An Insight into the 100hr Inspection

San Carlos Flight Center invites A&P Tim Davis to give an overview of the 100 hour and annual inspection. In this seminar he will detail the tasks that are performed in a typical 100-hour inspection, provide an overview of the pertinent regulations, and highlight who can perform the maintenance. Tim will also describe how a non-mechanic, such as a pilot, can assist in the inspection of their aircraft. Using real-life examples discovered during 100-hour inspections, Tim will highlight items that pilots should be on the lookout for during their next preflight inspection.

Every pilot should understand the maintenance process performed on the aircraft they fly, so do not miss this opportunity to learn about the 100-hour inspection, increase your maintenance IQ and become a savvy pilot.

Tim Davis is an A&P and aircraft mechanic at San Carlos Flight Center.  A Bay Area native, he worked as a Quality Analyst for Electronic Arts and Blizzard Entertainment before completing aircraft maintenance training at City College of San Francisco and earning his A&P certificate.
