Maintenance
Privileges, training and programs that enable SAAA Members to do their own aircraft maintenance.
Most SAAA Members maintain their own aircraft. This only made possible by privileges extended to owner / builders who satisfy certain requirements – essentially that they have built the greater part of their aircraft and that they have passed the CASA accepted but SAAA Maintenance Procedures Course (MPC).
Provided the requirements are met, Members can not only enjoy the process of performing occasional and annual maintenance themselves, they will save tens of thousands of dollars over the life of their aircraft projects.
The MPC also includes a Weight & Balance module, a requirement if a builder wishes to do their own weight and balances – again, a cost saver for Members.
Maintenance activities are also supported by the Member Support Program (MSP) Maintenance Assist Program, in which we strongly encourage Members to participate. It’s free, and participation also affords the opportunity to participate in the SAAA-QBE insurance offer.
