New aircraft have become expensive and somewhat scarce, creating a demand for up-to-date information on ways to keep used airplanes flying longer. This manual provides plenty of innovative ideas for increasing airplane longevity by using the most recent techniques available in an environment in which technology and regulations are ever-changing. The authors focus on increasing the life of aircraft through preventive maintenance and sound operating procedures. The benefits of such a regimen are twofold. First, by establishing routine maintenance checks, airplane owners can save money on emergency repairs. Second, by becoming more familiar with how their planes operate, they can also become safer pilots. Individual chapters cover FAA regulations regarding maintenance and repairs, cleaning and storage, troubleshooting aircraft systems, operating tips for extending life, do-it-yourself maintenance, the annual 100-hour inspection, and more.

The authors did a good job of describing how to maintain your airplane and even save money on the annual inspection. They used FAR 43, the regulation that says what an owner/operator is allowed to do, and went through it, line by line. They explain what the regulations mean, what parts you can use, why it's a good thing to have the oil analyzed and a lot of other stuff I found very helpful.
