I've a friend who's plane's cert was delayed because some obscure item
wasn't labelled. My friend was sufficiently tweaked that he made a great
big, long P touch that said "pitch trim override" and stuck it all down the
back side of the stick. As excess labelling isn't prohibited, the plane
did get the cert. The DAR wasn't amused, but I got a giggle out of it....

It's things like this that makes my blood boil. I know, it doesn't take
much, but I hear about DARs with their own 'likes and dislikes' which
has nothing to do with certifying an EXPERIMENTAL aircraft! I wish
someone could point me to a 'standard' for an airworthiness inspection.
I haven't found anything in my cursory look. Years ago my DAR inspected
my Pitts .... mostly by saying it looked like aPitts, and should fly OK
(wasn't terribly misrigged etc.) and bring me back safely. He did say
that if I had buildt the Pitts out of the cardboard backs from notepads
he probably would have some concerns!!!

Oh yeah, and then there's the fee!
