An annual inspection was completed on June 10 of last year. Through what date is the aircraft's annual current under 14 CFR 91.409?
Answer: The last day of June this year
The annual is due within the preceding 12 calendar months, so it stays current through the end of the same month the following year.
Which operation requires an aircraft to have a 100-hour inspection in addition to the annual?
Answer: Flight instruction for hire in an aircraft provided by the instructor
91.409(b) applies the 100-hour inspection to aircraft carrying persons for hire or used for flight instruction for hire when the aircraft is provided by the instructor.
How many hours may an aircraft exceed its 100-hour inspection limit to reach a place where the inspection can be done?
Answer: Not more than 10 hours, deducted from the next inspection interval
91.409(b) allows a 10-hour overrun to reach the inspection location, and the excess is subtracted from the next interval.
Can a completed annual inspection be accepted in place of a 100-hour inspection?
Answer: Yes, but a 100-hour inspection cannot be substituted for an annual
91.409(b) allows an annual to satisfy the 100-hour requirement, but not the reverse.
Who may supervise or conduct a progressive inspection program under 14 CFR 91.409(d)?
Answer: A mechanic holding an IA, a certificated repair station, or the aircraft manufacturer
91.409(d) lists an IA holder, an appropriately rated repair station, or the manufacturer.
Under 14 CFR 43.15(b), what must a person use while performing an annual or 100-hour inspection?

43.15(b) requires a checklist that includes the Appendix D scope and detail and the items in 43.13(b).
How often must an installed emergency locator transmitter (ELT) be inspected under 14 CFR 91.207?
