SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE CHECKS
1. General
A. The inspection time intervals chart contained in this chapter shows the recommended intervals at
which maintenance and maintenance checks should be carried out on the aircraft.
Annual inspections and 100 hour inspections on the AQUILA AT01 must include all inspection
items as required by FAR 43, Appendix D, “Scope and detail of annual/100h inspections”.
Chapter 4 “Airworthiness Limitations“ of this manual defines the inspection intervals for
continued airworthiness.
B. If an aircraft is being operated under unusual environmental conditions, maintenance intervals
may be reduced.
2. Inspection Time Intervals Chart
A. The maintenance and checks listed are to be carried out at the specified intervals and documented
appropriately.
NOTE: For new aircraft and new engines the first check is carried out after 25 hours and should
be of the extent of a 100-hour inspection. For new engines only an engine ground run
and the checks listed in the “Engine” section have to be carried out.
NOTE: If more than 30% of operation hours have been flown with leaded fuel (e.g. AVGAS
100LL), an additional 50-hour inspection is necessary (refer to ROTAX Aircraft Engines
SI-912-016).
NOTE: Where an interval is given in both flight time and calendar time, the limit which is
reached first must be applied. The next interval starts with the flight time and calendar
time of the latest performed maintenance check.
B. For intervals between maintenance work, the following tolerances must not be exceeded:
Interval Tolerance
up to and including 100 h 10% of interval
>100 h up to and including 1000 h 5% of interval
>1000 h 50 h
calendar time limits 30 days
These tolerances must not me added up. For example: if the 100-hour inspection was done at
107 h, the next inspection must be done at 200
±
10 h, not 207 10 h.
If an inspection is carried out earlier than allowed by the specified tolerance, all subsequent
inspection intervals are counted from that inspection. For example: If the 100 h inspection was
done at 87 h, the next inspection must be done at 187
±
10 h.
