I personally believe the information contained in AC 43.13-1B and AC 43.13-2A contains information EVERY homebuilder should have in his possession. It is the FAA "Acceptable Methods, Techniques, and Practices, Aircraft Inspection and Repair. Jeppesen puts out a copy of this important Advisory Circular (nearly 2" thick) which covers the majority of questions asked on the site which are related to structural fasteners; electronic wiring; covering everything the title mentions.
If it is important enough for a certified mechanic to know, shouldn't it apply to all of us? Our lives are worth the same if in a homebuilt or a production plane!!!
Sincerely,
Elbie EAA 38308, I've been messing with the homebuilts for a long time

Great advice for all of us Elbie.
As we "Repairman" do the condition inspection for our Experimental Homebuilts we need to be aware of what & how to inspect, and what condition to look for. 43.13 Advisory Circular helps a lot.
Some EAA Chapters have sessions on Condition Inspection requirements and procedures. Good to ask about and to request such sessions. EAA TC's and Ex Repairmen can help. Ask your chapter leaders to set up such sessions. Evan a little at a time, as in one system at a time will help.
Test your self by writing out an inspection plan, with procedures and check lists for your aircraft. Ask for help as you do the inspection your self.
If you did not start with the Annual Condition Inspection check list in Part 43, consider returning to go.
Your Repairman Certificate allows you to sign off the condition of an aircraft that will be flown by someone very dear to your heart.
