CHAPTER 1

Section 01-00-00 Introduction

These are accepted Instructions for Continued Airworthiness for modifications performed in

accordance with Eurocopter EC130 B4 Garmin G500H Flight Display System Installation STC. All

references to the G500H in this document will refer to the Garmin G500H Flight Display System

Installation and other related components specified in these Instructions for Continued

Airworthiness (ICA). A STC permission letter and Instructions for Continued Airworthiness (ICA)

should be supplied to the owner/operator of the STC at the time of completion. Subsequent

accepted changes to the ICA will be distributed to owners and operators of the STC.

This Instructions for Continued Airworthiness is intended to supplement the Model EC130 B4

rotorcraft maintenance manuals provided by Eurocopter. The information, procedures,

requirements, and limitations contained in this Instructions for Continued Airworthiness for this

type design change supersedes the information, procedures, requirements, and limitations

contained in the rotorcraft’s maintenance manual when the type design change is installed on

the Type Certificate Holder’s rotorcraft.

CHAPTER 4

Section 04-00-00 Airworthiness Limitations

There are no additional Airworthiness Limitations as defined in 14 CFR Part 27, Appendix A.

A27.4 that result from this modification. The Airworthiness Limitations section is FAA approved

and specifies inspections and other maintenance required under 14 CFR §§ 43.16 and 91.403

of the Federal Aviation Regulations unless an alternative program has been FAA approved.

CHAPTER 5

Section 05-00-00 Continued Airworthiness Inspections

1. General

This chapter contains time limit intervals for the Component Overhaul Schedule and Scheduled

Inspections for the G500H Installation. This chapter is to be added to the approved scheduled

inspection for the rotorcraft.

2. Component Overhaul Schedule

The system does not require overhaul at a specific time period. Power on self-test and

continuous BIT will monitor the health of the G500H system. If any LRU indicates an internal

failure, the unit may be removed and replaced.

3. Scheduled Inspections Overview

The G500H Installation requires a 90 Day Inspection that must be performed 90 days after

installation and then afterwards within 90 days of the last G500H Installation 90 day inspection.

The 90 Day Inspection requirements are specified in Table 5-01.

The G500H Installation requires an Annual Inspection that must be performed within 1 year (12

months) of initial installation and then afterwards within 1 year (12 months) of the last G500H

Installation annual inspection. The annual inspection requirements are specified in Table 5-02.

The G500H Installation requires a 5 Year Inspection that must be performed within 60 months

of initial installation and then afterwards within 60 months of the last G500H Installation

inspection. The 5 Year Inspection requirements are specified in Table 5-03.

The G500H Installation requires a 10 Year/2000 Flight Hours Inspection that must be performed

within 120 months or 2000 flight hours, whichever occurs first, of initial installation and then

afterwards within 120 months or 2000 flight hours, whichever occurs first, of the last G500H

Installation 10 year/2000 flight inspections. The 10 Year/2000 Flight Hour Inspection

requirements are specified in Table 5-04.

4. Special Inspection Practices

Conditions may arise from incidents or accidents that may warrant additional inspection

requirements. A Special Inspection is required if the aircraft is involved in a hard landing or is

subjected to total immersion in water. If either of these conditions occurs, the G500H

Installation must be inspected using the same procedures called out in the Annual Inspection

Procedures in Table 5-02.

05-00-00

Instructions for Continued Airworthiness 190-01527-15 Rev 1

for the Garmin G500H Installation in Eurocopter EC130 Page 7 of 82

The G500H Installation has a Post-Lightning Strike Inspection that must be performed in the

event of a suspected or actual lightning strike to the aircraft. The Post-Lightning Strike

Inspection requirements are specified in Table 5-05.

5. Definitions and Acronyms

The following is short descriptions of words and terms used in the procedures for the required

scheduled inspections.

• Examine – Look carefully to find the condition of the component. Find how that condition

is related to a specific standard.

• Condition – The state of an item or component compared to a known standard.

• Standard – A specified rule or measure that is used to find the condition of a component.

• Damage – Physical deterioration of a component.

• Inspection – A procedure that includes checking, inspecting, and examining a system or

component.

• Scheduled Inspection – An inspection procedure that must occur at a specified calendar

interval or at specified operational time intervals. Scheduled Inspections are required to

help ensure the rotorcraft stays airworthy.

• Maintenance – The servicing and / or repair of a rotorcraft, a system, or a component that

keeps it serviceable.

• Security – Term used for inspection of hardware and components to make sure they are

properly attached and tightened.

Section 05-20-10 Continued Airworthiness Scheduled Inspections

1. General

This section contains requirements for scheduled inspections. Also included is a list of special

tools required to perform the scheduled inspections. If any part of the installation appears to

be functioning improperly, consult the troubleshooting guide. If a major component is

damaged or continues to malfunction, the component in question should be returned to the

manufacturer for replacement.

2. Scheduled Inspection Program

The G500H Installation requires scheduled inspections in order to maintain continued

airworthiness. Every effort should be made to perform the inspections with the aircraft placed

in a clean well lit environment. There are four different scheduled inspections required for the

G500H Installation.

a) 90 Day Inspection

The 90 day inspection is required to be performed every 90 day period of calendar elapsed

time, regardless of hours of operation. Inspection Table 5-01 the requirements of the 90 day

inspection.

b) 1 Year (Annual) Inspection

The 1 year (annual) inspection is required to be performed every 1 year period of calendar

elapsed time, regardless of hours of operation. Inspection Table 5-02 the requirements of the

1 year (annual) inspection.

c) 5 Year Inspection

The 5 year inspection is required to be performed every 5 year period of calendar elapsed

time, regardless of hours of operation. Inspection Table 5-03 the requirements of the 5 year

inspection

d) 10 Year / 2000 Flight Hours

The 10 year /2000 Flight Hour inspection is required to be performed at a 10 year period of

calendar elapsed time, or at 2000 flight hours of operation, whichever occurs first. Inspection

Table 5-04 specifies the requirements of the 10 year/2000 flight hour inspection.

3. Tools and Special Tools for Scheduled Inspection

Although not necessarily considered special tools, the adjustable ball swivel mirror and bright

flashlight and / or drop light are standard requirements for doing inspections. These items

should be used freely and frequently to enhance inspection quality and help ensure

05-20-10
