Hi Ernesto,

They should be for several reasons.

Here in the blog section are two articles that may help you. There are several problems with hose that can not be inspected for or seen with the eyes. It's a better safe than sorry mind set since you can't pull over to the side of the road. I do about 15-18 hose changes a year on all kinds of Rotax 912 powered aircraft.
