Huh? The way I read that AD, it has nothing to do with oil changes. The
repetitive inspection portion of it will be a PITA, which states : At every engine oil change or within every 50 hours of engine run time, whichever occurs first, repeat the inspection and remedial steps specified in paragraphs (f) through (h)(9) of this AD. It in no way makes oil changes by the owner prohibited. If you have other info, please post it. Jim "Robert M. Gary" wrote in message ... AD 2008-06-51 prohibits injected (mostly Lycoming) aircraft owners from changing their own oil (really makes the plane unairworthy after an oil change until you get an A&P sign off). Talking to AOPA about this I really don't get the impression that they think this is very important. I would encourage everyone to send a quick email to AOPA and let them know that the FAA needs to find another way to do this AD other than restricting oil changes. -Robert |

There for when you go out to your plane to change the oil you can no longer fly it and must wait to schedule an A&P to sign the AD. Draining the oil makes the plane unairworthy. -Robert |
