I agree. My OP limits specify slightly different wording. "Upon Completion of phase 1 testing, compliance with 91.319(b) must be recorded in the maintenance records. The following or similar statement must be recorded in the maintenance records:Make sure you check the operating limitations of your specific aircraft. The verbiage for the phase 1 sign-off has changed slightly over the various policy revisions, so make sure what you write in your aircraft records matches what is actually in your operating limitations. Don't take the word of another builder or go by something you saw on the web. Check YOUR operating limitations and proceed as directed therein.
Our RV 14A is about two years into flying and we'd like to reenter Phase 1 to do some aerobatics. How do we get back into Phase 1?
Thanks,

What is the correct logbook wording after completing Phase 1 and Phase 2 testing? Looking to purchase a RV12 and want to make sure it is entered correctly. Thanks
I may be "out in left field" here, but are you purchasing a -12 that is/was an ELSA? or an EAB? I'm working from a hazy memory here...Is there a "Phase 2" test period for an ELSA? If an EAB, you'll want to be cautious or a little more picky about what mods or deviations were made during the build IF you want to keep it LSA compliant.
2-cents,

Aha!! Thank-you Mel, I'd forgotten obviously.
So the OPs "Phase 2 Test" isn't really a test phase at all. It just requires normal documentation/log entries for maintenance, upgrades, condition inspections, etc.
Correct?
