Are these really mandatory under EASA rules? In the US, they are not for Part 91 operators.
If this really becomes mandatory, it will be catastrophic. Some of the inspections call for very costly procedures, e.g. the engine mount inspection requires you to remove the engine and most accessories and even recommends doing an engine overhaul while at it (you have until 2015). Others require the application of certain older service bulletins which have always been optional.
The Cessna twin SIDs became mandatory via ADs in the US. Same here?
