AIRPLANE INSPECTION PERIODS
WARNING
All inspection intervals, replacement time limits, overhaul time limits, the method of
inspection, life limits, cycle limits, etc., recommended by PIPER are solely based on the use
of new, remanufactured or overhauled PIPER approved parts. If parts are designed,
manufactured, remanufactured, overhauled and/or approved by entities other than
PIPER, then the data in PIPER’S maintenance/service manuals and parts catalogs are no
longer applicable and the purchaser is warned not to rely on such data for non-PIPER
parts. All inspection intervals, replacement time limits, overhaul time limits, the method of
inspection, life limits, cycle limits, etc., for such non-PIPER parts must be obtained from
the manufacturer and/or seller of such non-PIPER parts.
Piper has developed inspection items and required inspection intervals for the PA-28 (see the latest
revision of the PA-28 Service and Inspection Manuals). The PA-28 Inspection Manual contains appropriate
forms, and all inspection procedures should be complied with by a properly trained, knowledgeable, and
qualified mechanic at a Piper Authorized Service Center or a reputable repair shop. Piper cannot accept
responsibility for the continued airworthiness of any aircraft not maintained to these standards, and/or not
brought into compliance with applicable Service Bulletins issued by Piper, instructions issued by the
engine, propeller, or accessory manufacturers, or Airworthiness Directives issued by the FAA.
A Progressive Inspection, approved by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), is also available to the
owner. This involves routine and detailed inspections to allow maximum utilization of the airplane.
Maintenance inspection costs are reduced, and the maximum standard of continued airworthiness is
maintained.
In addition, but in conjunction with the above, the FAA requires periodic inspections on all aircraft to keep
the Airworthiness Certificate in effect. The owner is responsible for assuring compliance with these inspection
requirements and for maintaining proper documentation in logbooks and/or maintenance records.
A spectrographic analysis of the engine oil is available from several sources. This inspection, if
performed properly, provides a good check of the internal condition of the engine. To be accurate, induction
air filters must be cleaned or changed regularly, and oil samples must be taken and sent in at regular
intervals.
