The FAA is a monopoly. It's not surprising that we are being very poorly
served by them. The pilots with 'issues' with their medicals are worst
off.
I have found one has to expect incompetence at every step, and do their
jobs for them in advance. Once the inspection is done read over the
operating limitations very carefully--it took the feds three times to
get mine right. Critical areas they are likely to screw up are allowed
aerobatics maneuvers, IFR, and flight over densely populated
areas/airways.
The good news for us is that once you complete your fly-off, and the op
limitations are correct, at least with regard to the aircraft, we are
free from federal meddling forever!
370 hrs on my RV8--what a machine!

back in April, got it back late May with a letter, we listed the registration
type as "partnership", but for our title, called each other "co-owner". The letter
said that if it's a partnership, we must call ourselves "partners"....if
we're calling ourselves "co-owners", we must list the registration as "co-ownership".
Mailed it back out with the corrections in late May.

June 1, 2004, the registration applicant must print or type their name
under their signature". Our registration was stamped as received by the feds
June 2nd, one day after the new rule took effect, there was no warning that this
would happen.
