Airworthiness Day

Airworthiness Day

TLDR

  • Received airworthiness certificate for N532SL

Details

It’s finally an airplane!

Today was the scheduled appointment for my DAR to come visit/inspect the build.

My DAR was Larrie Ricca. He is super nice and made the entire process painless.

We met early in the morning, and walking through the airplane. He pointed out it might be a good idea to add a lanyard on the fuel cap so it doesn’t get lost. Makes sense.

Besides the walkaround, Larrie went through the operation limitations with me line by line on the airworthiness certificate.

After a 4 hour visit, we shook hands and he issued the special airworthiness certificate for N532SL.

After 3 years of building, it’s now offically an airplane!
