ELA 1 maintenance
I think you need to have a deep and meaningful conversation with your maintenance company.
Although I am not a great fan of the European Project I think this is the first piece of legislation that I see as common sense and cuts through the mindless regulation that has made owning and operating a private aeroplane so difficult and expensive in recent years.
If you have a privately used ELA1 aircraft and want to take the legal responsibility for writing your own maintenance programme you now have every right to do so. As of July 2015 that's the law. The maintenance schedule has to be at least the same as EASA's new MIP schedule but you can make your own decisions on whether to incorporate recommended TBO's on components. I would simply suggest that you make informed decisions on what to incorporate into your maintenance schedule and vice versa.
If your maintenance company suggest that they won't agree (and therefore renew your ARC) go to another one who has a more enlightened attitude to aircraft maintenance...there are plenty of them.
