FAA Order 8130.2M — Operating Limitation 16

Appendix D · Table D-1 · p. p172

No person may operate this aircraft unless it is maintained per one of the following inspection programs. The registered owner or operator must select the applicable program below and specify it in the aircraft maintenance records.(a)For previously type-certificated aircraft: 1) A current inspection program recommended by the manufacturer (§ 91.409(f)(3)); or 2) An FAA-approved inspection program under (§ 91.409(f)(4)).(b)Non-type certificated aircraft: An FAA-approved inspection program under (§ 91.409(f)(4)). This program should not be used for an aircraft model under production; instead, use item (a) above. Note: To adjust an inspection interval, the registered owner or operator must submit a request with supporting documentation and data to the responsible Flight Standards Office and obtain concurrence from that office. Inspections must be recorded in the aircraft maintenance records showing the following, or a similarly worded, statement: “I certify that this aircraft has been inspected on [insert date] per [identify applicable inspection program] and found to be in a condition for safe operation.” The entry will include the aircraft’s total time-in-service (or total cycles, if appropriate), and the name, signature, certificate number, and type of certificate held by the person who performed the inspection.

AWCReady decides limitation 16 for you — from the aircraft and the 14 CFR 21.191 purpose.

Not every limitation goes on every aircraft. AWCReady gates each one against the airframe’s attributes and certification basis, asks only the questions that matter in plain language, and assembles a review-ready package.
