If you decide to go with a airmaster prop. I have a 75" with whirwind blades 30 hrs. on it. For 6,000. Good luck on your build look forward to following.

Like others, I dated and signed my build log and took a bunch of pictures. I made it available but my DAR didn't really look at it. I never thought much about it, but I didn't need the repairman's certificate.

Thanks Phil. Does anyone get the faa inspectors or whatever they are called out? It seams everyone uses DARs.

[Shadowrider]

A DAR is not a FAA employee but a contractor. You can use a FAA inspector, they dont cost but my local fsdo told me its a 8-10 month wait. That is why most use a DAR.

Thanks John.

Rained most of the day today so I got to work all afternoon on the plane. Sure don't have much to show for it. Reamed on the fuselage and finished the control sticks apparatus and mounted. Now I have to take it off and redo due to binding.
