My DAR found a couple of very minor items like a placard on the 
external canopy latch and the like.  He made a note in my log, as I 
recall, had me correct them, make a log entry of such, and send him a 
copy of the log page.  In was noted on the inspection that I was good 
to go after correction and log entry.  Your results may vary..

Re: KR> AIRCRAFT INSPECTIONS

[Sid Wood via KRnet]

Before my KR-2 airworthiness inspection, I had an A 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.?
