Final Approach
Is it standard practice or requirement to check the Magnetos during the annual inspection? And to what extent?
Just check for proper external timing?
Pull each mag and check the interior condition and timing?
Annual Inspection in February.
Right Mag failed today after flying 3 hours yesterday and on average about 5 hours each weekend since the Annual Inspection.
Mech pulled the mag, internal examination, points are seriously corroded.
Perfectly good flying day lost while parts are gathered.
Check ride scheduled for Monday, lost.
I'm beginning to think I got an incomplete Inspection?
