DO NOT fax photos of your plane or inspections checklists! I
will need three original photos: front, side and rear views when I do your inspection.
They must be photos of your aircraft ready to inspect with N-nuimbers applied

Please read the "How to certify your Experimental Light Sport Aircraft" guide below. There are very important things contained in those instructions.
I have added information and help here to aid you in the process of "N-Numbering" your ultralight trainer. You may download the same checklist I use for each class of aircraft inspection and some of the forms you will need. As time goes on I will add items. The checklists will help you in preparing your aircraft only if you check each item. If it is on the checklist I WILL be checking it, so don't think you don't have to have it. If you have any questions feel free to call or email me at: cposer@comcast.net and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Hanowski Weight & Loading Tom Hanowski's very complete and well laid out Weight and
Loading form for a Powered Parachute.
This form has all the attributes of a certified aircraft W&L form and is one
of the best ones I have seen.
It makes my job as a DAR much easier when I see forms like this:
Sample PPC weight and loading form for fixed CG tubes
Sample PPC weight and loading form for adjustable CG tubes
