Narrative:

On a regular scheduled flight from denver, co, to casper, wyoming, and to rapid city, sd. I looked in the maintenance log of the aircraft, and realized that I had overflew the plane with 10.3 hours. The aircraft is owned by the company whom I work for. I fly 5 days a week on a regular scheduled cargo run that ends in rapid city, sd. The trip is then flown the same way back, after a 3 hour stop in rapid city, however, I discovered that the aircraft was overdue by 10.3 hours. Maintenance was to be done by 7111.2 hobbs time, and I now found hobbs time to be 7121.5, a difference of 10.3 hours. I realized that I had failed to properly check the maintenance log before this morning's flight! The maintenance department in my company obtained a ferry permit and the aircraft was subsequently ferried to the company's main base for maintenance.
