I can only speak for the Squirrels here, but maybe the rest of the Aerospat/Eurocopters are the same?

The 'G' used to be 5000hr/12yr major insp, but about 2001 was changed to a few 'out of phase' insp's at 5000 hr and the major, now called 'C' every 12 years.

Hope this helps.

Thumbs up

Thanks for the response LPS500

What I gathered so far is that it seems to be like you said.

Has anybody got any "online links" perhaps ?

Many thanks,

Gunns

As far as I can tell there's no online links to what you want. The closest I've been able to find is on the eurocopter usa website under publications. The eurocopter france website is few and far between to say the least. if you want I can ask around the traps and see what people know. Let me know specifics if you can. Cheers.

You can look through the 'glossary of terms' here

"G" check Major Inspection with flying hour interval (3,600 hours)
"C" check Major Inspection with calendar interval 8 years
