What
is a Video Borescope and why have this inspection carried out?
A
Video Borescope Inspection carried out by Remote Visual Inspections is a full
health check of the singularly most expensive component attached to your
aircraft (The Engine). This inspection highlights the visible defects ensuring
your asset is in a condition worthy of sale, lease or continued service.
We
carry out these inspections according to your requirements but always under the
strict guidance and limits laid down in the relevant maintenance manual of the
aircraft/engine type being inspected.
Our main asset is our impartiality, we are totally independent and are not
swayed by the commercial pressures to "keep the engine on wing at all
costs" or equally "pull the engine and pass on the costs to you!!".
If after our inspection the engine is within the limits of the maintenance manual we will
issue the industry recognized certificate, an EASA Form 1 certifying your engine's
serviceability.
The
video recording (DVD) provides a comprehensive record of the engine gas path at a fixed
point in time. Much
of our work in this field has been for Leasing Companies, Airlines and
Maintenance Organizations performing pre-purchase, lease return and scheduled or
non scheduled maintenance inspections.
