A record entry describing a repair to a buckled spar using a figure from the structural repair manual would be documented on which form?

• A. FAA Form 337
• B. FAA Form 91
• C. Maintenance Logbook Page
• D. Aircraft Registration Certificate

Answer: (A)

Major structural repairs require an official FAA record, and that is what FAA Form 337 provides. A buckled spar is a significant airframe repair, not just routine maintenance, so describing the repair and referencing the figure from the structural repair manual on this form ensures the work is documented to FAA standards. The form captures what was repaired, how it was done (via the SRM figure), which components were affected, and it is signed off by the mechanic and the inspecting authority, with copies kept in the aircraft records. Maintenance logbook entries cover routine maintenance and minor repairs, not major structural changes, and the Aircraft Registration Certificate is simply proof of registration and not a repair record.
