Aeronut Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 The challenge for visitors to the Army Flying museum is to find the serial number (ZE410) painted on the fuselage of AE-335. Its not easy as it is in dark grey on a background of a slightly lighter grey! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose that for safe operations and maintenance you want to know how many hours the airframe and the engine have logged so far and when they have to be inspected or exchanged. For the Puma, the aircraft had a full rebuild and the rotables were all replaced. If I recall correctly, the Puma had no set airframe fatigue life limit. This was probably due to the design of the main structural items, and the replacement of most of these "on condition" at Major.
