I certify that this aircraft has been inspected in accordance with the requirements of an annual inspection and a list of discrepancies and unairworthy items dated 7/1/2007 has been provided for the aircraft owner or operator. Fred Turnwrench IA#867530906
Hmm, looks like the aircraft failed the annual inspection. You find the list tucked in the front of the logbook. The only problem listed is a badly worn nose tire. Not a big deal, but not something the IA could return the aircraft to service with. The very next entry is by your friend, the aircraft's owner:
7/4/2007 TT:1352 hours
Replaced worn nosewheel tire, cleaned and greased nose wheel bearings in accordance with Cessna Maintenance Manual. Bob. T. Owner, Private Pilot #412582654
Sure enough, it looks like there's a new tire on the plane.
Given the information above, is this airplane legal to go fly? | Yes. FLY SAFE T.C. |
