4.1 Overall maintenance survey
Aircraft maintenance is required to mantain its airworthiness. Periodical events are performed
(periodical and pre-flight inspections) along with irregular events e.g. a repair of a damage as
required.
4.2 Pre-flight inspection
A pre-flight inspection is performed prior to the beginning of each flight. A pre-flight inspection
should be repeated prior to each flight even during the same day.
The Pre-flight inspection is a visual check of the aircraft for deformations, surface damage, fuel
and oil system leaks, prop damage, released locks, covers and cowlings etc.
Any damage or failure should be repaired immediately if the airworthiness is affected or when the
aircraft can not be put out of operation.
It is important to perform a pre-flight inspection carefully to prevent problems from arising.
Refer to the Pilot's Operating Handbook for more details.
4.3 Post-flight inspection
Post-flight inspection is performed at the end of each flight day; the post-flight inspection events
are the same as the preflight ones. If possible failures, damages and malfunctions should be
recorded and repaired immediately. It is recommended to clean and/or wash the airplane and
check that the fuel and oil consumption are in the normal range.
Lastly record all hours flown and other data in appropriate documentation (Log Book etc.).
