$ARGUMENTS
Steps
Logging compliance:
-
Read ad-sb-compliance.tsv at:
~/Library/CloudStorage/GoogleDrive-sritchie09@gmail.com/My Drive/N720AK/Private/Maintenance/
-
Extract or ask for:
- Doc Type: AD, SB, SI, Safety Alert
- Number: e.g., AD 2015-10-09, Van's SB-00007
- Source: FAA, Van's Aircraft, Lycoming, Hartzell, EFII, Garmin, Dynon, Artex
- Subject: Brief description
- Applies to N720AK?: Yes / No / Partial
- Status: Complied / Not Yet / N/A / Deferred
- Compliance Date: When complied
- Compliance Method: What was done (one-time or recurring)
- Next Due: For recurring items — hours or calendar date
- Logbook Reference: Which log file and approximate date of the maintenance entry
- Notes: Rationale for deferral, partial applicability details, etc.
-
Append a row to ad-sb-compliance.tsv
-
Also create a maintenance log entry in the appropriate log file if actual work was performed
Checking what's due:
- Read
ad-sb-compliance.tsv
- Filter for recurring items with a Next Due date/hours
- Compare against current tach/hobbs (ask if not known)
- Report what's due, coming due, or overdue
Reviewing new ADs/SBs:
Help the user evaluate applicability. Key sources for N720AK:
- FAA ADs: Check for Lycoming IO-540, any installed certified components (GTN 650, Artex ELT 345)
- Van's SBs: vansaircraft.com/service-information-and-revisions/ (filter by RV-10). Advisory for E-AB but strongly recommended.
- Lycoming SBs/SIs: Advisory for experimentals, best practice to follow
- EFII bulletins: For System32 EFI/ignition system
- Propeller manufacturer: Check for applicable SBs
For each new AD/SB, determine:
- Does it apply to N720AK's specific configuration?
- Is it one-time or recurring?
- What's the compliance deadline (if AD)?
- What work is required?
- Add to tracking spreadsheet with appropriate status
