Default Owner's right to maintenance records?

Hi All,

Does the owner of an N registered aircraft have the right to keep all
the maintenance records?

Presently, records are kept by maintenance organisations and these are
not normally given to the aircraft owner. So, over the years, bits end
up in different places and as maintenance firms go out of business,
these get lost.

I am currently putting everything together in one place.

I know that under G-reg (which is where the aircraft presently is) I
do have that right because the maintenance records form a part of the
aircraft logbooks. It's the FAA rules I am not sure about.

Moreover, can the maintenance organisation say that they must keep a
copy, and charge me (whatever they like) for making a copy?

Thank you for any feedback.


Peter.

Hmmmm. British spellings. British address. British rules. If I were a
Brit I'd want all my records together.
