I know when I was at college studying flight the FAA, or might have been college policy, required inspections every 100 hours I think it was. Now it
has been about 6 years since I last flew in RL so I don't remember I could look it up in the regs if I can find that book. If you were 2 hours out
from the inspection and went up for a 3 hour flight you were actually flying the plane illegaly. That's why the school tended to ground the planes at
around 95 hours and send them over to maintnace as most student flights where no longer then 2 hours this avoided any possible accidents of going over
the the 100 hour inspection.
