Who may perform preventive maintenance on an aircraft and approve it for return to service? 1. Student or Recreational pilot. 2. Private or Commercial pilot. 3. None of the above.
A
1.
B
2.✓ Correct Answer
C
Neither 1 or 2.
Explanation
14 CFR 43.3(g) lets a pilot certificate holder perform preventive maintenance on an aircraft he or she owns or operates (not used under Parts 121, 129 or 135), but 43.7(f) allows only a person holding at least a private pilot certificate to approve it for return to service. So a private or commercial pilot can do both; student and recreational pilots cannot approve the work.
