Frequently asked questions

When can I exceed the 100-hour limit for a Cessna 150 inspection?

FAA regulations allow exceeding the 100-hour limit by up to 10 hours, but only when necessary to reach a place where the inspection can be performed. These additional hours must be counted in the time toward the next required inspection. This provision helps with logistics but shouldn’t be used regularly as a way to extend inspection intervals.

What components should I focus on most during a Cessna 150 100-hour inspection?

Focus particularly on the flight controls, fuel system, and engine components as these are critical safety systems. Pay special attention to control cables for fraying, fuel lines for leaks, and engine mounts for cracks. These areas tend to show wear first and addressing issues early prevents more serious problems during operation.

What documentation do I need to complete after finishing a Cessna 150 100-hour inspection?

You must make an entry in the aircraft’s maintenance logbook stating the inspection was completed in accordance with FAR 43.15(c). Include the date, total aircraft time, your signature, certificate type, and number. Also retain the completed checklist with detailed notes about findings and corrective actions as supporting documentation for your records.
