Aircraft Inspections

50 Hour Inspection
Whether you choose to change your oil and filter at 25 or 50 hour intervals, this inspection is far more than the oil change you get on your car!

At Legacy Air, this work will be accomplished by a powerplant certified technician who knows your aircraft engine like nobody else.  Your oil filter will be cut open and the filtering element will be removed and closely examined for foreign matter and signs of metal particles.  This is an essential step for early identification of engine problems and it does not matter if your engine is brand new or has over 2000 hours on it!

While your oil is draining we will closely examine your engine for any signs of abnormal wear or indications of trouble.  You might be surprised what we are able to find and prevent from ever becoming an airworthy issue!

We will also air up your tires, check your battery, and make necessary log book entries.  After we have installed and safety wired a new oil filter and filled your crankcase to the proper level with the aircraft oil of your choice, we will run the engine and check for any leaks or other signs of trouble.

Your aircraft and your safety are our primary concerns!

Annual / 100 Hour Inspction
All Annual/100 hour inspections are not created equal!  This is the most crucial inspection your aircraft gets and it is essential that it is performed thoroughly and meticulously.

At Legacy Air, we will never short cut an annual inspection.  We use detailed check lists and tried and proven methods of inspecting every area of your aircraft.  We welcome aircraft owners to come by and see their plane while we have it “opened up” for this inspection.  If we find airworthy issues, we strongly encourage the owner to come in so we can show them what we have found and explain all the details.  We believe good communication is critical to building trust between ourselves and our customers.

When we are finished with your annual inspection, you can rest assured that your aircraft is as safe and airworthy as we can make it.

Enjoy another year of safe flight!
