  2. OBJECTIVE • Define preventive maintenance. • Persons authorized to perform preventive maintenance. • Maintenance record entries. • Performance rules (general). • List of Preventive Maintenance work.

  3. Preventive Maintenance - Defined FAR 1 • Simple orMinor preservation operations and the replacement of small standard partsnot involvingcomplex assembly operations.

  4. Persons Authorized to Perform Preventive Maintenance – FAR 43.3 • Holder of a mechanic certificate issued under Part 65 • Holder of a repairman certificate • Holder of Part 145, 121 and 135 certificate • Holder of a Pilot Certificate issued under Part 61 • A person working under the supervisionof a mechanic or repairman

  5. Let’s Take a Closer Look at what type of Pilot is authorized to Perform… PREVENTIVE MAINTENCE

  6. Types of Pilot Licenses • Student Pilot • Recreational Pilot • Sport Pilot • Private Pilot • Commercial Pilot • ATP

  7. A Person holding a Pilot Certificate can perform Preventive Maintenance Although 43.3 does not specify the type of pilot certificate that is required to perform preventive maintenance, 43. 7 does specify at least a private pilot certificate to make the logbook entry. The person making the logbook entry must be the same person who performed the maintenance

  8. Question • Can a holder of at a Private Pilot certificate supervise and sign off preventive maintenance work performed on his/her aircraft if the work is done by another person? A) Yes B) No

  9. Preventive Maintenance FAR 43.3 • The Sport Pilot – Limited to the sport pilot plane that they own or operate.

  10. Preventive Maintenance Items

  11. FAR 43 Appendix A Preventive Maintenance • (1) Removal, installation, and repair of landing gear tires. • (2) Replacing elastic shock absorber cords on landing gear. • (3) Servicing landing gear shock struts by adding oil, air, or both. • (4) Servicing landing gear wheel bearings, such as cleaning and greasing. • (5) Replacing defective safety wiring or cotter keys • (6) – (31)

  12. Types of Aircraft Authorized • Operated under Part 91. • Not operated under FAR 121, 125 or 135
