AD 2008-19-05 requires me to perform a compression check on my "Group A" cylinders at 50 hour intervals. My annual conditional inspection is due almost exactly between comp checks.
I also have the same situation with the oil and oil filter, where they have about 20 hours remaining at the conditional. I do not intend to lose 20 hours on the oil and filter just to schedule them to the conditional, and will change the oil and oil filter about 20 hours after, on their own schedule. I have signed off the conditional twice this way in the past.
Do I have the option to perform the 50-hour comp check per the AD separate to the conditional and still consider the conditional to be adequate for sign-off, like the oil and filter? I still plan to inspect, clean, and test the plugs for the conditional.
Thanks for your thoughts.
