RV-12 Annual coming due??

Well Known Member
Was wondering if anyone has a comprehensive annual checklist for our -12's.. seems funny with only 30 hours; but it's been a year since receiving my air wearliness certificate..

Just completed the Rotax warranty 25 hour/100 hour check...so that part is done.

Post # 2 is about as positive as you can get.

The Maint. Manual has a check list and a lubrication/service list.
The inspection standard for the engine is to use the inspection check list in the Rotax line maint. manual.
 
In addition to the above notes on both the Maintenance Manual and ROTAX manuals, suggest you go to Van's website and print off all the RV-12 service bulletins... I put them in a separate binder, in order, and at each annual make sure I go through them all. Some may not apply to your build, some are one time inspections, several are to be repeated annually.
 
For record, how about just printing and using the Vans website list of SBs to annotate compliance, applicability, recurrence?
