Obtaining FAA Records

[Geico266]

Somehow I lost my Operating Limitations for my experimental RV-3 which are required to be in the airplane for flight.

Upon advice from RogerT, I ordered duplicate paperwork (on a CD) of all the records for my airplane (or any plane) from the FAA and it was here in 2-3 days!

I just thought someone here might want that ordering info.

I have very complete records now! When I get ramped checked now I'll just hand the FAA inspector the CD! No where in the regs does it say what form the operating limitations must be in! :wink2:

That's funny!!!

I have had that link bookmarked and used it for our club Mooneys, found out all kinds of interesting stuff about one of them in particular.

If you don't have paper in the plane, don't be surprised if the inspector goes into a "stump the chump" routine to see if you or whoever is flying knows the limitations by heart.

I would just tell them I would need to read the limitations. The regs say they need to be in the plane and available to the pilot, and they are! :wink2:

I know, it is a silly point, but it is interesting, and I think it would be defendable in a court of law!

I'm no lawyer, didn't stay at a Holiday Inn Express, but would you not need a working computer to read the CD, along with whatever software reads the files as well?

My reasoning is that, without said computer and software, the data can't be read, and thus isn't available.

Don't worry, I'm sure our "internet lawyers" will be along shortly to clear this up, and they'll even begin citing "case law" to back up their arguments.

I'm sure- I'll just step back now and watch the fun.
