Narrative:

After one of my colleagues reviewed the records of the operator regarding one of the aircraft I fly; I was informed by said colleague that that helicopter was flown past the 100 hour limit since the last maintenance; on one occasion. I was also informed that the pilot that flew past the 100 hour mark was me. I took off before the 100 hour inspection was due; but I landed 0.[X] hrs after. Maintenance was performed after said flight. I did not pay enough attention to the maintenance status of the aircraft; and maintenance is often performed right before it is due. As a result of that; I was not aware that the helicopter was almost due to the 100 hours inspection; although I fly the aircraft often and I inspect the logbooks frequently; also for teaching purposes. I was complacent with knowing that the aircraft is properly maintained and that there are indicators of impending maintenance in the aircraft's records. Together with the maintenance personnel; the other pilots and the chief pilot; it was decided that the aircraft would receive maintenance some hours prior to being due; leaving room for errors in scheduling the flights. A new maintenance status sheet will be added to the aircraft operator book; more clear and with a better and simpler layout than the older; so that pilots can easily consult it prior to every flight. The white board in the operator's office with the status of all aircraft will be kept up to date at all times. I will also make sure that I research more carefully the airworthiness status of the aircraft; whether it is a new one to me or one that I fly often.
