Rotax Enhanced Annual and Service Class Oct. 14th & 15th or Nov. 11th & 12th, 2023

Would successful completion of this class allow me to do my own CTLSi annual exams?

Hi Scott,

If you are a licensed  mechanic  like an A&P or LSRM-A  then yes. If not you'd have to get that license  or if you have an experimental then you'd  have to take the 2 day course for that FAA license. Many people take the course so they can do the allowed work in Part 43 by the owner and many who may never work on their plane want the know what's  right or wrong g when someone else does the work.

 Roger teaches a course that is not authorised by Rotax if that is the question, it is not an iRMT program from Rotax.  He is correct that you would need some FAA approval to sign off your condition inspection.

Cheers

Hi Scott,

RW is correct. The FAA approval for annuals would be for an A&P, Light Sport Repairman license or the two day FAA approvaed course for experimental owners. Engine licensing is not specifically needed, but the FAA does want some engine training. Experimental light sport unlicensed owners can do there own maint. between annuals. You do not need an approved specialty / certified engine class to do your maint. or annuals, but The FAA says you either need some similar experience or some training.

i.e. An A&P that has done oil changes on a Lycoming doesn't  have to take a Rotax specific class to do an oil change. Even though  I think Rotax and Lycoming are different the FAA says that oil changes are similar.

Course briefing;

This is not a certified Rotax instructed class. This course covers more info than the standard class and is mostly all hands on with a live engine and we do an annual right from the Rotax checklist, line by line plus we included several things like how to set prop pitch  and common parts replacement that other classes don't, like what is included in the Rotax 5 year rubber change. We spend most of the two days turning wrenches and answering all your questions.  Students are involved in a real time carb sync on the 912UL & ULS plus working on a 912iS doing diagnostics with a computer / dongle and downloading  logs. We only except 10 students because everyone is turning wrenchs and performing the maint.

It's all the hands on and attention to detail for your normal everyday maint. that we also target and that previous students like. We teach mechanics and owners and 100% of all previous participants love it.

p.s.  I was trained by Rotax Wizard over the years. He's extremely  knowledgeable about Rotax and folks here should listen to him. 

Hugs RW. ?
