50 HOUR PROGRESSIVE INSPECTION MANUAL
INTRODUCTION
Piper Aircraft, Inc. (Piper) takes a continuing interest in having the owner get the most efficient use from his
airplane, and keeping the airplane in the best mechanical condition. To that end, Piper publishes a recurring
maintenance schedule which is supplemented with Service Bulletins, Service Letters and Service Spares
Letters as required.
A. The Piper PA-42 / PA-42-720 Cheyenne III / IIIA Maintenance Manual (P/N 761-523) constitutes
the Instructions for Continued Airworthiness (ICA) in accordance with Federal Aviation Regulations
(FAR) Part 23, Appendix G. Therein, 5-20-00 contains the Inspection Program. The Airworthiness
Limitations are reproduced herein, on page 13.
B. The recurring maintenance schedule for the PA-42 Cheyenne III and PA-42-720 Cheyenne IIIA
airplanes is available in two forms.
(1) a 100 Hour Progressive Inspection Program, which is provided in section 5-20-00 of the
maintenance manual and is available separately as P/N 761-739; and,
(2) the 50 Hour Progressive Inspection Program presented herein.
NOTE: This inspection manual is not a stand-alone document. It constitutes a snapshot of
the Airworthiness Limitations and Inspection sections of the Instructions for Continued
Airworthiness (ICA) and is current only at the time of printing. Use it as follows:
(1) Owners/operators desiring to establish a Part 91 Progressive Inspection Program

(PIP) (see 91.409(d)) or a Part 135 Approved Aircraft Inspection Program (AAIP) (see
135.419) should use this manual as a template for submission to the appropriate FAA
office.
(2) Service centers conducting Event Cycle inspections under a FAA-approved PIP or
AAIP can use this manual as a working check-off list/form, provided they verify its
currency against the FAA-approved PIP or AAIP.
(3) Service centers conducting Part 91 Annual / 100 Hour Inspections (see paragraph 3C,
page 15) can use this manual as a working check-off list/form, provided they verify its
currency against an up-to-date copy of the ICA (i.e. - the PA-42 / PA-42-720 Cheyenne

C. Piper Service Bulletins are of special importance and Piper considers compliance mandatory.
D. Service Letters deal with product improvements and service hints pertaining to the aircraft. Owners
should give careful attention to the service letter information so they can ensure their airplane is
properly serviced and kept up to date with the latest changes.
E. Service Spares Letters offer improved parts, kits and optional equipment which were not available
originally. These may be of interest to the owner.
F. Service Bulletins, Service Letters and Service Spares Letters are emailed to Piper Dealers/Service
Centers. Owners are encouraged to download these service publications from http://www.piper.com/.
NOTE: Piper mails flight manual (POH) revisions to the registered owner’s name and address as
shown on the Aircraft Registration Certificate. If the aircraft is based and/or operated at a
different location (or locations) and/or by a person (or persons) other than those recorded on
the aircraft registration, then the registered owner(s) is responsible for forwarding these to the
operating location(s) or person(s).
Changes in aircraft registration may take a substantial amount of time to be recorded by
the Federal Aviation Administration and received by Piper to change the mailing address.
Owners and operators should make arrangements to keep abreast of flight manual
revisions and service publications during this interim period through their Piper Dealer/
Service Center.
May 15/12 3
PIPER AIRCRAFT
PA-42 / PA-42-720
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) publishes Airworthiness Directives (AD’s) that apply to
specific aircraft. They are mandatory changes and are to be complied within a time limit set by the
FAA. When an AD is issued, it is sent to the latest registered owner of the affected aircraft and also
to subscribers of the service. The owner is solely responsible for being aware of and complying with
airworthiness directives.
NOTE: A searchable database of AD’s is available on the FAA website. See the “Airworthiness
Directives” link at “www1.faa.gov”. Additionally, Avantext offers a free email notification
service for new AD’s as well as the last six weeks worth of AD’s at “www.avantext.com”.
Owners should periodically check with a Piper Dealer/Service Center to find out the latest information
to keep his aircraft up to date.
Availability
Maintenance Manuals, parts catalogs, inspection reports and manuals, Service Bulletins, Service
Letters, and Service Spares Letters are available by subscription as described in the Owner
Publications Catalog (part of the Customer Service Information File, available online at http://pubs.

1. Description
WARNING: FAILURE TO CONSULT APPLICABLE VENDOR PUBLICATION(S), WHEN SERVICING OR
INSPECTING VENDOR EQUIPMENT INSTALLED IN PIPER AIRCRAFT, MAY RENDER
THE AIRCRAFT UNAIRWORTHY. (SEE maintenance manual - INTRODUCTION -
supplementary publications.)
The recurring maintenance schedule for the PA-42 Cheyenne III and PA-42-720 Cheyenne IIIA airplanes
is provided herein as a 50 Hour Progressive Inspection Program. Successful compliance with this
inspection program requires reference to the latest revision of the PA-42 / PA-42-720 Cheyenne III / IIIA
Maintenance Manual, P/N 761-523, (i.e. - the Instructions for Continued Airworthiness (ICA)). See the
availability statement in the Introduction. References to section (i.e. - 55-10-00) and chapter (i.e. - Chapter
74) throughout this inspection manual are to the corresponding entries in the maintenance manual - with
the exception of 5-30-00, which is reproduced herein as the Special Inspections Work Sheet.
Piper Progressive Inspection Programs comply with the FAA Federal Aviation Regulations Parts 43, 91
and 135. The owner/operator is primarily responsible for maintaining the airplane in an airworthy condition,
including compliance with all applicable Airworthiness Directives and conformity with the requirements in
FAR 91.409, 91.411 and 91.413.
The first overhaul or replacement of components should be performed at the given periods. The condition
of various components can then be used as criteria for determining subsequent periods applicable to
the individual airplane, depending on usage, providing the owner/operator has an established Part 91
Progressive Inspection Program (see 91.409(d)) or Part 135 Approved Aircraft Inspection Program (see
135.419).
The time periods given for inspections of various components are based on average usage and
environmental conditions.
NOTE: The listed inspection, overhaul and replacement schedules do not guarantee that a particular
item or component will reach the listed time without malfunction. Unique operating conditions
encountered by individual airplanes cannot be controlled by the manufacturer.
2. Definitions
A. Inspections - Must be performed only by persons authorized by the FAA, or appropriate National
Aviation Authority, who are qualified on this aircraft, using acceptable methods, techniques and practices
to determine physical condition and detect defects.
(1) Routine Inspection - Consists of a visual examination or check of the aircraft and its components
and systems without disassembly.
(2) Detailed Inspection - Consists of a thorough examination of the appliances, the aircraft and the
components and systems with such disassembly as is necessary to determine condition.
(3) Special Inspection - Involves those components, systems or structure which by their application
or intended use require an inspection peculiar to, more extensive in scope or at a time period
other than that which is normally accomplished during the event inspection.
B. Checks - Can be performed by pilots and/or mechanics who are qualified on this aircraft and consists
of examinations in the form of comparisons with stated standards for the purpose of verifying condition,
accuracy and tolerances.
C. Approved Inspection - Means a continuing airworthiness inspection of an airplane and its various
component and systems at scheduled interval in accordance with procedures approved by the FAA
under FAR Part 91.409(d) or Part 135.419.
May 15/12 17
PIPER AIRCRAFT
PA-42 / PA-42-720
D. Tests - Operation of aircraft components, appliances or systems to evaluate functional performance.

(1) Operational Test - A task to determine that an item, is fulfilling its intended purpose.The task does
not require quantitative tolerances. This is a fault finding task.
(2) Functional Test - A quantitative check to determine, if one or more functions of an item performs
within specified limits. This test may require the use of supplemental bench test equipment.
(3) In addition, each of the above tests must be performed by an FAA Certified Repair Station with
appropriate ratings or by a Certified Mechanic who is qualified on this aircraft. The recording of
the above function must be made in the permanent aircraft records by the authorized individual
performing the test.
E. Bench Test - Means removal of component from the aircraft to inspect for cleanliness, impending
failure, need for lubrication, repair or replacement of parts and calibration to at least the manufacturers
specifications using the manufacturers recommended test equipment or standards or the equivalent.
Each bench test will be performed by a Piper Service Center, FAA Certified Repair Station with
appropriate rating or by a certified mechanic. This test will be performed at the scheduled interval
regardless of any bench test performed on a particular component while being repaired/overhauled
before scheduled interval bench test. After the component is installed into the aircraft, an operational test
of the component and its related system should be performed to ensure proper function. Serviceable
parts that were issued to the component will be filed in the aircraft permanent records. The person
performing the test must make appropriate entries in the aircraft’s permanent maintenance record.
F. Maintenance - The word maintenance as defined by FAR Part 1, means “inspection, overhaul, repair,
preservation and the replacement of parts, but excludes preventive maintenance.”
G. On Condition Maintenance - A primary maintenance process having repetitive inspections or tests to
determine the condition of units, systems, or portions of structure with regard to continued serviceability
(corrective action is taken when required by item condition.)
H. Time - as used in this manual.
(1) Time-in-service for aircraft components, unless otherwise specified, is a cumulative total of
flight hours or calendar time calculated from the time a new or overhauled component was first
installed in any aircraft, and including:
(a) the aircraft time that elapses from the initial installation to the first removal, if any; and,
(b) the aircraft time that elapses from each subsequent installation to each subsequent removal,
if any; or,
(c) the calendar time elapsed since the installation.
NOTE: Dates stamped on individual components at the time of manufacture are typically
applied to determine shelf life - i.e. the maximum time allowed from manufacture/
assembly/cure until actually installed in an aircraft and are not relevant.
Do not, however; ignore markings applied to life-limited parts when removed with time
and/or cycles remaining on them.
(2) Aircraft time, flight hours, or aircraft hours are the “Hobbs Time” shown on, or calculated from,
the installed “Hour Meter.”
(3) A complete “engine cycle” is defined as engine start, idle, takeoff, flight, landing, idle, and
shutdown. Many aircraft operations involve partial engine cycles (i.e. - idle, takeoff, flight, landing,
idle) that, with the application of an appropriate formula (see P&WC Service Bulletin No. 3002
or 13002), are also factored into the calculation of service life limits.
NOTE: The owner/operator is responsible for recording and calculating life limiting cycles.

3. Inspection Requirements
warning: Instructions for continued airworthiness (ICA) for all non-piper
approved stc installations are not included in this manual. when a
non-piper approved stc installation is incorporated on the airplane,
those portions of the airplane affected by the installation must be
inspected in accordance with the ica published by the owner of the
stc. since non-piper approved stc installations may change systems
interface, operating characteristics and component loads or
stresses on adjacent structures, the piper provided ica may not be
valid for airplanes so modified.
Inspections must be accomplished by persons authorized by the FAA or appropriate National Aviation
Authority.
A. Progressive Inspection Program
The Piper Progressive Inspection Program complies with the F.A.A. Federal Aviation Regulations
(FAR) Parts 43, 91 and 135 for progressive inspections. The owner/operator is primarily responsible
for maintaining the airplane in an airworthy condition, including compliance with all applicable
Airworthiness Directives and conformity with the requirements in FAR 91.409, 91.411 and 91.413.
The complete cycle inspection consists of four (4) 50 hour events, which provides for a complete
aircraft inspection in 200 aircraft flying hours. The complete inspection, Events (1)–(4), must be
completed within twelve (12) calendar months.
The Progressive Inspection Program is designed to permit best utilization of the aircraft through
the use of a planned inspection schedule. This schedule is contained herein (i.e. - paragraph 4). To
ensure you have the latest issue, see the availability statement at the end of the Introduction.
NOTE: This publication is not a stand-alone document. The Progressive Inspection Manual consitutes
a snapshot of the Airworthiness Limitations and Inspection sections of the Instructions for
Continued Airworthiness (ICA) and is current only at the time of printing. Use it as follows:
(1) Owners/operators desiring to establish a Part 91 Progressive Inspection Program

(PIP) (see 91.409(d)) or a Part 135 Approved Aircraft Inspection Program (AAIP) (see
135.419) should use this publication as a template for submission to the appropriate
FAA office.
(2) Service centers conducting Event Cycle inspections under a FAA-approved PIP or
AAIP can use this publication as a working check-off list/form, provided they verify its
currency against the FAA-approved PIP or AAIP.
(3) Service centers conducting Part 91 Annual Inspections (see paragraph C, below) can
use this publication as a working check-off list/form, provided they verify its currency
against an up-to-date copy of the ICA (i.e. - the PA-42 / PA-42-720 Cheyenne III / IIIA
Maintenance Manual, P/N 761-523, Chapters 4 and 5).
B. Overlimits Inspections
If the airplane has been operated so that any of its components have exceeded their maximum
operational limits, special inspections may be required by Piper and/or the component manufacturer.
See 5-50-00 and applicable vendor publications.
C. Annual / 100 Hour Inspection
Owners/operators may maintain the airplane solely under FAR 91.409 (a) and (b) inspection
requirements. The inspection checklist for such an annual/100 hour inspection consists of all Events
(1)–(4) from the 50 hour Progressive Inspection Program described above.

PIPER AIRCRAFT
PA-42 / PA-42-720
4. Progressive Inspection Procedure

The progressive inspection program cycle consists of four (4) 50 Hour Events, which provide for a complete
aircraft inspection in 200 aircraft flying hours. The complete inspection cycle, Events (1)–(4), must be
completed within twelve (12) calendar months.
Each Event Inspection consists of a predetermined number of location inspections, both routine and
detailed, as indicated below. The Event Inspections are conducted each 50 hours and must be done in
sequence. Each Event Inspection will be conducted using an Event Inspection Work Sheet and, when
completed, recorded in the Event Inspection Record.
Late compliance with the Event Inspection Interval of 50 hours may be extended by not more than five (5)
flying hours (10% of Event Inspection Interval). The excess time, however, must be deducted from the next
50 flying hours.
Early compliance can be accomplished at the owner/operator’s discretion for convenience of scheduling.
However, where early compliance is accomplished, the 50 flying hour interval for the next event inspection
will be maintained.
The Event Inspections are arranged so that the 200 flying hour cycle results in a complete inspection.
When all four Events are complete and recorded, an entry is made in the Progressive Inspection Cycle
Record and Sign-off Sheet which is the running log or current status of the aircraft’s inspections.
A. Overview
(1) Four (4) Event Inspections at 50 Hour Intervals. Work sheets are provided as follows:
(a) Event #1 (50, 250, 450, 650, 850 flight hours, etc.)

If the airplane is to be away from the home location at the time an inspection is due, the pilot-in
command of the flight will take with him all sign off sheets which will be required for the inspection,
and a copy of this manual. The inspection will be conducted or supervised by one of the following:
(1) An appropriately certified repair station.
(2) An appropriately rated certified mechanic, qualified on this type aircraft.
The results of the inspection will be noted on the proper sign off sheets which are then brought back
to the home base. The pilot will be responsible for all inspection forms and work sheet entries with
mechanics and/or inspector’s signature and identification.
Discrepancies affecting the airworthiness of the airplane, when the airplane is away from the local
station, will be corrected by either 1 or 2, above. The pilot will be responsible for all work sheet entries
with mechanics and/or inspector’s signature and identification.
