I have a French manufactured aeroplane, and I have the English version of the maintenance manual. I don't like it, and I use the LAMS/LAMP instead. The main problem with it is that it makes assumptions about the level and type of utilisation that are not appropriate to my operation. The LAMS/LAMP allows a level of discretion in deciding what should be done and when, that I think is better suited to the hugely variable operating conditions that may apply to a particular GA type.
