I am thinking (just thinking) of purchasing an EASA aircraft CS28 or Technam 2002 and would like to know what maintenance I am able to do. I currently have a Europa and therefore happily and prefer to do my own maintenance.
Any advise or link to information would be most welcome.

Re: Maintenance on an EASA Aircraft
Hi John, why not give the UK agents a ring to find out chapter and verse. PS28 agent is Kairos Aviation down at Compton Abbas - Tel: 01202 805179. Tecnam UK are at Goucestershire Airport 01452 857419.
As far as I am aware the maintenenace regime is very similar to an EASA CoA so if you want to carry out your own maintenance you will need a co-operative engineer who is prepared to let you do it.

Re: Maintenance on an EASA Aircraft
As Pilot/Owner on an EASA aircraft you can do a good deal of the routine maintenance yourself but there are limits. In practical terms you can do the 50Hr/6monthly check but you need the support of an approved organisation for the annual or for any sort of defect rectification.
