Maint of light aircraft under EASA
Hey guys
in a bit of a bind here. I need to know if it is possible to manage and perform your own maint on a light helicopter, or do I need to to send it to a 145 organisation ?
aircraft will not be on an AOC will be used for training.
thank you in advance.

Unless someone is prepared to write out the full answer, I suggest an enjoyable read of Part M.
I think you probably can do what you want to do, but plenty of conditions apply; first one being are you properly qualified to do it?
Available at the EU bookshop, consolidated with AMC/GM, not including ED 2013/005/R which doesn't apply to you anyway. Snip at 18 Euros + shipping.
And I believe there's guidance on the CAA website, if you're prepared to dig for it, that would apply if you are in the UK.

I own and maintain a Cessna on my licence. Not a problem. You will need an arrangement for renewing the ARC with a Part M organisation. As I prepare all the docs and maintain them it costs me about £300 a year. I am a little cautious about the extra requirements a training aircraft might have (if any) as I have no experience in this area.
My annual maintenance costs excluding parts are £300 ARC, £100 Radio Annual.
All other labour is down to me.
