“Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars? I could really use a wish right now.”
Until recently I never knew all the maintenance required to keep us students (and the instructor, of course) safe flying in a trainer plane. Did you know that trainer planes have to go through inspections every 100 hours? This isn’t a ground check type of inspection. The inspection involves a detailed, systematic evaluation directive. Please review the FAA regulations starting on Page 12.
The very beloved Cessna 152 in which I have been trained is currently going through this 100-hour inspection and maintenance. Pictures from how detailed this process is should be posted within a few days.
In the meantime, I hope you enjoy the mighty Cessna 152 pics below:
May your dreams take flight.
