C I R R U S AIRPLANE MAINTENANCE MANUAL MODEL SR22 PROGRESSIVE INSPECTION PROGRAM 1. DESCRIPTION The Cirrus Design Progressive Inspection Program is designed to meet Federal Aviation Requirements Parts 43.15 and 91.409. This program was developed to maximize integrity and safety for aircraft with annual expected usage rates in excess of 400 hours. Airplanes operating less than 400 hour annual usage may also utilize this program, if desired. The Progressive Inspection Program provides for the complete inspection of a specific aircraft utilizing a five-phase cyclical inspection program. An inspection is accomplished every 50 hours of time in service (+/-10 hours). At the completion of the 400 hour phase inspection, the program will accomplish a full Inspection of the aircraft, constituting an Annual Inspection. If 400 hours are not flown within 12 calendar months from program start, all remaining Phase Inspections must be completed to retain the aircraft within the parameters of the program, and within the guidelines of 14 CFR 91.409. A. Eligibility Cirrus Design SR22 airplanes with serial numbers 0002 and subsequent are eligible for the Progres- sive Inspection Program. Eligible airplanes must meet one of the following conditions: • The airplane must have less than 50 hours total time in service, calendar time remaining within the Annual Inspection period, and comply with all applicable Airworthiness Directives, Special Inspec- tion Requirements, and Mandatory Service Bulletins before initiating the Progressive Inspection Program. (cid:129) Airplanes with more than 50 hours time in service must complete an Annual Inspection and com- ply with all applicable Airworthiness Directives, Special Inspection Requirements, and Mandatory Service Bulletins before initiating the Progressive Inspection Program. B. Initiating the Progressive Inspection Program To initiate the Progressive Inspection Program, the owner or operator must: (cid:129) United States: Submit a letter of request and a copy of the Progressive Inspection Program for approval to the Flight Standards District Office having jurisdiction over the area in which the appli- cant is located. A certified mechanic holding an Inspection Authorization or an appropriately certi- fied Repair Station will be required to supervise or conduct the Progressive Inspection. Approval must be obtained before initiating this program. (cid:129) International: Submit the appropriate applications and a copy of the Progressive Inspection Pro- gram for approval to the government agency having jurisdiction over the area in which the appli- cant is located. (cid:129) Make an entry in the airplane maintenance records stating that airplane has been placed on the Progressive Inspection Program in accordance with 14 CFR 91.409 (d), noting the airplane total time in service and date. Note: A sample Letter of Request is provided on the following pages.

Conducting the Progressive Inspection Program (cid:129) Pre-Inspection: (a) Review airplane inspection records and maintenance history. (b) Determine which Phase Inspection is due. (c) Note any discrepancies indicated by owner or operator. (d) Determine and comply with any FAA Airworthiness Directives. Ensure required compli- ance will not become due prior to the next scheduled inspection and contrary to the instructions contained within the directive. (e) Inspect airplane records to determine hourly and calendar replacement times for compo- nents and expendable filters. (cid:129) Complete the applicable Phase Inspection: The Progressive Inspection Program provides a checklist for each Phase Inspection and is used in conjunction with the Cirrus Design Airplane Maintenance Manual, Illustrated Parts Catalog, and all other applicable manufactures and vendor maintenance, service manuals, and bulletins. Each Phase Inspection outlines Routine and Detailed maintenance/inspection tasks. These tasks are numbered in sequence and must be performed in sequence. Each Phase Inspection form must be completed in full. (f) Each Phase Inspection begins with the Airplane Operational and Functional Check (Refer to 05-30). This check allows for the operational check of essential airplane systems. Any defects found during the operational check should be noted and addressed before return- ing the airplane to service. (g) Perform the specified Routine and Detailed Inspections. Complete each Phase Inspection form in full. 1 Routine Inspections are regular procedures generally consisting of a Visual or Oper- ational Inspection of the airplane, component, or system. 2 Detailed Inspections are comprehensive examinations or Functional Inspections of the airplane, component, or system. Disassembly is required as necessary to gain access for the inspection of assemblies and related sub-assemblies. (h) Each Phase Inspection ends with a Airplane Operational and Functional Check and a Post Run-Up Inspection. These inspections allow for the operational check of essential airplane systems, leak checks, and status verification of Airworthiness Directives, Service Bulle- tins, and airplane documents. (i) In the airplane maintenance records: 1 Enter date of inspection and airplane total time. 2 Enter type of inspection accomplished. Note: Inspection must be completed by a certified mechanic holding an Inspector Authorized (IA) or a Certified Repair Station. 3 Enter the signature, certificate number, and kind of certificate held by the mainte- nance Facility/Inspector. 4 Enter the following or similarly worded statement: “I certify that in accordance with a Progressive Inspection Program a Routine Inspection of (identify whether airplane or components) and a Detailed Inspection of (identify components) were performed and the (airplane or components) are (approved/disapproved) for return to service”. If disapproved, the entry will further state “a list of discrepancies and un-airworthy items dated (date) has been provided to the owner/operator”. 05-21 EFFECTIVITY: All Page 2 15 Apr 2007 C I R R U S AIRPLANE MAINTENANCE MANUAL MODEL SR22 5 Enter the hours when next inspection will be due. Example: “Next Phase Inspection due at 526.25 time in service”. (j) At the conclusion of the Phase-II 400 Hour Inspection repeat the program starting with the Phase-I 50 Hour Inspection. D. Canceling the Progressive Inspection Program (cid:129) The owner or operator must notify the local Flight Standards District Office in writing before discon- tinuing the Progressive Inspection Program. (cid:129) After discontinuance, the first Annual Inspection will be due within 12 calendar months after com- pletion of the Phase-II 400 Hour Inspection. The 100 Hour inspection will be due within 100 hours of the Phase-II 400 Hour Inspection. E. Airplanes Away From Normal Base Of Operation If airplane is away from base of operation where inspections are normally conducted, a certified tech- nician holding an Inspection Authorization or appropriately certified Repair Station may perform inspection. The inspection will be completed in appropriate sequence and in accordance with procedures and forms of technician who would normally perform the inspection. Electronic transmittal is acceptable means of communicating procedures and forms from normal base of operation to technician perform- ing inspection. 2.
