Which brings us back to the fact that (as per CASA's maintenance guide for owner / operators) "the safety recommendations in an AWB are not mandatory...", so the advice I am being given that I HAVE NO OPTION but to comply with an overhaul of the magnetos on my left engine, which were removed, dismantled, inspected and had parts replaced 130hrs and 1 year ago, is not true. I have not been convinced otherwise.
My issue is solely with the fact that I am advised that CASA has mandated this action, but the fact is that they have not. They may tell the maintenance shops otherwise, but in the absence of an AD requiring action, all of the regs listed above remain advisory in nature.
