My new Catto prop arrived yesterday so I'm going to try and get the FAA related stuff done today and tomorrow.
My operating limitation say that I need concurrence with local FSDO on test area, hours, etc.
I'm trying to figure out if I need to do an 8130-6
My limitations say:
"If the major change includes installing a different make and model of engine or propeller, the aircraft owner must fill out a revised 8130-6 to update....."
Use of the word "and" implies that both make & model must change to require the form. I'm only changing the "model", really just the pitch & dia.
Anyway, my conclusion is that based on my operating limitations I do not need the form. It may be a technicality, but "and" and "or" mean different things.
Anyone have any knowledge or insight on this?
Also, anyone do their paperwork though the SJC FSDO and know specifically who I should be talking to there?
Help appreciated!
