SB and logbook entry question

[Steve]

What would the correct phrasing written in the engine maintenance logbook to indicate compliance with a Service Bulletin, for example the latest SB from Marvel/Precision/Facet dealing with the new foam floats? Is the supporting documentation attached to the logbook or just kept on file?

Thanks all,
Steve

Steve, just make the entry that you have complied with SB#xxxxx. If you complied with it by changing parts, then indicate that, as well as indicating that the aircraft is approved for return to flight, i.e., ground check, good/no leaks, magneto timing adjusted, etc, then sign and date the logbook.

...remember that the FAA does not use the words "log book" anywhere in the FARs (or ACs, I believe).

They use the much more generic "maintenance records" ....so you can do both things you mention above.

One easy way of doing things -- A short entry in the log book and keep the supporting documentation in a three ring binder or similar.
Use a clear pencil holder to keep yellow tags from straying.



You can even use three of these holders to keep your three log books in the same three ring binder....

Together, the log books and binder become your "maintenance records".
