With limited exceptions, only a certified mechanic holding an inspection authorization (IA) can perform an annual inspection in accordance with 14 CFR 91.409(a)(1). Thus, unless the owner-pilot also holds an IA, he or she is not permitted to assist with the inspection function of an annual.
Can an A&P do an annual inspection?
An airframe and powerplant mechanic (A&P) cannot perform or sign off an annual inspection unless that person also holds an Inspection Authorization (IA). If the aircraft is not a U.S. registered aircraft, then the person performing the inspection would have to meet the requirements of the country of registration.
You will need to present a filled out FAA Form 8610-1, Mechanic’s Application for Inspection Authorization and provide proof of identification. During the meeting, the ASI will interview you in order to verify that you meet the requirements for the authorization.
