CHAPTER 4. Powerplants
The powerplant system is composed of the engine, gearbox,
and propeller. It is a key component of a WSC aircraft and
should be maintained according to both the engine and
airframe manufacturer recommendations.
Prefl ight information, along with maintenance schedules
and procedures, can be found in the pilot’s operating
handbook (POH) for Special Light-Sport Aircraft (S-LSA),
and/or maintenance references from the manufacturers.
Engine inspections and maintenance must be performed and
documented in a logbook. A pilot should review this logbook
before fl ying an unfamiliar aircraft.
