Cessna 152 100-hour inspection checklist

Use the “NO” checkboxes to mark any issues found, then add detailed notes about the specific discrepancy in the comments section. Include measurements, part numbers, and reference to maintenance manual sections when applicable. This documentation helps track recurring issues and provides clear guidance for mechanics performing the necessary repairs.

Plan inspections at least 5-10 hours before reaching the 100-hour limit to accommodate unexpected findings. Schedule during slower operational periods and combine with other required maintenance tasks. The checklist helps streamline the process, but allow at least 4-8 hours of maintenance time plus parts availability for common replacement items.

Have new technicians shadow experienced mechanics using the checklist, then gradually transition to performing sections independently. The template guides them through critical inspection points while building familiarity with Cessna 152 systems. Review completed checklists together to discuss findings and proper documentation techniques before signing off on work.
