Default Inspection schedule

Now that I have completed the test phase what regular inspections are required that I should plan for other than oil changes and the annual inspection.

No other inspections are "required." However, I always recommend a thorough firewall forward inspection any time the cowling is off. Other than that, whatever makes you comfortable.

Your engine may have some recommendations (I know my Superior has a maintenance manual with inspection intervals).
