to secure an ownership history and to determine if there are any outstanding liens or mortgages. This procedure should help avoid a delay in registering an aircraft. Filing Ownership and Lien Documents Filing ownership and lien documents constitutes formal notice to the world of the ownership and security interests recorded. A person who engages in a financial transaction involving a U.S. registered aircraft who does not have a title search performed is taking a risk. Under the law, that person will be charged with knowing what is on file with the FAA, even if he or she does not actually know. A simple title search will show the federally recorded ownership and lien status of any aircraft registered in the United States. When a Lien Is Recorded When a security agreement or lien document is recorded, the FAA sends an Aeronautical Center (AC) Form 8050-41, Conveyance Recordation Notice, to the secured party. This notice describes the affected aircraft (and other eligible collateral such as engines, propellers and air carrier spare parts locations). It also identifies the recorded document by its date, the parties, the FAA recording number, and date of recordation. This recordation notice is sent as a confirmation that the lien has been recorded and added to the aircraft record. Releasing a Recorded Lien The FAA Form 8050-41 may be used as a release if the secured party signs below the release statement and returns the form to the AFS-750. The FAA may also accept as a release a document that describes the affected collateral, specifically identifies the lien, and contains a statement releasing all lienholder rights and interest in the described collateral from the terms of the identified lien. The release document must be signed in ink by the secured party and show the signer’s title, as appropriate. A new AC Form 8050-41 may be requested by con- tacting AFS-750. You will need to describe the aircraft and the lien document sufficiently to identify the specific document needing release. AFS-750 contact information is in the FAA Contact Information appendix on pages A1–A2 of this handbook. Aircraft documents There are numerous documents that should be reviewed and transferred when you purchase an aircraft. Bill of Sale or Conditional Sales Contract The bill of sale or conditional sales contract is your proof of purchase of the aircraft and will be recorded with the FAA to protect your ownership interest. Airworthiness Certificate The aircraft should have either FAA Form 8100-2, Standard Airworthiness Certificate, or FAA Form 8130-7, Special Airworthiness Certificate. Maintenance Records The previous owner of the aircraft should provide the aircraft’s maintenance records containing the following information: •The total time in service of the airframe, each engine, and each propeller; •The current status of life-limited parts of each airframe, engine, propeller, rotor, and appliance; •The time since last overhaul of all items installed on the aircraft that are required to be overhauled on a specified time basis; •The identification of the current inspection status of the aircraft, including the time since the last inspection required by the inspection program under which the aircraft and its appliances are maintained; •The current status of applicable ADs, including for each the method of compliance, the AD number, revision date, and if the AD involves recurring action, the time and date when the next action is required; and •A copy of current major alterations to each airframe, engine, propeller, rotor, and appliance. 2 2-4 Plane Sense

manuals Manufacturers produce owner’s manuals, main- tenance manuals, service letters and bulletins, and other technical data pertaining to their aircraft. These may be available from the previous owner, but are not required to be transferred to a purchaser. If the service manuals are not available from the previous owner, you can usually obtain them from the aircraft manufacturer. Airworthiness Two conditions must be met for a standard category aircraft to be considered airworthy: •The aircraft conforms to its type design (type certificate). Conformity to type design is attained when the required and proper components are installed that are consistent with the drawings, specifications, and other data that are part of the type certificate. Conformity includes applicable Supplemental Type Certificate(s) (STC) and field-approval alterations. •The aircraft is in condition for safe operation, referring to the condition of the aircraft with relation to wear and deterioration. maintenance 14 CFR part 91, section 91.403, places primary responsibility upon the owner for maintaining the aircraft in an airworthy condition. This includes compliance with applicable ADs. The owner is responsible for ensuring that maintenance personnel make appropriate entries in the aircraft main- tenance records, indicating that the aircraft has been approved for return to service. In addition, the owner is responsible for having maintenance performed that may be required between scheduled inspections. Inoperative instruments or equipment that can be deferred under 14 CFR part 91, section 91.213(d)(2), will be placarded and maintenance recorded in accordance with 14 CFR part 43, section 43.9. Pre-Purchase inspection Before buying an aircraft, you should have a mechanic you trust give the aircraft a thorough inspection and provide you with a written report of its condition. While a pre-purchase inspection need not be an annual inspection, it should include at least a dif- ferential compression check on each cylinder of the engine and any other inspections necessary to determine the condition of the aircraft. In addition to a mechanical inspection, the aircraft logbooks and other records should be carefully reviewed for such things as FAA Form 337, Report of Major Repair or Alteration, AD compliance, the status of service bulletins and letters, and aircraft/component serial numbers. light-sport Aircraft Light-sport aircraft is a growing sector of the general aviation community, specific to the United States. Several resources are available if you have questions about acquiring a light-sport aircraft. You can contact the FAA Light Sport Aviation Branch (AFS-610), your local FAA Flight Standards District Office (FSDO), or the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) for assistance. Chapter 6 discusses light-sport aircraft in greater detail. AFS-610 contact information is in the FAA Contact Information appendix on pages A1–A2 of this handbook. Amateur-Built Aircraft There are several unique considerations when purchasing an amateur-built aircraft. The pros- pective buyer is advised to have someone familiar with the type of aircraft check the aircraft of interest for workmanship, general construction integrity, and compliance with the applicable 14 CFR parts. You can contact your local FAA Manufacturing Inspection District Office (MIDO) or FSDO to speak with an FAA aviation safety inspector (ASI) who can explain the requirements for experimental certification. 2 2-5

Chapter 2: Buying an Aircraft Things to consider when buying an amateur-built aircraft: •Examine the Special Airworthiness Certificate and its operating limitations. This certificate is used for all aircraft that fall under experimental status and states for what purpose it was issued. The operating limitations specify any operating restrictions that may apply to the aircraft. •Check the aircraft maintenance records of the airframe, engine, propeller, and accessories. Under 14 CFR part 91, sections 91.305 and 91.319(b), all initial flight operations of experimental aircraft may be limited to an assigned flight test area. This is called Phase I. The aircraft is flown in this designated area until it is shown to be controllable throughout its normal range of speeds and all maneuvers to be executed, and that it has not displayed any hazardous operating characteristics or design features. The required flight time may vary for each type of aircraft and is covered in the operating limitations. •After the flight time requirements are met, the owner/operator endorses the aircraft logbook with a statement certifying that the prescribed flight hours are completed and the aircraft complies with 14 CFR part 91, section 91.319(b). Phase I records are retained for the life of the aircraft. •In Phase II, the FAA may prescribe Operating Limitations for an unlimited duration, as appropriate. •Before taking delivery of the aircraft, make a final pre-purchase inspection. Ensure that the Special Airworthiness Certificate, Operating Limitations, Aircraft Data Plate, Weight and Balance data, Aircraft Maintenance Records, and any other required documents are with the aircraft. If the Special Airworthiness Certificate, Operating Limitations, and Aircraft Data Plate are surrendered to the FAA by the original builder, you may not be able to recertificate the aircraft because you are not the builder. •Amateur-built aircraft require a condition in- spection within the previous 12 calendar months. This inspection requirement and those who are eligible to work on the aircraft are addressed in the Operating Limitations of that particular aircraft. military surplus Aircraft Certain surplus military aircraft are not eligible for FAA certification in the STANDARD, RESTRICTED, or LIMITED classifications. The FAA, in cooperation with the Department of Defense (DOD), normally performs preliminary “screening” inspections on surplus military aircraft to determine the civil certification potential of the aircraft. For aircraft eligible for potential certification, you must “show”the FAA that your aircraft conforms to the FAA-approved type design (type certificate), and that the aircraft is in a condition for safe operation (airworthy). This means you are required to provide the technical data necessary to support this showing. For example, certain military surplus aircraft may be eligible for certification in the RESTRICTED category and modified for special purpose operations. Military-derived RESTRICTED category aircraft may be manufactured in the United States or in a foreign country, but military surplus aircraft must be surplus of the U.S. Armed Forces. The FAA bases its certification on the operation and maintenance of the aircraft including review of the service life of the aircraft and any modifications. When an aircraft has been modified by the military, you must either return the aircraft to the originally approved civil configuration, or obtain FAA design approval for the military modification. This is accomplished through the STC process. The STC process is also necessary for modifications to the aircraft for a special purpose operation (e.g., crop dusting). Once the FAA determines that the military surplus aircraft conforms to the FAAapproved type design, as noted in FAA Order 8130.2 (as revised), Airworthiness Certification of Aircraft and Related Products, and military records, you may apply for an airworthiness certificate. Since no civil aircraft may be flown unless certificated, you should discuss this with an ASI at your local FSDO, who can advise you of eligible aircraft and certification procedures. An additional source for advice on amateur-built and surplus military aircraft is the EAA. 2 2-6 Plane Sense Figure 2-1. Buying an Aircraft Checklist.

The certificate must be displayed in the aircraft so that it is legible to passengers or crew whenever the aircraft is operated. The airworthiness certificate is transferred with the aircraft, except when it is sold to a foreign purchaser. An airworthiness certificate is an FAA document that grants authorization to operate an aircraft in flight. The FAA provides information regarding the definition of the term “airworthy”in FAA Order 8130.2 (as revised), Airworthiness Certification of Aircraft and Related Products, chapter 1. Classifcations of Airworthiness Certifcates The FAA initially determines that your aircraft is in condition for safe operation and conforms to type design or American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) International standards, then issues an airworthiness certificate. There are two different classifications of airworthiness certificates: Standard Airworthiness and Special Airworthiness. Standard Airworthiness Certificate FAA Form 8100-2, Standard Airworthiness Certificate is the FAA’s official authorization allowing for the operation of type certificated aircraft in the following categories: •Normal •Utility •Acrobatic •Commuter •Transport •Manned free balloons •Special classes A standard airworthiness certificate remains valid as long as the aircraft meets its approved type design, is in a condition for safe operation and maintenance, preventive maintenance, and alterations are performed in accordance with 14 CFR parts 21, 43, and 91. Airworthiness Certifcate 3-2 Plane Sense Special Airworthiness Certificate FAA Form 8130-7, Special Airworthiness Certificate, is an FAA authorization to operate an aircraft in U.S. airspace in one or more of categories in Figure 3-1.

Your local FAA Flight Standards District Office (FSDO) processes requests for replacement airworthiness certificates. You should contact your local FSDO immediately upon discovering that you need a replacement airworthiness certificate for your aircraft. Applying for an Airworthiness Certifcate A registered owner may apply for an airworthiness certificate by submitting FAA Form 8130-6, Applica- tion for U.S. Airworthiness Certificate, to your local FAA Manufacturing Inspection District Office (MIDO). You can find your local MIDO contact information on the FAA website at www.faa.gov. Figure 3-2 at the end of this chapter is a sample FAA Form 8130-6. You can find instructions for completing FAA Form 8130-6 on the FAA website at www.faa.gov or in FAA Order 8130.2 (as revised). The FAA will issue the applicable certificate if the aircraft is eligible and in a condition for safe operation. FAA Form 8100-2, Standard Airworthiness Certificate FAA Form 8100-2, Standard Airworthiness Certificate, is issued for aircraft type certificated in the normal, utility, acrobatic, commuter, and transport categories, or for manned free balloons. The airworthiness certificate remains in effect as long as the aircraft receives the required main- tenance and is properly registered in the United States. Flight safety relies, in part, on the condition of the aircraft, which may be determined on inspection by mechanics, approved repair stations, or manufacturers that meet specific requirements of 14 CFR part 43. Figure 3-3 at the end of this chapter is a sample FAA Form 8100-2. FAA Form 8130-7, Special Airworthiness Certificate FAA Form 8130-7, Special Airworthiness Certificate, is issued for all aircraft certificated in other than the Standard classifications, such as Experimental, Restricted, Limited, Provisional, and Light-Sport. If you are interested in purchasing an aircraft classed as other than Standard, you should contact the local MIDO or FSDO for an explanation of airworthiness requirements and the limitations of such a certificate. The Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) is an additional source of information on special airworthi- ness certificates. Figure 3-4 at the end of this chapter is a sample FAA Form 8130-7. m CAUTION: The FAA can revoke an existing airworthiness certificate in any category (14 CFR part 21, section 21.181), if the aircraft no longer meets its approved design and/or is not in an airworthy condition. regulations and Policies There are a number of regulations and policy documents that provide additional guidance on the subject of airworthiness.

The FAA updates the “Aircraft Registration Inquiry”site at midnight on each federal workday. You can find new information immediately following this update. Please allow up to 20 days for processing N-number reservations and renewals and up to 30 days for all other non-priority actions. m CAUTION: The act of registration is not evidence of ownership of an aircraft in any proceeding in which ownership by a particular person is in issue. The FAA does not issue any certificate of ownership or endorse any information with respect to ownership on a Certificate of Aircraft Registration. The FAA issues a Certificate of Aircraft Registration to the person who appears to be the owner on the basis of the evidence of ownership submitted with the Aircraft Registration Application, or recorded at the FAA Aircraft Registry. Failure to properly register your aircraft may invalidate insurance, as well as have other serious consequences. You may need to follow up with AFS-750 to ensure that your aircraft registration was accomplished successfully. 4-2 4 Plane Sense m CAUTION: An aircraft may not be registered in a foreign country during the period it is registered in the United States. eligible registrants An aircraft is eligible for registration in the United States if it is owned by: •A U.S. citizen (as defined in Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR), part 47, section 47.2, a U.S. citizen can be an individual, or partnership where each individual is a U.S. citizen, or a corporation organized under the laws of the United States of which the president and at least two-thirds of the board of directors are U.S. citizens and 75 percent of the voting interest is owned or controlled by U.S. citizens) •A resident alien •A corporation other than one classified as a U.S. citizen, lawfully organized under the laws of the United States or of any state thereof, if the aircraft is based and used primarily in the United States •A government entity (federal, state or local) registering Your Aircraft To register an aircraft, you must send the following documentation and fee to AFS-750: •Aeronautical Center (AC) Form 8050-1, Aircraft Registration Application, •Evidence of ownership (such as a bill of sale), and •The registration fee made payable to the FAA. You must use an original AC Form 8050-1 when applying for a Certificate of Aircraft Registration. AC 8050-1 may be obtained from AFS-750 or your local FAA Flight Standards District Office (FSDO). If you use a P.O. Box as a mailing address, you must also provide your street or physical location on the application. m CAUTION: The FAA does not accept photocopies or alternate formats of AC 8050-1. Your application for aircraft registration must include the typed or printed name of each applicant with his or her signature in the signature block. m CAUTION: An aircraft may be registered only by and in the legal name of its owner. m CAUTION: The FAA will return any applications that do not include the printed or typed name of the signer. Figure 4-1 at the end of this chapter is an aircraft registration checklist you can use to assist you in the registration process. registration number The United States received the “N”as its nationality designator under the International Air Navigation Convention, held in 1919. How To Form an N-Number N-numbers consist of a series of alphanumeric characters. U.S. registration numbers may not exceed five characters in addition to the standard U.S. registration prefix letter “N.”These characters may be: •One to five numbers (N12345), •One to four numbers followed by one letter (N1234Z), or •One to three numbers followed by two letters (N123AZ). To avoid confusion with the numbers one and zero, the letters I and O are not used. Also, please note that a hyphen (-) is no longer used in U.S. registration numbers. Other Requirements An N-number may not begin with zero. You must precede the first zero in an N-number with any number 1 through 9. For example, N01Z is not valid. Registration numbers N1 through N99 are strictly reserved for FAA internal use. special registration number A special registration number is an N-number of your choice which may be reserved, if available. Special registration numbers may be: •Used to change the N-number currently on your aircraft. •Assigned to a new home-built, import, or newly manufactured aircraft in preparation for registering that aircraft. •Reserved for 1 year. Upon reservation, the FAA will mail a confirmation notice to the requester. A renewal notice will also be sent prior to the expiration date. An online reservation request program is available on the FAA website at www.faa.gov. •Renewed annually. The renewal fee is $10 each year. An online renewal program is available on the FAA website at www.faa.gov. Chapter 4: Aircraft Registration 4-3 Chapter 4: Aircraft Registration 4 Requesting a Special Registration Number You may reserve a special N-number from the List of Available N-numbers for immediate use on a specific aircraft or for future use. This number may not exceed five characters in addition to the prefix letter “N.”All five characters may be numbers (N11111) or four numbers and one suffix letter (N1000A), or one to three numbers and/or two suffix letters may be used (N100AA). In your written request, list up to five numbers in order of preference in the event your first choice is not available, and include the fee. The fee for a Special Registration Number is $10.00. Forward your request to AFS-750. If your request is approved, you will be notified that the number has been reserved for 1 year, and that the reservation may be extended on an annual basis for a $10 renewal fee. Placing the Special Registration Number on Your Aircraft When you are ready to place the number on your aircraft, you should request permission by forwarding a complete description of the aircraft to AFS-750. Permission to place the special number on your aircraft is given on AC Form 8050-64, Assignment of Special Registration Numbers. When the number is placed on your aircraft, sign and return the original AC Form 8050-64 to AFS-750 within 5 days. Figure 4-2 at the end of this chapter is a sample AC Form 8050-64. A duplicate AC Form 8050-64, together with your airworthiness certificate, should be presented to an aviation safety inspector (ASI) from your local FSDO within 10 days from placing the new registration number on your aircraft. The ASI will issue a revised airworthiness certificate showing the new registration number. The old registration certificate and the duplicate AC Form 8050-64 should be carried in the aircraft until the new Certificate of Registration is received, in accordance with 14 CFR part 91, section 91.203(a)(1). Aircraft Previously registered in the United states If the aircraft you are purchasing was previously registered in the United States, you should immedi- ately submit evidence of ownership, an AC Form 8050-1, Aircraft Registration Application, and the registration fee to AFS-750 upon closing. Fees required for aircraft registration may be paid by check or money order made payable to the Treasury of the United States. AFS-750 contact information is in the FAA Contact Information appendix on pages A1–A2 of this handbook. AC Form 8050-2, Aircraft Bill of Sale, meets the FAA’s requirements for evidence of ownership. An AC Form 8050-2 does not need to be notarized. AC Forms 8050-1 and 8050-2 can be obtained from the nearest FSDO, and include information and instruction sheets. Figure 4-3 at the end of this chapter is a sample AC Form 8050-2. m CAUTION: If a conditional sales contract is the evidence of ownership, an additional fee is required for recording. Chain of Ownership If there is a break in the chain of ownership of the aircraft (i.e., if it is not being purchased from the last registered owner), you are required to submit conveyances to complete the chain of ownership through all intervening owners, including yourself, to AFS-750. Replacement Certificate of Aircraft Registration AC Form 8050-1 may also be used to report a change of address by the aircraft owner. The FAA issues a revised certificate at no charge. If the certificate is lost, destroyed, or mutilated, a replacement certificate may be obtained at the written request of the certi- ficate holder. Send the request and fee to AFS-750. The request should describe the aircraft by make, model, serial number, and registration number. If operation of the aircraft is necessary before receipt of the duplicate certificate, AFS-750 may, if requested, send temporary authority by fax. You should include your full address, fax number, and contact telephone number in your request AFS-750 contact information is in the FAA Contact Information appendix on pages A1–A2 of this handbook. Aircraft Previously registered in a Foreign Country If you are considering the purchase of an aircraft that is currently registered in a foreign country, you should be aware that multiple issues are involved with the registration process. You should contact AFS-750 for registration assistance. 4-4

4 Plane Sense AC Form 8050-1, Aircraft registration Application AC Form 8050-1, Aircraft Registration Application, includes an information and instruction sheet. Submit the white and green copies to AFS-750 and keep the pink copy in the aircraft as temporary authority to operate the aircraft without registration. This temporary authority is valid until the date the applicant receives the AC Form 8050-3, Certificate of Aircraft Registration, or until the date the FAA denies the application, but in no case for more than 90 days after the date of the application. Pink copy operation is valid only inside the United States. Figure 4-4 at the end of this chapter is a sample AC Form 8050-1. If by 90 days the FAA has neither issued the Certificate of Aircraft Registration nor denied the application, the FAA Aircraft Registry may issue a letter of extension that serves as authority to continue to operate the aircraft without registration. m CAUTION: If you plan to operate the aircraft outside the United States within 90 days of submitting your registration documents, you should contact AFS-750 to request a temporary certificate by fax, also known as a “fly wire”. AC Form 8050-3, Certifcate of Aircraft registration AC Form 8050-3 is issued to the person whose name is on the application. The pink copy is valid for 90 days and is legal only in the United States. An AC Form 8050-3 should be in the aircraft before an Airworthiness Certificate can be issued. Some of the conditions under which AC Form 8050-3 becomes invalid, as described in 14 CFR part 47, section 47.41 include: •The aircraft becomes registered under the laws of a foreign country. •The registration of the aircraft is cancelled at the written request of the holder of the certificate. •The aircraft is totally destroyed or scrapped. •The holder of the certificate loses his or her U.S. citizenship or status as a resident alien without becoming a U.S. citizen. •The ownership of the aircraft is transferred. •Thirty days have elapsed since the death of the holder of the certificate. When an aircraft is sold, destroyed, or scrapped, the owner must notify the FAA by filling in the back of AC Form 8050-3 and mailing it to AFS-750. The U.S. registration and nationality marking should be removed from an aircraft before it is delivered to a purchaser who is not eligible to register it in the United States. The endorsed AC Form 8050-3 should be forwarded to AFS-750. AFS-750 contact information is in the FAA Contact Information appendix on pages A1–A2 of this handbook. An AC Form 8050-6, Dealer’s Aircraft Registration Certificate, is an alternative form of registration. It is valid only for flights within the United States by the manufacturer or dealer for flight testing or demonstration for sale. It should be removed by the dealer when the aircraft is sold. To apply for a Dealer’s Aircraft Registration Certificate, the applicant must complete AC Form 8050-5, Dealer’s Aircraft Registration Certificate Application. m CAUTION: AC Form 8050-3 serves as conclusive evidence of nationality but it is not a title and is not evidence of ownership in any proceeding in which ownership is at issue. Amateur-Built Aircraft registration and inspection The FAA recommends that you apply for registration of your amateur-built aircraft 60–120 days before you finish building your aircraft, and before you submit FAA Form 8130-6 to the FAA. The FAA will not inspect your amateur-built aircraft before it has been registered or during construction of the aircraft. The FAA or a Designated Airworthiness Representative (DAR) in your geographical area inspects your amateur-built aircraft for general airworthiness only after you have made an application for an airworthiness certificate. The FAA does not charge a fee to the public for inspecting amateur-built aircraft. However, FAA workload may delay inspection of your aircraft. For this reason, the FAA staff is augmented by the use of DARs who may charge a fee for their services (14 CFR Part 183, Section 183.33(b), Designated Airworthiness Representative). You may locate a DAR in your geographical area by reviewing the online DAR Directory. Manufacturing DARs are listed by state in the first half of the directory, and Maintenance DARs are listed by state in the second half. A DAR who has authority to inspect and certify amateur-built aircraft has the Chapter 4: 4-5 Aircraft Registration 4 DAR Function Code “46” under his or her name. (Also see FAA Order 8100.8 (as revised), Designee Management Handbook, for designee program details.) light-sport Aircraft registration If you purchased a newly manufactured light-sport aircraft that is to be certificated as: •An experimental light-sport aircraft under 14 CFR, part 21, section 21.191(i)(2); or •A special light-sport aircraft under 14 CFR part 21, section 21.190; Then you must provide the following documentation to AFS-750: •AC Form 8050-88 (as revised), Light-Sport Aircraft Manufacturer’s Affidavit, completed by the light-sport aircraft manufacturer, unless previously submitted to AFS-750 by the manufacturer; •Evidence of ownership from the manufacturer for the aircraft; •AC Form 8050-1, Aircraft Registration Application; and •Registration fee. The FAA Light Sport Aviation Branch (AFS-610) or your local FSDO can assist you with questions about the registration of light-sport aircraft. AFS-610 contact information is in the FAA Contact Information appendix on pages A1–A2 of this handbook. state registration requirements Aircraft owners should remember that state registration of aircraft is required in many states. You should check with your state government to ensure that you have met any applicable state registration requirements for your aircraft. Additional information 14 CFR part 47 specifies the requirements for registering an aircraft. For information concerning 14 CFR part 47 or any topics not discussed in this chapter, please contact AFS-750. AFS-750 contact information is in the FAA Contact Information appendix on pages A1–A2 of this handbook.

Before the permit is issued, a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) aviation safety inspector (ASI) may inspect the aircraft or require it to be inspected by an FAA-certificated airframe and powerplant (A&P) mechanic or repair station to determine its safety for the intended flight. The inspection is then recorded in the aircraft records. This type of special flight permit is often referred to as a “ferry permit” because it allows the aircraft to be ferried to a location for maintenance. In the case of general aviation flights (e.g., flights conducted by operators other than Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 121 or part 135 certificate holders), special flight permits are issued by the FAA Flight Standards District Office (FSDO)/International Field Office (IFO) having jurisdiction over the geographical area in which the flight is to originate. Circumstances Warranting a special Flight Permit A special flight permit is issued to allow the aircraft to be flown to a base where repairs, alterations, or maintenance can be performed; for delivering or exporting the aircraft; or for evacuating an aircraft from an area of impending danger. It may also be issued to allow the operation of an overweight aircraft for flight beyond its normal range over water or land areas where adequate landing facilities are not available. The following list, which is not all-inclusive, sets forth the most common requests for special flight permits: •Flying the aircraft to a base where repairs, alterations, or maintenance are to be performed, or to a point of salvage •Flying an aircraft whose annual inspection has expired to a base where an annual inspection can be accomplished •Flying an amateur-built aircraft whose condition inspection has expired to a base where the condition inspection can be accomplished •Delivering or exporting the aircraft •roduction flight testing of new production aircraft •Evacuating aircraft from areas of impending danger •Conducting customer demonstration flights in new production aircraft that have satisfactorily completed production flight tests •Operating an aircraft at a weight in excess of its maximum certificated takeoff weight

5-2 5 m CAUTION: If an Airworthiness Directive (AD) requires compliance before further flight and does not have a provision for issuance of a special flight permit, the operation of the aircraft to which it applies would not be appropriate, and a special flight permit will not be issued. Foreign-registered Civil Aircraft A special flight authorization allows a foreign- registered civil aircraft that does not have the equivalent of a U.S. standard airworthiness certificate to be operated within the United States. A civil aircraft registered in a country that is a member of the International Civil Aviation Organzation (ICAO) only needs a special flight authorization issued by the FAA. A civil aircraft registered in a country that is not a member of ICAO must have both an authorization from the United States Department of Transportation (DOT) and a special flight authorization issued by the FAA. obtaining a special Flight Authorization To obtain a special flight authorization, you must apply by letter or facsimile. The application and issuance procedures are provided in FAA Order 8130.2 (as revised), Airworthiness Certification of Aircraft and Related Products, Chapter 7, Special Flight Authorizations for Non-U.S.-Registered Civil Aircraft. You can obtain assistance and the necessary forms for issuance of a special flight authorization from the local FSDO or IFO. Application for Airworthiness Certifcate A special flight permit is an FAA Form 8130-7, Special Airworthiness Certificate, issued pursuant to 14 CFR part 21, section 21.197, for an aircraft that may not currently meet applicable airworthiness requirements but is safe for a specific flight. m CAUTION: A special flight permit is not an authorization to deviate from the requirements of 14 CFR part 91. An applicant for a special flight permit must submit FAA Form 8130-6, Application for U.S. Airworthiness Certificate, including a statement indicating: •urpose of the flight; •roposed itinerary; •Essential crew required to operate the aircraft; •The ways, if any, in which the aircraft does not comply with the applicable airworthiness requirements; and •Any other information requested by the Administrator, considered necessary for the purpose of prescribing operating limitations. You should fax the completed form to the FSDO closest to the location where the flight will originate. You can locate contact information for the FSDO on the FAA website at www.faa.gov. Figure 5-1 at the end of this chapter is a sample FAA Form 8130-6. Some FSDOs may ask you to include additional information necessary for the purpose of prescribing operating limitations when you submit FAA Form 8130-6. Examples of additional information might include: •A current copy of the Airworthiness Certificate. •A current copy of the Certificate of Aircraft Registration. •A current copy of the front page of the aircraft and engine(s) logbooks, with all entries completed, (i.e., aircraft, engine(s), propeller(s), manufacturer, model, serial number). •A current copy of the Aircraft/Engine/Propeller/ Appliance AD compliance status. •A copy of the last Aircraft Log Book entry, stating that the aircraft has been inspected and is in a safe condition to fly/ferry, that the aircraft is in compliance with all applicable ADs, and/or a listing of the ADs with which the aircraft is not in compliance. The entry must be signed by an A&P mechanic or 14 CFR part 145 repair station. The Administrator may also want to inspect the aircraft in question before approving or issuing a ferry flight permit. You may be required to make appropriate inspections or tests necessary for safety. (This means an A&P mechanic or 14 CFR part 145 repair station will need to inspect the aircraft prior to flight.) You may request that the local FSDO transmit the ferry permit via facsimile if the request is timesensitive. Figure 5-2 at the end of this chapter is a sample FAA Form 8130-7. The aircraft operator must display, in the aircraft, the current airworthiness certificate and the special flight (ferry) permit along with its operating limitations.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) promulgated sport pilot (SP)/LSA regulations in 2004. This significant change in Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) allowed easier and lower-cost access to general aviation. defnition LSA as defined in 14 CFR part 1, section 1.1, “means an aircraft, other than a helicopter or powered-lift that, since its original certification, has continued to meet the following: (1) A maximum takeoff weight of not more than— (i) 1,320 pounds (600 kilograms) for aircraft not intended for operation on water; or (ii) 1,430 pounds (650 kilograms) for an aircraft intended for operation on water. (2) A maximum airspeed in level flight with maximum continuous power (VH ) of not more than 120 knots CAS under standard atmospheric conditions at sea level. (3) A maximum never-exceed speed (VNE ) of not more than 120 knots CAS for a glider. (4) A maximum stalling speed or minimum steady flight speed without the use of liftenhancing devices (VS1 ) of not more than 45 knots CAS at the aircraft’s maximum certificated takeoff weight and most critical center of gravity. (5) A maximum seating capacity of no more than two persons, including the pilot. (6) A single, reciprocating engine, if powered. (7) A fixed or ground-adjustable propeller if a powered aircraft other than a powered glider. (8) A fixed or autofeathering propeller system if a powered glider. (9) A fixed-pitch, semi-rigid, teetering, two-blade rotor system, if a gyroplane. (10) A nonpressurized cabin, if equipped with a cabin. (11) Fixed landing gear, except for an aircraft intended for operation on water or a glider. (12) Fixed or retractable landing gear, or a hull, for an aircraft intended for operation on water. (13) Fixed or retractable landing gear for a glider.” lsA Certifcation Several different kinds of aircraft may be certificated as LSA. Airplanes (both powered and gliders), rotorcraft (gyroplanes only, not true for helicopters), powered parachutes, weight-shift control aircraft, and lighter-than-air craft (free balloons and airships) may all be certificated as LSA if they fall within weight and other guidelines established by the FAA. light-sport Aircraft 6 6-1 6-2 Plane Sense 6 lsA registration If you purchased a newly manufactured LSA that is to be certificated as an experimental LSA under 14 CFR part 21, section 21.191(i)(2), or a special LSA under 14 CFR part 21, section 21.190, then you must provide the following documentation to the FAA Civil Aviation Registry Aircraft Registration Branch (AFS-750): •Aeronautical Center (AC) Form 8050-88 (as revised), Light-Sport Aircraft Manufacturer’s Affidavit, or its equivalent, completed by the LSA manufacturer, unless previously submitted to AFS-750 by the manufacturer, •Evidence of ownership from the aircraft manufacturer, •AC Form 8050-1, Aircraft Registration Application, and •Registration fee.

M aintenance means the preservation, inspection, overhaul, and repair of aircraft, including the replacement of parts. The purpose of maintenance is to ensure that the aircraft remains airworthy throughout its operational life. A properly maintained aircraft is a safe aircraft. Although maintenance requirements vary for different types of aircraft, experience shows that most aircraft need some type of preventive maintenance every 25 hours or less of flying time, and minor maintenance at least every 100 hours. This is influenced by the kind of operation, climactic conditions, storage facilities, age, and construction of the aircraft. Maintenance manuals are available from aircraft manufacturers or commercial vendors with revisions for maintaining your aircraft. While the requirements for maintaining your aircraft are contained in Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR), it is essential for every aircraft owner to remember that specific maintenance requirements are available from the aircraft manufacturer. maintenance responsibilities 14 CFR part 91, section 91.403, places primary responsibility on the owner or operator for maintaining an aircraft in an airworthy condition. Certain inspections must be performed on your aircraft, and you must maintain the airworthiness of the aircraft between the required inspections by having any defects corrected. 14 CFR part 91, section 91.327 pertains to lightsport aircraft. Light-sport aircraft certificated in the light sport category under 14 CFR part 21, section 21.190 must be maintained by an FAA-certificated airframe and powerplant (A&P) mechanic or a light-sport repairman with a maintenance rating. 14 CFr Part 91, subpart e 14 CFR part 91, subpart E, requires the inspection of all civil aircraft at specific intervals to determine the overall condition. The interval generally depends on the type of operations in which the aircraft is engaged. Some aircraft need to be inspected at least once every 12 calendar months, while inspection is required for others after each 100 hours of operation. In other instances, an aircraft may be inspected in accordance with an inspection system set up to provide for total inspection of the aircraft on the basis of calendar time, time in service, number of system operations, or any combination of these factors. 7-1 7 Aircraft maintenance Plane Sense 7 7-2 To determine the specific inspection requirements and rules for the performance of inspections, you should refer to 14 CFR part 91, subpart E, which prescribes the requirements for various types of operations. manufacturer maintenance manuals All inspections must follow the manufacturer main- tenance manual, including the instructions for continued airworthiness concerning inspection intervals, parts replacement, and life-limited items as applicable to your aircraft. The maintenance manuals provided by the manufacturer of your aircraft are your best available resource on issues of aircraft maintenance. Preventive maintenance 14 CFR lists 32 relatively uncomplicated repairs and procedures defined as preventive maintenance. Certificated pilots, excluding student and recreational pilots, may perform preventive maintenance on any aircraft owned or operated by them that are not used in air carrier service. These preventive maintenance operations are listed in 14 CFR Part 43, Appendix A, Preventive Maintenance. 14 CFR part 43 also contains other rules to be followed in the maintenance of aircraft. inspections In order to provide a reasonable assurance that aircraft are functioning properly, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) requires a series of aircraft inspections somewhat similar to the many currency requirements for airmen. This section outlines the basic inspection requirements for aircraft. Annual Inspection Most general aviation aircraft require an annual inspection pursuant to 14 CFR part 91, section 91.409. Excluded aircraft: •Use an approved progressive inspection plan; •Carry a special flight permit; or •Carry a provisional airworthiness certificate. The annual inspection must be completed and approved by a mechanic with an inspection authorization (IA) once every 12 calendar months. For example, if the aircraft’s annual is endorsed on June 16, 2008, the next annual inspection is due before July 1, 2009; otherwise the aircraft may not be flown without authorization (e.g., a special flight or “ferry”permit). A ferry permit is required to fly an aircraft that is out of annual, such as in the case of flying to another airport for the inspection. Chapter 5 discusses the issuance of special flight permits. You can contact your local Flight Standards District Office (FSDO) for instructions on applying for a special flight or ferry permit. 100-Hour Inspection The 100-hour (14 CFR part 91, section 91.409) inspection is required for aircraft that either: •Carry any person (other than a crewmember) for hire, or •Are provided by any person giving flight instruction. The 100-hour limit may be exceeded by 10 hours for the purposes of flying to a place where the inspection can be completed. The excess time must be included in computing the next 100 hours of time in service. Some examples of “for hire” operations under 14 CFR part 91 that subject the aircraft to the 100-hour inspection requirement include: •An aerial photography flight, or •A flight instructor providing an aircraft, or any operation that supplies both flight instruction and an aircraft. (An aircraft provided by the (student) pilot receiving instruction is not subject to the 100-hour inspection.) Condition Inspection A condition inspection is required once every 12 calendar months for light-sport aircraft certificated in the light-sport category. In accordance with 14 CFR part 91, section 91.327, the condition inspection must be performed by “a certificated repairman (light-sport aircraft) with a maintenance rating, an appropriately rated mechanic, or an appropriately rated repair station in accordance with inspection procedures developed by the aircraft manufacturer or a person acceptable to the FAA.” other inspection Programs The annual and 100-hour inspection requirements do not apply to large (over 12,500 pounds) airplanes, turbojets, or turbopropeller-powered multiengine airplanes, or to airplanes for which the owner or operator complies with the progressive inspection requirements. Details of these requirements may be determined by reference to 14 CFR part 43, section 43.11; 14 CFR part 91, subpart E; and by inquiry at the local FSDO.

Chapter 7: Aircraft Maintenance 7 7-3 Progressive Inspection To minimize maintenance downtime, the owner may opt for a progressive inspection plan. Progressive inspections benefit owners whose aircraft experience high usage such as fixed base operators (FBOs), flight schools, and corporate flight departments. Unlike an annual inspection, a progressive inspection allows for more frequent but shorter inspection phases, only if all items required for the annual and 100-hour inspections are inspected within the required time. The authority to use a progressive inspection plan is non-transferable. Once the aircraft is sold, an annual becomes due within 12 calendar months of the last complete cycle. The 100-hour inspection is due at the completion of the next 100 hours of operation. Most airframe manufacturers provide a boilerplate progressive maintenance plan. 14 CFR Part 43, Appendix D, Scope and Detail of Items (as Applicable to the Particular Aircraft) To Be Included in Annual and 100-Hour Inspections, contains a list of general items to be checked during inspections. Altimeter System Inspection The aircraft’s static system, altimeter, and automatic altitude-reporting (Mode C) system must have been inspected and tested in the preceding 24 calendar months before flying instrument flight rules (IFR) in controlled airspace. 14 CFR Part 43, Appendix E, Altimeter System Test and Inspection, lists the items that must be checked. Transponder Inspection The transponder must be inspected every 24 calendar months. 14 CFR Part 43, Appendix F, ATC Transponder Tests and Inspections, lists the items that must be checked. Additionally, the installation of or modification to a transponder must be inspected for data errors as well. Preflight Inspection A pilot is required to conduct a thorough preflight inspection before every flight to ensure that the aircraft is safe for flight. Pilots should review the maintenance status of the aircraft as a part of the preflight inspection. repairs and Alterations All repairs and alterations of standard airworthiness certificated aircraft are classified as either major or minor. 14 CFR part 43, appendix A, describes the alterations and repairs considered major. Major repairs or alterations are approved for return to service on FAA Form 337, Major Repair and Alteration, by an appropriately rated certificated repair station, an FAA-certificated A&P mechanic holding an IA, or a representative of the Administrator. Minor repairs and minor alterations may be approved for return to service with a proper entry in the maintenance records by a certificated A&P mechanic or an appropriately certificated repair station. Alterations to light-sport aircraft certificated in the light-sport aircraft category under 14 CFR part 21, section 21.190, must be authorized by the manufacturer or a person acceptable to the FAA in accordance with 14 CFR part 91, section 91.327. minimum equipment list/Confguration deviation list If your aircraft has an approved Minimum Equipment List (MEL), the MEL should be used to determine if a flight may be initiated with inoperative aircraft equipment without the issuance of a special flight permit. Your Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) may also include a Configuration Deviation List (CDL) prepared by the manufacturer. If your aircraft does not have an approved MEL, and you have inoperative equipment or instruments, then you must refer to 14 CFR part 91, section 91.213, to determine if a special flight permit is needed to operate the aircraft. FAA resources You can find all of the maintenance requirements applicable to your aircraft in 14 CFR by accessing the relevant regulations on the FAA website at www.faa.gov. The best resource for answering questions about the maintenance necessary on your aircraft is your local FSDO. experimental Aircraft If you make any major alterations to your experimental aircraft, you must notify your local FSDO of those alterations.

7 7-4 A n aircraft owner is required to keep aircraft maintenance records for the airframe, engine, propeller, and appliances. These records must contain a description of the work performed on the aircraft, the date the work was completed, the certificated mechanic’s signature, the type of Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) certificate, and the certificate number and signature of the person approving the aircraft for return to service. responsibilities of the Aircraft owner All recordkeeping is primarily the responsibility of the aircraft owner. The airframe and powerplant (A&P) mechanic is responsible for the work he or she performs. The owner of an aircraft must also ensure that maintenance personnel make appropriate entries in the aircraft maintenance records indicating the aircraft has been approved for return to service. The owner’s aircraft records shall also contain the inspections required pursuant to Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 91, section 91.409. Proper management of aircraft operations begins with a good system of maintenance records. A properly completed maintenance record provides the information needed by the owner and maintenance personnel to determine when scheduled inspections and maintenance are to be performed. Aircraft maintenance records must include: •The total time in service of the airframe, each engine, and each propeller; •The current status of life-limited parts of each airframe, engine, propeller, rotor, and appliance; •The time since the last overhaul of all items installed on the aircraft, which are required to be overhauled on a specified time basis; •The identification of the current inspection status of the aircraft, including the time since the last inspection required by the inspection program under which the aircraft and its appliances are maintained; •The current status of applicable Airworthiness Directives (ADs) including, for each, the method of compliance, the AD number, and the revision date. If the AD involves recurring action, the time and date the next action is required; and •A copy of the major alterations to each airframe, engine, propeller, and appliance. These records are retained by the owner and are transferred with the aircraft when it is sold. Figure 8-1 at the end of this chapter is a maintenance records checklist you can use to document compliance with the applicable maintenance requirements. 8 8-1 maintenance records Plane 8 8-2 Sense These records may be discarded when the work is repeated or superseded by other work, or 1 year after the work is performed. m CAUTION: Keep in mind that as a result of repairs or alterations, such as replacing radios and installing speed kits, it may be necessary to amend the weight and balance report, equipment list, flight manual, etc. logbooks Most maintenance performed on an aircraft is recorded in the aircraft logbooks. As an aircraft owner, it is important to ensure that your aircraft’s logbooks are complete and up to date at all times. The aircraft logbooks outline the maintenance history of your air- craft, and any prospective buyer will want to review the aircraft and all maintenance performed. In addi- tion, any A&P or certificated repair station performing maintenance on your aircraft will want to review the prior maintenance performed on the aircraft. Airworthiness directives An aircraft owner is required to comply with all applicable ADs issued by the FAA for his or her aircraft. The FAA issues ADs to notify aircraft owners and other interested persons of unsafe conditions and to specify the corrective action required, including conditions under which the aircraft may continue to be operated. The aircraft’s maintenance records should indicate the current status of all applicable ADs, including for each: •AD number, •Method of compliance, •Revision date, and •Recurring action (if applicable) including the time and date of the next action required. safety directives The owner or operator of an aircraft having a special airworthiness certificate must comply with each safety directive applicable to the aircraft that corrects an existing unsafe condition or corrects the condition in a manner different from safety directive specifications if the person issuing the directive agrees with the action. Otherwise, the owner or operator may, in accordance with 14 CFR part 91, section 91.327, “obtain an FAA waiver from the provisions of the safety directive based on a conclusion that the safety directive was issued without adhering to the applicable consensus standard.” Light-sport category aircraft certificated pursuant to 14 CFR part 21, section 21.190 have mandatory compliance with all manufacturer safety directives. service Bulletins A service bulletin contains a recommendation from the manufacturer, with which that manufacturer believes the aircraft owner should comply, that often reflects a safety-of-flight issue that the manufacturer believes should be addressed within a certain timeframe. It may result from an improvement developed by the manufacturer, or it may address a defect in a product or published documentation. The manufacturer responds to one of these situations by issuing a service bulletin that recommends a certain type of inspection, replacing certain components, performing maintenance in a specific manner, or limiting operations under specified conditions. Sometimes, compliance with a service bulletin may be triggered by the occurrence of a particular event (e.g., the lapse of time or operation under certain types of conditions). FAA Form 337, major repair and Alteration A mechanic who performs a major repair or major alteration shall record the work on FAA Form 337 and have the work inspected and approved by a mechanic who holds an inspection authorization (IA). (Light-sport aircraft do not require Form 337 when altering a non-approved product.) A signed copy shall be given to the owner and another copy sent to the FAA Aircraft Registration Branch (AFS-750) in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma within 48 hours of aircraft approval for return to service. However, when a major repair is done by a certificated repair station, the customer’s work order may be used and a release given as outlined in 14 CFR Part 43, Appendix B, Recording of Major Repairs and Major Alterations. You can obtain additional information and instructions for completing FAA Form 337 in Advisory Circular (AC) 43-9 (as revised), Aircraft Maintenance Records. Figure 8-2 at the end of this chapter is a sample FAA Form 337. entries into Aircraft maintenance records Each time maintenance, including preventive main- tenance, is performed on your aircraft, an appropriate entry must be added to the maintenance records.

END Ed Mechanic SAMPLE Plane Sense 8 8-8 Chapter 8: Aircraft Maintenance Records A n Airworthiness Directive (AD) is an important tool used by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to communicate unsafe operating conditions relating to aircraft and aircraft equipment to aircraft owners. A primary safety function of the FAA is to require the correction of unsafe conditions found in an aircraft, aircraft engine, propeller, rotor, or appliance when such conditions exist or are likely to exist or develop in other products of the same design. These unsafe conditions can exist because of a design defect, maintenance, or other causes. Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Part 39, Airworthiness Directives, defines the authority and responsibility of the Administrator in requiring the necessary corrective action to address unsafe conditions. ADs are used to notify aircraft owners and other interested persons of unsafe conditions and to specify the conditions under which the product may continue to be operated. types of Ads issued The FAA issues two categories of ADs: •Normal Issue •Emergency Issue standard Ad Process The standard AD process is to issue a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM), followed by a Final Rule. After an unsafe condition is discovered, a proposed solution is published in the Federal Register as an NPRM, which solicits public comment on the proposed action. After the comment period closes, the final rule is prepared, taking into account all substantive comments received, with the rule perhaps being changed as warranted by the comments. The preamble to the Final Rule AD provides response to the substantive comments or states there were no comments received. emergency Ad In certain cases, the critical nature of an unsafe condition may warrant the immediate adoption of a rule without prior notice and solicitation of comments. The intent of an Emergency AD is to rapidly correct an urgent safety of flight situation. This is an exception to the standard process. If time by which the terminating action must be accomplished is too short to allow for public comment (that is, less than 60 days), then a finding of impracticability is justified for the terminating action, and it can be issued as an immediately adopted rule. The immediately adopted rule will be published in the Federal Register with a request for comments. The Final Rule AD may be changed later if substantive comments are received.

9 Airworthiness directives 1 EMERGENCY AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVE Aircraft Certification Service Washington, DC U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration We post Emergency ADs on the internet at www.faa.gov/aircraft/safety/alerts. DATE: March 12, 2008 AD #: 2008-06-51 This emergency airworthiness directive (AD) 2008-06-51 is sent to all owners and operators of Lycoming Engines IO, (L)IO, TIO, (L)TIO, AEIO, AIO, IGO, IVO, and HIO series reciprocating engines, Teledyne Continental Motors (TCM) TSIO-360-RB reciprocating engines, and Superior Air Parts, Inc. IO-360 series reciprocating engines with certain Precision Airmotive LLC RSA-5 and RSA-10 series fuel injection servos. Background This emergency AD results from eighteen reports of fuel injection servo plugs, part number (P/N) 383493, that had loosened or completely backed out of the threaded plug hole on the regulator cover of the fuel injection servo. These servo plugs were installed with servo plug gasket, P/N 365533, under the plug hex-head. Precision Airmotive LLC investigated and determined that servo plug gasket, P/N 365533, can shrink from engine heat, causing the plug to lose torque against the servo regulator cover, allowing the plug to vibrate out. The threads on the plugs were also found damaged. Servo plug gaskets, P/N 365533, installed on RSA-5 and RSA-10 series fuel injection servos since August 22, 2006, are made of a different material than the previous gasket part number used. This condition, if not corrected, could result in a substantial loss of engine power and subsequent loss of control of the airplane. Explanation of Relevant Service Information We have reviewed Precision Airmotive LLC Mandatory Service Bulletin (MSB) No. PRS- 107, Revision 1, dated March 6, 2008. The MSB describes procedures for inspecting servo plugs for looseness and damage, inspecting the servo regulator cover threads for damage, on fuel injection servos that have a servo plug gasket, P/N 365533, installed, inspecting the gasket for damage, reinstalling acceptable parts, and torquing the servo plug to a new, higher torque to help maintain the proper clamp-up force against the plug and cover. Interim Action These actions are interim actions and we might take additional rulemaking actions in the future. FAA’s Determination and Requirements of the Rule We have identified an unsafe condition that is likely to exist or develop on other RSA-5 and RSA-10 series fuel injection servos of this same type design. This AD requires inspecting servo plugs for looseness and damage on fuel injection servos that have a servo plug gasket, P/N 365533, 9-1 Plane Sense 9-2 9 superseded Ad An AD is no longer in effect when it is superseded by a new AD. The superseding AD identifies the AD that is no longer in effect. There are no compliance requirements for a superseded AD. Compliance with Ads For purposes of compliance, ADs may be divided into two categories: •Those of an emergency nature requiring immediate compliance before further flight, or •Those of a less urgent nature requiring compliance within a relatively longer period of time. ADs are the “final rule”and compliance is required unless specific exemption is granted. Aircraft owners are responsible for ensuring compliance with all pertinent ADs. This includes those ADs that require recurrent or continuing action. For example, an AD may require a repetitive inspection each 50 hours of operation, meaning the particular inspection must be accomplished and recorded every 50 hours of time in service. m CAUTION: Aircraft owners are reminded that there is no provision to overfly the maximum hour requirement of an AD unless it is specifically written into the AD. Amateur-Built Aircraft For help in determining if an AD applies to your amateur-built aircraft, contact your local Flight Standards District Office (FSDO). summary of Ads 14 CFR part 91, section 91.417, requires a record to be maintained that shows the current status of applicable ADs, including: •Method of compliance; •AD number and revision date; •Date and time when due again, if recurring; •Certified mechanic’s signature; •Type of certificate; and •Certificate number of the repair station or mechanical performing the work. For ready reference, many aircraft owners keep a chronological listing of the pertinent ADs in the back of their aircraft and engine records. Generally, a summary of ADs contains all the valid ADs previously published. Figure 9-1 is a sample form of summary of ADs. obtaining Ads Both AD categories (small and large aircraft) are published in biweekly supplements. All ADs are available on the FAA website at www.faa.gov. Advisory Circular (AC) 39-7 (as revised), Airworthiness Directives, provides additional guidance and information for aircraft owners and operators about their responsibilities for complying and recording ADs. For more information, contact the FAA Regulatory Support Division, Delegation and Airworthiness Programs Branch (AIR-140).

This sample AD Compliance Record is intended to show you an acceptable format for recording the required information to evidence your aircraft’s compliance with applicable ADs. The FAA does not prescribe a specific format; however, the information discussed in this chapter must be maintained with the aircraft’s maintenance records. Plane Sense 9-4 9 service diffculty Program 10 10-1 T he Service Difficulty Program is an information system designed to provide assistance to aircraft owners, operators, maintenance organizations, manufacturers, and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in identifying aircraft problems encountered during service. Background The Service Difficulty Program provides for the collection, organization, analysis, and dissemination of aircraft service information to improve service reliability of aeronautical products. The primary sources of this information are aircraft maintenance facilities, owners, and operators. The incentive for early detection is to expedite corrective actions and ultimate solutions, thereby minimizing the effect of equipment failure on safety. Each problem reported contributes to the improvement of aviation safety through the identification of a potential problem area and the alerting of other persons to it. This focusing of attention on a problem has led to improvements in the design and maintainability of aircraft and aircraft products. Advisory Circular (AC) 20-109 (as revised), Service Difficulty Program (General Aviation), describes the Service Difficulty Program as it applies to general aviation. It also includes instructions for completing FAA Form 8010-4, Malfunction or Defect Report. The information from these reports is compiled and published as Maintenance Alerts. By pooling everyone’s knowledge about a situation, the FAA can detect mechanical problems early enough to correct them before they might possibly result in accidents/incidents which should make flying safer, more enjoyable, and certainly less expensive. FAA Form 8010-4, malfunction or defect report General aviation aircraft service difficulty information is normally submitted to the FAA by use of FAA Form 8010-4. However, information will be accepted in any form or format when FAA Form 8010-4 is not readily available for use. The information contained in the FAA Form 8010-4 is stored in a computerized data bank for retrieval and analysis. Items potentially hazardous to flight are telephoned directly to the Regulatory Support Division, Aviation Data Systems Branch (AFS-620) personnel by FAA aviation safety inspectors (ASIs) in local Flight Standards District Offices (FSDOs). These items are immediately referred to, and promptly handled by, the appropriate FAA offices. ADVISORY CIRCULAR 43-16A AVIATION MAINTENANCE ALERTS ADVISORY CIRCULAR 43-16A AVIATION MAINTENANCE ALERTS ALERT JANUARY ADVISORY CIRCULAR 43-16A AVIATION MAINTENANCE ALE ALERT NUMBER 10-2 Plane 10 Sense Aircraft owners, pilots, and mechanics are urged to report all service problems promptly, using FAA Form 8010-4 or any other form or format. You may obtain a copy of the form from any FSDO. No postage is required. FAA Form 8010-4 is also available in a fillable PDF format on the FAA website at http://forms.faa.gov/forms/faa8010-4.pdf for mailing, or it can be submitted electronically on the FAA website at www.faa.gov. Figure 10-1 at the end of this chapter is a sample FAA Form 8010-4. maintenance Alerts The FAA publishes AC 43-16 (as revised), Aviation Maintenance Alerts, monthly on its website to provide the aviation community with a means for interchanging service difficulty information and sharing information on aviation service experiences. Background The Maintenance Alert program leads to improved aeronautical product durability, reliability, and safety. The articles contained in the Maintenance Alerts are derived from the Malfunction or Defect Reports submitted by aircraft owners, pilots, mechanics, repair stations, and air taxi operators. Maintenance specialists review the reports and select pertinent items for publication in the Maintenance Alerts. The information is brief and advisory and compliance is not mandatory. However, the information is intended to alert you to service experience, and, when applicable, direct your attention to the manufacturer’s recommended corrective action. Accessing Maintenance Alerts You can access current and back issues of this publication on the FAA website at http://www.faa. gov/aircraft/safety/alerts/aviation_maintenance/, which allows free access to each month’s Main- tenance Alerts. Contact Information You can contact the FAA Aviation Systems Data Branch (AFS-620) regarding the Maintenance Alert Program. AFS-620 contact information is available in the FAA Contact Information appendix on pages A1–A2 of this handbook.

You can obtain instructions for completing FAA Form 8010-4 on the FAA website at www.faa.gov or from your local FSDO. During a local flight, a fuel odor was apparent. Flight was terminated at the local airport with a normal landing. After engine shutdown and exiting the aircraft the pilot observed fuel leaking from the lower engine cowl. Investigation revealed an aluminum fuel pressure gauge line cracked at the B nut where it attached to a carburetor fitting (see attached drawing). Line appears to be original (40+ yrs.). A combination of age and vibration may have caused the crack. Recommend checking line every 100 hrs. and replacing as necessary.

v SAMPLE 10-4 Plane Sense 10 Chapter 10: Service Diffculty Program T here are several ways to obtain various Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) publications. The easiest way to locate a particular FAA document and/or Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part is on the FAA website at www.faa.gov. In addition, you can order some FAA publications directly from the FAA or from the Government Printing Office (GPO). The FAA Records Checklist in Figure 11-1 at the end of this chapter is a list of addresses to assist you in obtaining the publications and records discussed in this chapter. FAA publications and supporting regulatory guidance material fall into several specific categories, which are explained in this chapter. If you cannot find the information you are seeking, refer to the FAA website, which contains a great deal of useful information for aircraft owners and operators. Advisory Circulars The FAA issues an Advisory Circular (AC) to inform the aviation public, in a systematic way, of nonregulatory material of interest. The content of an AC is not binding on the public unless it is incorporated into a regulation by reference. AC 00-2 (as revised) , Advisory Circular Checklist, contains a list of current FAA ACs and provides detailed instructions on obtaining copies. It also contains a list of U.S. GPO bookstores throughout the United States that stock many Government publications. This AC may be accessed on the FAA website at www.faa.gov by selecting “Regulations & Policies”from the main menu bar. Airworthiness directives The FAA uses an Airworthiness Directive (AD) to notify aircraft owners and other interested persons of unsafe conditions and to specify the conditions under which the product may continue to be operated. You can access ADs on the FAA website at www.faa.gov by selecting “Regulations & Policies”from the main menu bar. You can subscribe to ADs at the FAA Regulatory & Guidance Library (RGL) website, http://rgl.faa.gov. Current and historical ADs are also available on the RGL website. obtaining FAA Publications and records 11 11-1 11-2 Plane 11 Sense temporary Flight restrictions A Temporary Flight Restriction (TFR) is a geographically limited, short term, airspace restriction, typically in the United States. TFRs often encompass major sporting events, natural disaster areas, air shows, space launches, and Presidential movements. You can access current TFRs on the FAA website at www.faa.gov by selecting “Regulations & Policies” from the main menu bar. m CAUTION: You should check the current TFRs every time you fly. notice to Airmen You can obtain the most recent Notice to Airmen (NOTAMs) from the FAA website at www.faa.gov by selecting “Regulations & Policies”from the main menu bar. Current NOTAMs are also available from Flight Service Stations at 1-800-WX-BRIEF (1-800-992-7433). 14 CFr While aircraft owners and operators are responsible for compliance with all applicable 14 CFR parts, you may find the following parts most relevant to your aircraft operations: •14 CFR Part 1, Definitions and Abbreviations •14 CFR Part 21, Certification Procedures for Products and Parts •14 CFR Part 23, Airworthiness Standards: Normal, Utility, Acrobatic, and Commuter Category Airplanes •14 CFR Part 33, Airworthiness Standards: Aircraft Engines •14 CFR Part 35, Airworthiness Standards: Propellers •14 CFR Part 39, Airworthiness Directives •14 CFR Part 43, Maintenance, Preventive Maintenance, Rebuilding, and Alteration •14 CFR Part 45, Identification and Registration Marking •14 CFR Part 47, Aircraft Registration •14 CFR Part 49, Recording of Aircraft Titles and Security Documents •14 CFR Part 61, Certification: Pilots, Flight Instructors, and Ground Instructors •14 CFR Part 65, Certification: Airmen Other than Flight Crewmembers •14 CFR Part 91, General Operating and Flight Rules AC 00-44 (as revised), Status of Federal Aviation Regulations, contains the current status of the 14 CFR parts, including changes issued, price list, and ordering instructions. This AC may be obtained on the FAA website at www.faa.gov. Handbooks and manuals The FAA publishes a series of handbooks and manuals designed for aircraft, general aviation enthusiasts, examiners, and inspectors. You can find most of these handbooks and manuals, including Plane Sense, on the FAA website at www.faa.gov by selecting “Regulations & Policies”from the main menu bar. Aircraft records The FAA Civil Aviation Registry Aircraft Registration Branch (AFS-750) maintains registration records on individual aircraft and serves as a warehouse for airworthiness documents received from FAA field offices. You can access information on requesting aircraft records, as well as current fee information, on the FAA website at www.faa.gov by selecting “Licenses & Certificates”from the main menu bar. Request Aircraft Records You can mail or fax your request for aircraft records to AFS-750, or submit your request online. Written requests from outside the United States must include a check or money order (in U.S. funds) payable to the FAA to cover the projected fee. You can obtain the correct fee by contacting AFS-750. AFS-750 contact information is available at the end of this chapter in Figure 11-1, FAA Records Checklist, and in the FAA Contact Information appendix on pages A1–A2 of this handbook. Format You can order paper copies or electronic copies (on CD-ROM) of aircraft records. Each CD-ROM contains one aircraft record. You can view the CD-ROM files using Adobe Acrobat Reader. The FAA includes a copy of the latest reader on the CD-ROM. Most records for aircraft removed from the U.S. Civil Aircraft Register before 1984 are in storage and available only in paper format. You can ask the FAA to retrieve these records. 11-3 Chapter 11: Obtaining FAA Publications and Records 11 Airman records The FAA Civil Aviation Registry Airmen Certification Branch (AFS-760) maintains airman records. You can access information on requesting airman records, as well as current fee information, on the FAA website at www.faa.gov by selecting “Licenses & Certificates” from the main menu bar. There are two ways to obtain copies of your airman records. You can mail the FAA Aeronautical Center (AC) Form 8060-68, Request for Copies of My Complete Airman File; or a signed, written request stating your name, date of birth, and social security number or certificate number. Figure 11-2 at the end of this chapter is a sample FAA Form 8060-68. You can also have copies of your airman records released to a third party. Requests for airman records can be mailed to AFS-760. AFS-760 contact information is available at the end of this chapter in Figure 11-1, FAA Records Checklist, and in the FAA Contact Information appendix on pages A1–A2 of this handbook. When the FAA receives your request, they will notify you of the total charges due and payment options. For an airman or third party to obtain copies of medical records or a duplicate medical certificate, the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request should be mailed to the FAA Civil Aerospace Medical Certification Division, Medical Certification Branch (AAM-331). AAM-331 contact information is available at the end of this chapter in Figure 11-1, FAA Records Checklist, and in the FAA Contact Information appendix on pages A1–A2 of this handbook. 11-4 11 Plane Sense FAA reCords CHeCKlist stAtUs reCords ContACt inFormAtion •Aircraft Documents Federal Aviation Administration Aircraft Registration Branch, AFS-750 P.O.
