I'm please to hear that Clinton. Hopefully the guys gloating about cut price maintenance on the other forums are just the vocal minority.
At least with the new Cessna programmes we now have to look into certain areas that may have been missed previously.. in terms of not had the time available to concentrate on any one area.
I like the equalised maintenance programmes but of course they are not utilised on aircraft achieving less than say 200 hrs pa. At least you have a few hours to do a thorough inspection of say the cabin.. and every 200hrs is fine for some of those difficult to get to places anyway.
I have not looked at the Beech owners site but I noted Jaba's comments here about how the cables are difficult to inspect properly.
How have the guys in the States been doing it ?
