Before my KR-2 airworthiness inspection, I had an A&P do a "practice"
inspection. He found a few minor things and I fixed these before he left.
He never charged me anything. He just wanted to crawl around a KR-2 for a
nostalgia trip. He had built a KR-2 some years ago.
I used the Washington FSDO for my KR-2 airworthiness inspection; actually
two FSDO inspectors showed up to do the inspection. They each wanted to do
the inspection because they had never seen a KR-2 until I sent them the
three-view pictures.
The DAR happens to be a member of our EAA Chapter. He charges $500 per
visit and goes all over the East coast. He tells me what invariably happens
is: He finds stuff that the builder has to correct. So, he has to return
weeks later for another inspection and finds stuff needing correction that
the builder screwed up since his last visit. That needs fixing, so then he
has to come back a third time. He complains "Haven't these guys ever heard
about 41.13 or Tony Bengalis?"

Sid, are you saying your DAR usually charges $1,500.00 for a sign off?
If so, he seems like he is taking advantage of you guys!!

Our EAA Chapter has a member who is also a DAR. He charges $500 per
inspection visit and usually takes 3 visits.

Finally the Rt.aileron is made. The counter wieght came out really well.
?Once I got the lead melted I poured it into a wooden box that I made in
about 2 minutes with my brad nailer. This weight was a little lite. ?So made
it a little wider and it came out perfect.?
