Missing Aircraft Log Book
Hi all
Sadly we have a lovely SEP for which the Log Book has been destroyed in an unfortunate incident. Aircraft is due for ARC so any advice would be very much appreciated.
many thanks

a. It's not going anywhere - stop flying it now.
b. Dig up your archived records and find out when last maintenance was carried out on each and every thing you can.
c. Find as many Forms 1 as you can and confirm the parts fitted.
d. Compare that to the maintenance programme for that aircraft type
e. Open a new Log and state on the first page that it is a "Duplicate" Log Book and the reasons why.
f. Confirm your findings to the CAA and start planning a large maintenance check with penalty removals/overhauls.
The CAA should (?) see your docs and reasons / equations for stating new lives for all components fitted. They may ask for a C Check to restart the new Maint Prog - unless you can prove what maintenance was carried out last, Hours, Cycles etc and for the components fitted.
Your new ARC should be issued when they stamp the new Log Book (at your cost).
Unfortunately, the main reason against loosing Log Books is because it means re-establishing the fullest control of your aircraft.
