I emailed Braam Hector at CAA to get the true story
As the Owner-Builder of my Bushbaby I will carry out my own maintenance and will take CAA's statements over RAASA. I do agree with having an AP do the annual, it is always good to have another set of eyes checking things out.Braam Hector wrote:We are looking at amending the legislation to ensure that owner can do some of their own maintenance. (Not yet promulgated)
The owner/builder can do his own maintenance but the annual inspection should be carried out by another AP. (This is to ensure safety)
The owner(not builder-Morph) can carry out any maintenance as long as it is conducted under the supervision of an appropriately rated AP and the logbooks are signed off to reflect the activities carried out.
