Post-MX wrecks
Every aircraft owner should laminate and post page 6 from your “First Flight out of Maintenance: Don’t Get Bit” (September 2024 Aviation Consumer) everywhere. I believe in what you wrote and that there is a God, or else I would be dead. I won’t go into my many “it could have been” stories. There are just three rules that I think should be added to your list.
First, if the tech fixed three items, one of them will try to kill you. Second, I strongly reinforce the rule that you never take the first flight out of maintenance with a passenger. My wife did not understand this, but it saved us two times. Third, find a shop that you trust and show the tech working on the plane pictures of your family, and never ever rush him or her. I flew Mooneys and Aerostars, so maybe my experiences were an exception.
