How is this act relevant to the subject of returning an aircraft to service?

When an A&P signs a maintenance record the default interpretation of the significance of that signature is it's returned to service for that work performed. If the wings were previously removed and a A&P was hired to replace a vacuum pump, he would replace the vacuum pump and sign the log indicating he did the job correctly and used airworthy parts, and for whatEvery entry in a maintenance record doesn't return the aircraft to service.

This thread has devolved to mud wrestling with a pig, and the pig is enjoying it.
Now, I'm thinking....I need to remove a wheel assembly.
Should I log that....?![]()
Yep, the "trolling for an argument" paid off, one more time.
Well, you've posted quite a few times on a thread you claim is not worthy of your participation. Why?
Secondly, a rather large portion of your posts on this forum seem snide, regardless of the subject matter. So why do you feel like you're any better than Tom? If you disagree with something, or don't feel as though you should contribute, then just give your opinion and leave it at that. Don't continue to come back and say the same unhelpful crap over and over. How many time do the rest of us need to hear that you think the thread is stupid, or that Tom is trolling? Seriously. Take a look in the mirror dude. End of rant.
My apologies to everyone else for the outburst.

And every body except you and Norm learned some thing.
Maybe not Henning.![]()
Tom D does that regularly.![]()
The multiple posts about trolling just got under my skin a little. My apoligies for getting upset about it.
By definition that is trolling.
I never saw where you indicated I had anything to learn?You never once said anything I said was incorrect. The only thing you did was change the conditions in your relentless questioning of the obvious to something inane that could not be answered correctly.
By definition that is trolling.
Is it obvious and inane to everyone though?
To those whom it does not so appear, is a welcome to continue to play in search of enlightenment.
Haha, right on. I don't mean to be a beotch, really. Most of the time you guys are operating over my head anyway, so I don't even notice if someone is baiting. In situations like these, it's difficult for a newb to fugure out who to listen to. Just seemed like y'all were being awfully hard a feller who has I thought has been a pretty helpful member. No offense intended to anyone, well, maybe to R&W a little, but I know he don't give two chits about anything I would say.![]()
I digress.

Did you not continue to ask what the signature meant?

That was me saying I had something to learn, not you, and your answer confirmed what I thought.
Unless I've got some progressive inspection set up, I'd assume the IA has no clue what he's doing with regard to the aircraft paperwork. There's no such thing as an airframe, propeller, or engine annual.If the IA signed each each airframe, engine, and propeller logbook with individual entries using the "airframe annual", "engine annual", and "propeller annual", then each of those has distinct annual sign offs and expirations. If he signed the airframe logbook with the phrase "aircraft annual" instead of airframe, then each part does not require a separate annual sign off. Semantics, but important ones.
Installing an overhauled engine (not the one that was on the plane at the aircraft annual) requires that the engine have an annual inspection of its own recorded in its logbook, since it has not been documented to meet the annual inspection requirements prior to installation on the airframe in question.
But I do, and it's for folks like you that I will continue to post even though I get called a pig for trolling by the internet bullies that frequent this page and are not held responsible for their posts by the moderators.
I feel this page deserves a better reputation than what the few try to make it. We have a multitude of readers, that never post, because the inter net bullies (like Norman, and R&W) that call me for trolling never realize that because of their actions the many will not participate in these threads.
IMHO R&W and Norman should be totally ashamed of them selves for doing what they are famous for. Because all it does is to show them for what they really are. It certainly doesn't stop me for asking a question that generates a topic that every one could learn.
If they are who they say they are with the experience they brag about, they should be an asset to this page ,, but what are they really.

Tell me where in the FARs does it mention either the requirement to have an airframe, propeller, or engine annual nor in Part 43 describe what such would consist of.
The regulations only talk about aircraft having annual inspections. I've never seen an engine or prop manufacturer even putting out ICAs that were keyed to an annual inspection. They're all done on TIS.
Absolutely untrue. An engine or propeller is just a part. It has no "annual" requirement outside of a given aircraft it is installed in. It has a separate log book to keep maintenance records nicely able to follow the part.
to whom it may concern.....the item below is taken from the FAA-G-8082-11A INSPECTION AUTHORIZATION KNOWLEDGE TEST GUIDE.
note the use of the word "aircraft".....and the lack of the words "engine", "appliance", "propeller", .....etc. Also, the lack of the SMOH or engine time in the entry.
So what you are saying is that if you change a engine out it's like changing a light bulb. So why keep a engine logbook it all should go in the airframe logbook as a component of the airframe.If it is a major component that requires a logbook like a engine then it requires a little more notation in the airframe log other than a simple sign off as installed by a A&P.
Are you really that thin skinned? If so, perhaps you should turn off your 'puter and take up knitting.![]()
I wonder why we are not required to record which engine we inspected at each annual?
Wouldn't we be required to log each of these engine annuals on our IA activity sheet at renewal time?

YGBSM.
you mean you're not doing that?![]()
only if it took a 337.
Pretty much, did you feel like you were trolled? How about did you get your chain jerked?
Or don't you know what sarcasm is?
So....you would use a 337 to do an engine change?![]()
This thread was identified as troll-like on page 1. Why are we on page 7 now?
even if it's an approved model listed in the TCDS?Yes. If it isn't the same make or model that was removed.
