Aircraft Engine Technical Records Review
A focused review of engine technical records for piston and selected turbine EASA aircraft — logbook continuity, TSN/TSO, overhaul and shop-visit evidence, AD and SB status, LLP traceability, calendar limits and supporting release documentation — performed strictly on the records provided. Engine exposure is often the single largest financial risk in a used aircraft transaction; this review puts that exposure in writing before the deal closes.
What this service covers
We reconstruct the engine history from the available logbooks and shop documentation, compare it against manufacturer limits and AMP/maintenance programme requirements, and flag any items that appear unclear, due, overdue or unsupported by documentation.
Who this service is for
- Buyers worried about engine exposure before purchase
- Owners preparing an aircraft for sale, lease or export
- Flight schools and operators evaluating fleet engines
- CAMO / CAO organisations taking over engine continuing airworthiness
- Brokers needing an engine-only technical-records opinion
Documents normally reviewed
- Engine logbook(s) and continuity entries
- TSN / TSO and time-in-service records
- Overhaul and shop-visit work packs (where available)
- Engine AD and SB status with supporting evidence
- LLP and life-limited rotating-component traceability
- Calendar-limit items (e.g. fuel system, hoses, ignition components)
- EASA Form 1 / FAA 8130-3 for installed engine parts (where applicable)
- Engine trend monitoring or oil-analysis history (where applicable)
Typical findings
- Overhaul claimed in logbook without supporting work-pack evidence
- TSO or TSN values that do not reconcile across documents
- LLP items without traceability back to original release
- Calendar-limited items (e.g. hose changes) past due dates
- Engine AD or SB items with unclear or missing compliance evidence
- Replacement accessories installed without EASA Form 1 / 8130-3

- Engine history reconstruction summary based on records provided
- TSN/TSO and calendar-limit observations
- AD/SB and LLP traceability observations

Important limitation
This service is an independent technical-records review based on the documentation provided by the client. Findings reflect only the records made available for review and any supporting evidence not provided is recorded as a gap. This review does not replace a physical aircraft inspection, an Airworthiness Review Certificate (ARC), CAMO/CAO approval, a maintenance release, legal due diligence, or any form of formal airworthiness certification. We do not certify, approve, release or guarantee the airworthiness of any aircraft.
