Another thing to be aware of

Most machines have a published transient inside which there is no maintenance action required.

A lot of machines have a varying list of inspections dependent on, as has been said above how far over you were and for how long. A little bit and for not very long costs less and vice versa.

The newer Agusta 109s (E and S models) have a very specific bit in the maintenance (or perhaps overhaul) manual that says something like above the transient limits remove the gearbox for maintenance at manufacturer (not a direct quote but you get the idea). Could catch some people coming from a 206 background and before anyone says it I wasn't looking because I had done it, I was putting together some training materials.
