Steve,
You can buy all these logbooks from Sporty's at minimal cost. The examiners
like to see printed and handwritten entries.
Regards,
Leroy

Hey guys,
I'm trying to get all of my paperwork together for my airworthiness
inspection. If you have an electronic copy of the maintenance logbooks
(airframe, engine, prop) I would appreciate a copy of it.
Thanks,
Steve

Steve,
I've attached a photo of how I performed this test. My drive way has a
nice slope to it. I then ran the nose wheel up a ramp. This gave me a
angle close to the stall angle or climb out angle. I then blocked the
mains and tied the tail to my truck. The airplane was pointed away from
my neighbor's houses. The header tank only had about 1/2 gallon of
fuel, so the fuel pump was well above the fuel level. The test was run
with only the motor's mechanical fuel pump.
Also you had asked for electronic copies of maintenance, motor, and prop
logs. My DAR said all I needed was a maintenance log. You have to have
an entry that you've inspected the aircraft and that it meets the FAA
requirements. Not sure about the exact wording, maintenance log is at
the airport. I had used wording that I got from Kitplanes magazine, but
my DAR didn't like it, so he told me what to write and we made the log
entry during the inspection. It is a good idea to contact the DAR ahead
of time and work all of this out before hand.

Nice looking plane. What did you use to polish the aluminum?
