I learned a lot about Cessna maintenance seminar that I attended.
Biggest takeaway: lubrication is key. Shockingly, it's not required for annual inspections! Which means lots of parts probably aren't getting lubed, even though mechanics say they do it. The seminar showed me how unlikely that is, given how many lubrication points there are on a Cessna, and how hard some are to access.
Does Cessna have a lubrication guide? A schedule and the right lubricants for each part would be really useful. Since proper lubrication saves money, it would be a valuable resource for us owners.
