Default Help locating an A&P in Central West Virginia

Can anyone help with locating an A&P in central West Virginia?? The RV-6A has not been annualed in approximately 7-8 years. It has been started and lubricated regularly though. I would really appreciate any help you could give. Is it true that I will not need an IA since it is experimental homebuilt? I would prefer to find a A&P that is familiar with RV's. Any ideas??

It IS true that you don't need an IA; I promise!
I've been an A&P for 40 years. I've been doing experimental amateur-built aircraft for over 30 years. I've been a DAR, certificating experimental and light-sport aircraft for over 13 years.

Default Where is it at?

I am in East Tennessee. Its not too far a flight for a lot of places in WV.

I'm an A&P/IA. Been very involved with building RV-6/7/9, as well as numerous other experimental and certified aircraft for 20 years.

the plane is located in Summersville, West Virginia (KSXL) I think I have found someone to help, they are out of Buchanon. I've made a commitment so far but I'll let you know how it's going.
