Basic overhaul periods for major components of the PLUS are listed in the Overhaul Schedule (5-10-00).
All replacement times are listed in AIRWORTHINESS LIMITATIONS, CHAPTER 4, approved by the FAA and
are mandatory requirements.
2. Inspection Levels
There are several levels of inspection performed. These inspection levels, as defined, are used to identify and
clarify the depth of an inspection process.
A visual check is an observation to determine that an item is fulfilling or able to fulfill its intended purpose.
It does not require quantitative tolerances. It is a failure/damage finding task.
A general visual inspection is a visual examination of an interior or exterior area, installation or assembly
to detect obvious damage, failure or irregularity. This level of inspection is typically made from within
touching distance. A mirror may be necessary to enhance visual access to all exposed surfaces in the
inspection area. The inspection is made under normally available lighting conditions such as daylight,
hanger/shop lighting, flashlight or drop-light and may require removal or opening of access covers, panels
or doors. Stands, ladders or platforms may be required to gain proximity to the area being inspected.
A detailed visual inspection is an intensive visual examination of a specific article, installation or assembly
to detect damage, failure or irregularity. Available lighting is normally supplemented with a direct source
of good lighting at an intensity deemed appropriate by the individual performing the inspection. Inspection
aids such as mirrors, magnifying lenses, etc. may be used. Surface cleaning and elaborate access
procedures may be required.

As required by FAR Part 91 the aircraft must be the subject of a complete annual inspection each 12 calendar
months of operation.
National regulations may require a 100 Hour Inspection. Certain inspection items in the 100 hour inspection
sheets are marked with an asterisk *. These items are applicable when the aircraft is inspected in conformity
with the requirements of FAA Parts 43 and 91 only.
If national regulations do not require a 100 flight hour inspection, the owner or operator is then responsible for
complying with any national regulations. The inspection intervals are based on normal usage of the aircraft
under average environmental conditions. Aircraft operated in extremely humid tropics, or in exceptionally cold,
damp climates, salt-laden conditions may need more frequent inspections for wear, corrosion and lubrication.
Under these adverse conditions the hourly inspection should be done in compliance with the inspection
sheets at a more frequent interval until the owner or operator can set his own inspection interval based on
field experience.
The owner or operator is primarily responsible for maintaining the aircraft in an airworthy condition. This
includes compliance with airworthiness directives and any additional maintenance requirements from Chapter
4 and the time limits section of this chapter. It is further the responsibility of the owner or operator to make
sure that the aircraft is inspected in accordance with the inspection sheets.
2. Permissible Tolerances
All hourly inspection must be performed at hourly interval ± 10 hours. Annual inspections must be performed
annually ± 1 month.
If you do an inspection inside the permitted tolerance the planned inspection times do not shift, e.g:
The 100 hour inspection is due at 100, 200 and 300 hours etc. If you do the inspection at 90 hours, the next
inspection is still due at 200 hours (± 10 hours). If you do the next inspection at 210 hours then the following
inspection is still due at 300 hours (± 10 hours). The inspection intervals do not change.
If you do an inspection earlier and outside the given tolerance then the planned inspection times shift, e.g:
The 100 hour inspection is due at 100, 200 and 300 hours etc. If you do the second inspection earlier and
outside the given tolerance, e.g. at 160 hours, the inspection interval shifts. Because you did the 200 hour
inspection 40 hours earlier, the base interval will shift 40 hours. In this case the following inspections would be
due at 260 hours ± 10 hours, etc.
The same rules apply for the annual inspection tolerance, using the ± 1 month.
The owner or operator is responsible for complying with any national regulations.

3. Inspection Sheets
The 100 hour inspection and annual inspection sheets list the maintenance items for inspection and state the
level of inspection required. The sheets have been prepared to assist the owner or operator in meeting the
foregoing responsibilities. They include, together with the inspection requirements, cross references to the
maintenance procedures which are necessary to do the inspections.
The inspection sheets are not intended to be all-inclusive, for no such sheets can replace the good judgment
of a qualified mechanic in the performance of his duties. As the one primarily responsible for the airworthiness
of the aircraft, the owner or operator should select only qualified personnel to maintain the aircraft.
4. Inspection Guide-Lines
The inspection sheets can be copied and should be used for doing the inspections. Detailed information of
systems and sub-systems on the aircraft can be found in the relevant chapters of this maintenance manual,
Aircraft Maintenance Manual and the Engine Maintenance Manual. Reference should be made to the topics in
this manual. It is the responsibility of the owner or operator to make sure that mechanics inspecting the
aircraft have access to these documents as well as the inspection sheets.

Composite Oxygen Bottle Inspection – General
Luxfer recommends the use of three categories of damage in accordance with CGA C-6.2
(note that in some of the cases specified below, only Levels 1 and 3 are used).
Level 1 damage: is minor damage considered normal wear-and-tear and that has no
adverse effects on the integrity or safety of a cylinder. Cylinders with Level 1 damage can
continue in service.
Level 2 damage: is greater than Level 1, but less than Level 3. Level 2 damage can be
repaired and returned into service. See Section 12-10-01 page 801 for repair.
Level 3 damage: is sufficiently severe that the cylinder must be rejected. Level 3 damage
cannot be repaired.
Reference the Figure 5.1 below for the following bottle inspections.
Note an additional gel coat finish is applied on top of the glass fiber layer (Figure 5.1 item
5).

Composite Oxygen Bottle Inspection - Perform a DVI of the exterior of the bottle for the
following:
Abrasive Damage: Abrasion damage is caused by the wearing, grinding or rubbing away
of material by friction.
Level 1 damage: which consists of small abrasions to the outer gel coating or glass fiber
layer, will not require repair unless the area is large enough to cause unraveling of fibers.
Level 2 damage: is abrasion that may be repaired. This is where the outer glass fiber
layer has been abraded but the underlying carbon fiber has not been abraded. Pressure
test a cylinder after the repair and re-inspect the cylinder before filling.
Level 3 damage: is sufficiently severe that abrasion has passed through the outer glass
layer and into the underlying carbon fiber layers.

following:
Cut Damage: This type of damage consists of cuts caused by contact with sharp objects
that penetrate into the composite material, effectively reducing its thickness at the point of
contact. This damage is similar in some ways to abrasion damage.
Level 1 damage: Consists of cuts to the outer gel coating or light cuts in the outer glass
fiber layer.
Level 2 damage: Heavier cuts in the glass fiber layer that have not cut into the underlying
carbon fiber layers. Level 2 cuts can cause delamination and/or unraveling of the glass
fibers (see delamination). Pressure test cylinders after the repair and re-inspect before
filling.
Level 3 damage: Reject composite cylinders with cuts through the glass fiber layer and
into the underlying carbon fiber layers.

Impact Damage: Impact damage may appear as cracks in the resin, as delamination or
as cuts in the overwrap. All cylinders that show evidence of impact damage must be
visually inspected for evidence of indentation of the internal surface of the metal liner.
Two levels of impact damage are recognized: Level 1 and Level 3 (there is no Level 2).
Level 1 damage: Light damage, such as a small area where the fiberglass is frosted,
does not require repair.
Level 3 damage: The cylinder must be rejected if impact damage causes a large area of
frosting, delamination of fibers or other such readily noticeable structural damage. Reject
composite cylinders with any visual evidence of indentation on the internal surface of the
metal liner.

Delamination: Delamination is a separation of composite overwrap layers or strands. It
may also appear as a whitish patch, such as a blister or an air space beneath the surface.
Delamination is usually a result of an impact, cut or exposure to temperatures of more
than 200°F
Level 1 damage: Light damage, such as a small area where the fiberglass is frosted,
does not require repair.
Level 2 damage: If delamination is restricted to the glass fiber layer only and any defect
does not exceed a width of 2 inches (50 mm), the cylinder may be repaired and returned
to service.
Level 3 damage: Delamination damage greater than Level 2 requires the cylinder to be
rejected.

Composite Oxygen Bottle Inspection - Perform a DVI of the exterior of the bottle for the
following:
Heat Damage:
Level 1 damage: occurs when the surface of the clear gel coat, paint or composite is
soiled from smoke or other contaminants but is intact underneath with no evidence that
the resin has been burned. In this case, a cylinder can be returned to service after
cleaning.
Level 3 damage: Cylinders showing excessive heat damage must be rejected. Cylinders
known to have been left unattended in a fire and exhibiting any evidence of heat damage
must be rejected. Evidence of heat damage includes charring or melting of the composite
or any attachments, valve components, protective layers, stickers or paint. Evidence can
also include blistering of a protective layer. The composite would appear dark brown or
black in color and would remain unchanged when cleaned and evaluated, as noted
above. The original manufacturer’s label may be totally illegible due to the darkness of the
resin. Cylinders known to have been subjected to the direct action of fire (i.e., prolonged
impingement by flame) must be rejected. Evidence of fire damage might include signs of
actual burning. Fire damage could occur either in an isolated area of the cylinder surface
or over a wider area.

Composite Oxygen Bottle Inspection - Perform a DVI of the exterior of the bottle for the
following:
Structural Damage: A cylinder is rendered unserviceable if there is any evidence of
surface bulges or depressions, distorted valve connections or deformation of the
aluminum liner revealed by visual examination of the cylinder interior. In some cases,
there may be irregularities in the fiberglass overwrap or gel-coat finish; these are normal
and are not cause for rejection. Contact Luxfer if you are uncertain about how to
distinguish such normal conditions from actual damage.
Composite Oxygen Bottle Inspection - Perform a DVI of the exterior of the bottle for the
following:
Chemical Attack: Chemicals can dissolve, corrode, soften, remove
or ruin cylinder composite materials. They can also cause bubbling,
pitting or extreme dulling of the resin; cause deterioration of the resin
or protective paint layer; or create multiple fractures transverse to the
direction of the fiber. Sometimes solvents can cause the cylinder to
become sticky to the touch. Cylinders with evidence of such damage
must be rejected. Carbon fibers are far less susceptible to chemical
attack than glass fibers—but if a carbon composite cylinder has been
clearly damaged by chemicals, it must be rejected.
PLUS Oxygen System – Perform DVI of all oxygen lines fittings and connections for
general condition, cleanliness, lose connections or damage. Check oxygen bottle is firmly
attached. Verify by grasping the bottle at one end and applying force (about 5Lbs) in
alternating direction. Inspect attaching straps for cracks, tears or other damage.
WARNING!
Oil, grease or other lubricants, in contact with high pressure oxygen, can
create an extreme fire hazard and any such contact must be avoided. Do NOT
permit smoking or open flame of any kind near aircraft or PLUS while work is
performed on the oxygen system.
PLUS Oxygen Fillport – Perform a GVI to verify that the fill port threads are in good
condition, free of burrs, dirt or other foreign material.
PLUS Oxygen System Leak Check – Perform check detailed in Section 12-10-01 pg. 601.
Stretcher Seat Belts – Perform a DVI on lap belts and shoulder belts for fraying. Fraying
of the belt edge is allowed to 1/16 of an inch.

Stretcher – Perform a DVI all exterior surfaces for damage. No gouges, scratches, or
holes that penetrate through the structure are allowed. No damage is allowed within three
inches of the attach fittings, backrest attach, backrest loops or shoulder belts.
If the stretcher has a backrest, test its operation. Ensure that backrest can be raised
freely and will lock in position when handle is released.
Accessory Arch – Perform a DVI of the arch for cracks or bending. Visually inspect all
exposed fasteners for proper installation. Inspect all external components for security of
attachment. For example grasp the arch and apply approximately 2 lbs of force in several
directions. There should be no significant movement.

(3) Mix a sufficient amount of two-part epoxy resin according to the resin manufacturer’s instructions.
Epoxy resin sets up quickly, so it is important to apply it without delay after it has been mixed. Apply
a sufficient amount of the epoxy resin to the damaged area, using the applicator to thoroughly coat
and burnish down any loose fibers. Completely fill the damaged area with resin.
(4) Where additional protection is required, apply a slightly oversized piece of fiberglass surface veil
over the damaged area. Apply a thin layer of resin over the veil, making sure that the veil and
damaged area are completely covered.
(5) Where a superior surface finish is required, use shrink tape. Affix a piece of unidirectional shrink
tape, approximately 6 inches (150mm) longer than the damaged area, with outer surface of tape
facing downwards, over the damage with ordinary adhesive tape. Apply heat to the tape with a hot
air dryer to cause shrinkage. Peel off the tape after the epoxy resin has fully cured.
(6) Allow the epoxy resin to set, typically 5 to 10 minutes. Then move the cylinder to a protected
location and leave it undisturbed until the epoxy resin is fully cured in accordance with the resin
manufacturer’s guidelines. Apply a desired finish to the repair. Pressure test the cylinder before
returning it to service.

Oxygen System - This system includes a maximum of one aluminum or two composite DOT-approved oxygen
bottles, per PLUS, with a maximum pressure of 2,200 PSI (15,168 KPa) at 70°F. These bottles have a slow
opening/closing shut-off valve at the head of the bottle accessible by the flight crew. Opening the shut-off valve on
the oxygen bottle charges the oxygen system shown in Figure 25.7.
The system also includes a pressure regulator (reference Figure 25.13) which reduces the high-pressure supply
from the oxygen tanks to a safe usable pressure to be supplied to the non-ambulatory occupant of the PLUS
system.
A one way filler valve also referred to as a fill port (reference Figure 25.14) is installed on the inboard side of the
PLUS system behind one of the storage compartment doors (reference Figure 25.5). This filler valve provides a
means to fill the oxygen supply tanks when they have been depleted. When two bottles are installed both bottles
are tied together on the high pressure side by way of multiple 3 way fittings. Filling the bottles is done
simultaneously, if both bottles are open when filling is performed. The pressure displayed on the oxygen gauge is
the pressure in the line; therefore the full mark is no different for a single or dual oxygen bottle installation.
Delivery of oxygen to the patient is done by interfacing with the supply outlets located on the inboard side outlet
panel (reference Figure 25.8). These outlets operate as a check valve. When a supplementary supply hose is
connected to the outlet, supply is started.

Electrical System – The forward PLUS installed on the right hand side of the aircraft contains a static inverter
(Reference Figure 25.15). The function of the static inverter is to convert the aircraft’s 28VDC power, supplied by
the aircraft generators, to 115V AC or 230V AC to power auxiliary medical equipment.
A system of pumps can also be installed including an air and vacuum pump. These systems are powered directly
from the aircrafts 28VDC and controlled at the PLUS unit by way of an on/off control switch located on the outlet
panel (reference Figure 25.8). The purpose of these systems is to provide a means for an attendant to clear
patient airways and for other medical functions. Delivery of air and suction to the patient is done by interfacing
with the supply outlets located on the inboard side outlet panel (reference Figure 25.8). These outlets operate as
a check valve. When a supplementary supply hose is connected to the outlet, supply is started.
A connector is supplied on the outboard side of the PLUS to interface with the aircrafts electrical system
(reference Figure 25.9)
