Operational Inspection
An operational inspection is a check intended to determine that a component or system is fulfilling
its intended purpose. The operational inspection does not require quantitative tolerance.
Functional Inspection
When called for by an inspection task, a functional inspection is a quantitative check to determine if
one or more functions of a component perform within specified limits. The functional inspection is
a comparative examination of a component or system against a specific standard.
CONDITION INSPECTION TASKS
If the aircraft is registered in the United States, ASTM F2483 requires that all LSA category
airplanes must undergo a complete inspection at least once every 12 calendar months. An
authorized maintenance person, as described in ASTM F2483, must perform this inspection. A
signed and dated record must be maintained as each inspection task is completed. When the last
task of the inspection has been completed, the Inspection Report is to be signed off in the log
book/maintenance record. The inspection items to be covered in the condition inspection are
identical to the 100-hour Inspection items. The inspection interval to the next condition inspection
may not exceed twelve calendar months.
PERIODIC INSPECTION TASKS
If the aircraft is operated commercially (for hire) in the United States, it must also have an
inspection every 100 flight hours. The 100-hour interval between inspections should never be
exceeded by more than 10 hours, and then only if additional time is required to reach a place where
the inspection can be satisfactorily accomplished. Additionally, the time the interval was exceeded
must be included as flight hours in the next 100-hour interval. Inspection tolerances cannot be
accumulated.
ZLIN AVIATION S.R.O. considers the inspections described in the following chapters as
mandatory/obligatory to ensure the safe operation of the Savage Aircraft. Therefore strictly
follow instructions as hereunder.
