Eagle Ultralight

When building an experimental plane, when and how often do you need an FAA examiner to approve your work ?

I am building a Legal Eagle (ultralight) from plans. However, it will not be an Ultralight, the mods planed will not make the weight.

I assume you are building a home built experimental that will meet the FAA requirement of 51% rule. If so the FAA or DAR does not want to see your aircraft until it is ready to roll down the runway.

However, there are many organizations that will assist and inspect your aircraft during your building process. These organizations provide guidance and assistance. The FAA inspectors are not allowed to assist with any inspections or building. All the FAA or DARs do in perform the certification and issue you the Special Airworthiness certificate and limitations.

I have lots of information on my personal web site with checklist to assist homebuilders and all the required information you will need to get through certification. My personal web site is: http://www.stacheair.com If you need additional assistance there is a hyper link to me on the web site.

To answer you question about milestones, if you are keeping a builder log and taking pictures along the way this is how the FAA or DAR will determine you meet the 51% rule. They will only want to see that at the time of certification.

I would recommend you contact your local Flight Standard District Office a few weeks before you are ready for certification and send they the required forms such as the FAA 8130-6 application to start the process. Nothing will happen until the FAA or DAR reviews this form.
