Aged Aircraft Program II Cessna 152


1. Cessna 152 Manual is revised by (TEMPORARY REVISION NUMBER 5)                    
                         REASON FOR TEMPORARY REVISION
                           1. To add the Supplemental Inspection Documents (SIDs) Information.
                           2. To add the Corrosion Prevention and Control Program (CPCP) 
                           3. To add Control Cable Inspection Information.
2. CORROSION PREVENTION AND CONTROL PROGRAM (CPCP)
                        As the airplane ages, corrosion occurs more often, while, at the same time, other types of damage such as fatigue cracks occur. Corrosion can cause damage to the airplane's structural integrity and if it is not controlled, the airframe will carry less load than what is necessary for continued airworthiness.
                     To help prevent this, Cessna started a Corrosion Prevention and Control Program (CPCP). A CPCP is a system to control the corrosion in the airplane's primary structure. It is not the function of the CPCP to stop all of the corrosion conditions, but to control the corrosion to a level that the airplane's continued airworthiness is not put in risk.
3. Control Prevention and Control Program Application
             The CPCP gives the information required for each corrosion inspection. Maintenance personnel must fully know about corrosion control. The regulatory agency will give approval and monitor the CPCP for each airplane. The CPCP procedures apply to all airplanes that have exceeded the inspection interval for each location on the airplane.
4. Baseline Program : is part of the CPCP. It is divided into Basic Task and Inspection Interval.  Basic Tasks are referred to as the Corrosion Program Inspection. This program is to be used on all airplanes without an approved CPCP. 
5.Zone Corrosion Program Inspection Procedures.
6.CPCP Function : to give the minimum procedures necessary to control the corrosion so that the continued airworthiness is not put in risk. The CPCP consists of a Corrosion Program Inspection number, the area where the inspection will be done, specified corrosion levels and the compliance time. The CPCP also includes procedures to let Cessna  and the regulatory authorities know of the findings and the data associated with Level 2 and Level 3 corrosion.
This includes the actions that were done to decrease possible corrosion in the future to Level 1.
7.CPCP Reporting : The minimum requirements to prevent or control the corrosion CPCP were made on the best information, knowledge and experience available at the time. As this experience and knowledge increases, the CPCP's intervals will be changed as necessary.
8. Corrosion Found
9.Actions Follow Corrosion : If corrosion is found, find the corrosion level, then do the necessary steps for a specific inspection.
10..Determination of the Corrosion Levels : Find the Corrosion Levels. Corrosion found on a structure when you use the Corrosion Program and Corrosion Prevention.
11.Level 2 Corrosion Findings : All Level 2 corrosion that is more than the rework limits of the approved repair procedures must be reported to Cessna. Cessna will do an analysis to make sure the corrosion is not an urgent airworthiness concern.
12. Types of Corrosion 
13.Corrosion Characteristics : Corrosion is the deterioration of a metal by reaction to its environment. Corrosion occurs because most metals have a tendency to return to their natural state.

Cessna 152 Magneto Check

MAGNETO CHECK. NEVER ADVANCE TIMING BEYOND SPECIFICATIONS IN ORDER TO REDUCE RPM DROP. Too much importance is being attached to RPM drop in single ignition. RPM drop on single ignition is a natural characteristic of dual ignition design. The purpose of the following magneto check is to determine that all cylinders are firing. If all cylinders are not firing, the engine will run extremely rough and cause for investigation will be quite apparent. The amount of RPM drop is not necessarily significant and will be influenced by ambient air temperature, humidity, airport altitude, etc. In fact, absence of RPM drop should be cause for suspicion that the magneto timing has been bumped up and is set in advance of the setting specified. Magneto checks should be performed on a comparative basis between individual right and left magneto performance. a. Start and run engine until the oil and cylinder head temperatures are in normal operating ranges. b. Advance engine speed to 1700 RPM. c. Tu

Brake System Cessna 172

                             BRAKE SYSTEM -MAINTENANCE PRACTICES              1. Description and Operation A. The hydraulic brake system is comprised of two master cylinders, located immediately forward of the  pilot’s rudder pedals, brake lines and hoses, and single-disc, floating cylinder brake assemblies located at  each main landing gear wheel. B. The parking brake system is comprised of a pull-type handle and mechanical connections which are  linked to the rudder pedal assembly. Pulling aft on the brake handle applies mechanical pressure to the  rudder pedals, activating the brakes and locks the handle in place. Turning the handle 90 degrees will  release the parking brake and allow for normal operation through the rudder pedals. C. Brake operation is accomplished by pushing on the upper part of each rudder pedal. This motion is  mechanically transmitted to the respective brake master cylinder, and through fluid-carrying lines out to  the brake assembly where fluid pressure

McCauley Propeller Installation fixed pitch

Propeller Installation for all fixed pitch propellers (except 1A162 model propellers).                   WARNING: MAKE SURE THE MAGNETO IS GROUNDED BEFORE INSTALLING  THE PROPELLER OR CONNECTING EXTERNAL POWER.                NOTE: McCauley recommends that propeller mounting nuts (if applicable) be replaced at each  propeller installation, whenever possible. However, nuts may be reused providing the threads are in good condition and the locking material prevents turning of the nut on the  stud by hand. Propeller mounting bolts must be magnetic particle inspected in accordance  with ASTM E-1444 or replaced whenever the propeller is removed from the engine.                NOTE: The aircraft maintenance manual or STC installation instructions should always be  consulted for any specialized procedures applicable to a specific aircraft. Various spinner arrangements not manufactured by McCauley may be used which require additional procedures. (1) Make sure the mating surfaces of t
