Pietenpol-List: Good Advice from the April 2015 issue of Kitplanes
Original Posted By: "Gary Boothe"
In the April 2015 issue of Kitplanes in the "Ask the DAR" section, the writer suggeststhat all pilots of aircraft utilizing the NX markings without the word"experimental" on the aircraft carry a copy of CFR_45.22b to show any FAA inspectorwho questions them on it.In case anyone needs/wants a copy, I have attached a copy below. I reduced thefont to get it all on one page. I plan on doing just that and using the NX markingson my Pietenpol. It sounds like a good practice to me, since it comes froma DAR.Just thought I would save forum members the time of looking for it.--------Semper Fi,Terry HandAthens, GARead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ttachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/cfr_ ... __________

Thanks, Terry. I have NX markings without "experimental", and the FAAinspector was ambivalent about that. Sooner or later I'll run into one whoisn't...Gary BootheNX308MB-----Original Message-----

Terry and Gary and others,I just got my Airworthiness inspection a couple of weeks ago. I went through thesame discussion with the DAR and the FAA. I have X in the number and dont haveexperimental on the airplane. Having a copy of the FAR in the airplane is justa good idea. I have one mine. The only problem is adjusting the weight and balance for the paperwork ;0)Jack> On Mar 5, 2015, at 11:49 AM, Gary Boothe wrote:> > > Thanks, Terry.

That's exactly what I did. I didn't have a DAR, but an inspector from theFSDO, whom I thought should know the regs. Just in case I carried a copy ofthe FARs with that one highlighted. Good thing I did. When he challengedme, I just showed him the book and he grunted and said "learn something newevery day".Jack PhillipsNX899JPSmith Mountain Lake, Virginia(Where yesterday it was 61 degrees and today is snowing.

I don't know how adding dihedral could irritate the purists. It says to add someto the three piece wing right in the 'official' manual.*SNAP* The three piece wing must not be pure either.
