Flying again!
Well Known Member
Ok, so during my current toil change I replaced leaking seals/O-rings in 4 pushrod shrouds. When I ran the engine after I saw an oil leak from my Hartzell governor. After cleaning and verifying it was leaking from the gasket that splits the governor body I sent it to Quality Aircraft Accesories in Tulsa (great service, sent UPS ground on a Friday, they called the following Monday to tell me what they found, and on it was my porch on Tuesday when I got home from work!). I choose to exchange for a rebuilt one due to all the issues they found with my governor.
I installed it and ops checked it on the ground. Waiting for good weather to test it in flight and adjust the rpm stop as needed. I am having a local A&P check it and sign it off in the log book. The question is, who has to sign off the entry in the log book on an experimental. I am not the builder so do not have the repairmans certificate. Could I have signed off on the work?
Thanks, still learning!
