• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

Hi guys,

Having just got this new N registered S1 here in Europe, I'm trying to organize proper maintenance schedule.
I must admit I'm not really familiar with FAA regulations yet in that respect, so according to Pitts / Lycoming / Part 43 aD, I have the following for now :

- 50hrs (Pitts / Lycoming)
- 100hrs (Pitts / Lycoming / Part 43)
- 400 hrs (Lycoming)
- 1000hrs/2 years (Pitts)

What am I missing ?
I see as well everyone seems to have an annual requirement, but can't find the reference for it (I mean, Part 43 mentions it but doesn't state in which cases it would be required). Would some of you have the proper regulation text imposing it ?

And of course more than happy to hear about all I most likely have forgotten or overlooked
