  1. Under 14 CFR 43.11, which of the following must be recorded in the maintenance records after completing an annual or 100-hour inspection?

    Answer: The type of inspection, date, aircraft total time, discrepancies found or statement of airworthiness, and the inspector's certificate number and signature

    14 CFR 43.11 requires the inspection record to include the type of inspection, date, aircraft total time, a list of discrepancies or an airworthy statement, and the inspector's certificate number and signature.

  2. An owner/operator of a non-commercial aircraft finds that the 100-hour inspection has been exceeded by 12 hours due to a positioning flight. What is the regulatory requirement?
