FAQ: Annual Inspection Maintenance Records

If you found this you’re probably already familiar with Annual Inspections. When are they required or who can do them? Often people have a misconception on how it must be documented in the logbook and expect the IA to sign off the Annual on every logbook, but….

Does the recording of the Annual need to be documented in the the airframe, engine, and propeller log?

“Recording of an annual inspection does not require an entry in each airframe, engine, and propeller logbook. The annual inspection is performed to the aircraft. The record entry only needs to be made in the airframe logbook. However, owners/operators can make the entry in each logbook, if they wish.”
