How much can I do as the buyer of an experimental? I've heard conflicting reports from people I'd have thought would know. I had been under the impression that I could do anything other than the Annual/Condition Inspection but have gotten some conflicting opinions from local EAA'ers that A+P supervision and sign offs are required. I 'think' they're confusing LSA rules with experimental but thought I'd check here before I get in trouble with the FAA.
What I had done was install a new oil temp probe and other simple stuff not that it matters much. I know it's outside the oil change and bearing lube you can do as a cerified aircraft owner but I thought I had more freedom as owner of experimental??
I have not flown yet so if a sign off or A+P re-do is necessary there's time to fix the legality if needed (in case the FAA is reading this)![Big grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
