including compliance with all applicable ADs and
assuring that maintenance is properly recorded.
• Keeping abreast of current regulations concerning the
operation and maintenance of the aircraft.
• Notifying the FAA Aircraft Registry immediately of
any change of permanent mailing address, of the sale
or export of the aircraft, or of the loss of the eligibility
to register an aircraft. (Refer to 14 CFR, part 47,
section 47.41.)

Chapter Summary
Knowledge of an aircraft’s AFM/POH and documents,
such as ADs, provide pilots with ready access to pertinent
information needed to safely fly a particular aircraft. By
understanding the operations, limitations, and performance
characteristics of the aircraft, the pilot can make educated
flight decisions. By learning what preventive maintenance
is allowed on the aircraft, a pilot can maintain his or her
aircraft in an airworthy condition. The goal of every pilot is
a safe flight. Flight manuals and aircraft documentation are
essential tools used to reach that goal.
