STORAGE - MAINTENANCE PRACTICES

1. General

CAUTION: MAKE SURE THAT THE AIRCRAFT IS IN AN AIRWORTHY CONDITION BEFORE

STORAGE.

A. Aircraft Storage

NOTE: The three types of storage are Flyable Storage (7 Days to 30 Days), Prolonged Storage
(31 Days to 6 Months), and Indefinite Storage (More than 6 Months).

NOTE: The preferred storage is in a closed hangar. At a minimum, a closed hangar must supply
basic protection from the elements, corrosion, microbial growth, and animal or insect
contamination.

NOTE: Review and comply with the aircraft scheduled maintenance program and the FAA
Airworthiness Directives. The focus is on date sensitive items.

(1) Get the necessary tools and equipment.

NOTE: You can use equivalent alternatives for these items.
