This SAS/417 Aircraft Inspection Checklist supports rigorous internal audits for aviation operations. It guides auditors through regulatory compliance with SA CAA and ANAC requirements, verification of maintenance records and work packs, component status and ADs, and documentation such as certificates of airworthiness, MEL, AOC, and logbooks. It covers personnel qualifications and training, safety and quality assurance processes, and facility and equipment standards including calibration. Aircraft-focused checks include safety equipment (ELT, FDR, life vests, fire extinguishers), external airframe condition, landing gear, cockpit, cabin, and cargo areas. Designed for satellite or line stations, it helps ensure airworthiness, safety, and operational consistency.
