9. Maintenance
9.1 Introduction
This manual details recommended maintenance. However maintenance
requirements will depend upon conditions of storage and type of use.
Examples of harsh use may include:
Storage outside
Use near salt water
Regular use from unprepared rough fields
Regular transport by trailer
Learning to fly
In such cases more regular inspections and component replacement
may be required in order to keep the aircraft in an airworthy condition.
9.2 Who may carry out maintenance, and who’s responsibility is it?
9.2.1 The Nynja 600 has been designed and conceived to be maintained by a
person without specific training in mechanics. However some
mechanical experience is desirable and persons with limited
mechanical capability should limit themselves to the simple
maintenance actions and engage suitably skilled persons to undertake
the more complex tasks. No specific qualifications are legally required
for persons carrying out maintenance work on UK Microlight Aircraft.
9.2.2 The Owner is essentially the ‘maintenance manager’ and must assume
responsibility for ensuring the maintenance actions are carried out as
and when required in order that the aircraft may remain in an airworthy
condition. As such the owner must be thoroughly familiar with this
maintenance manual, and not hesitate to take advice from their local
BMAA inspector, professional maintainer, and / or the aircraft
manufacturer on any points that are not immediately clear.
9.3 Recording and certifying maintenance
9.3.1 All maintenance actions must recorded in the aircraft airframe and
engine log book(s). Separate worksheets and invoices for parts / work,
should be kept in a file that can be referenced in conjunction with the
logbook entries.
