I'm maybe 3 weeks away from being ready for final inspection and have been spending some time getting all the paperwork in order.
I've taken over a thousand pictures during the build and have about 30 pages of log entries but honestly I did not detail every single thing I did and often my entries were very general in nature such as "today I bled the brakes, inspected the cockpit, blah, blah, blah" that sort of thing. I did however check-off every item in the instruction manual and made notes when I deviated. I also signed and dated every page. My thought was to include the manual as an appendix to the more general stuff I wrote along the way. Thoughts on this?
I'll print all the pictures out as well but many are incorporated into the general log already. What I don't have is an abundance of pictures with me in the shot (I was the one taking the photo). I probably have 30 or so with me in them. Any issues with this? What questions have you been asked by the inspector to prove you in fact built your plane?
I know my wife and kids would happily explain to him how much time I spent doing so![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Thanks!
