JLS Aviation operates under the guidelines of several
document that describe our operational and maintenance procedures.
The first of these is the Operations SOP. It Is the governing document
for day to day operations and provides general guidelines for Flight
School operations. It does not replace FAA regulations of operations
consistent with the Aeronautical Information Manual.

|
The current Operations
SOP is dated 15 February 2009 and is generally reviewed and updated annually,
There is also a requirement to take a short quiz on the SOP at least
every two years, which can be downloaded her as the SOP
Quiz. Suggestions for additions, deletions or changes may be
forwarded using the JLSAVIATION@COX.NET
address.

Operations and
Maintenance SOP's are available for downloading.

Additionally, the Flight School uses a Maintenance
SOP that outlines the general procedures for reviewing maintenance
documents, reporting items needing repair and determining the airworthiness
status of the aircraft. The current maintenance SOP is dated 27 November
2007 and is also reviewed annually.

The flight schools uses aircraft checklists for each
aircraft and are tailored for each one.
The check lists currently in use are for a C172, C172M, C152 and
Piper Arrow.
These are the same check lists that are used in the aircraft. Any
discrepancies or suggestions should be directed to the owner or Chief
Instructor
|
|
Also available are
the aircraft questionnaires for the C172, C152 and Piper Arrow.
Each pilot must complete a questionnaire for each aircraft type. Pilots
should download the questionnaire and have it completed for the
instructor prior to the check ride.

Weight and balance information is also available for several
aircraft. Data for both C172M aircraft
(N61701 and N61954), the C172N (N1464E and
N4789G), C152, as
well as the Piper
Arrow is contained on the links above. Pilots are cautioned to
consult the Aircraft Flight Manual specific for each aircraft as the only
official source for weight and balance information. The links above may
serve to assist in flight planning.
The Flight School also provides other documents that may be
helpful, including a Density
Altitude Chart and an Aircraft
Performance Chart.
