Several of the notes in this thread mention the FSDO saying "they have
to inspect all the experimental gliders in their area"-- is this a new
reg or something or just a current emphasis by the FAA/

1 - The original airworthy certificate was issued by the Reno NV FSDO



and the first two owners sent the letter there. *I am in the SLC UT
area and am wondering if I can/should send the letter to the Reno FSDO
or do I need to send it to the SLC FSDO?

2 - If I send it to the local SLC FSDO should I include a copy of the
original paperwork?

I will be contacting the SLC FSDO next week but wanted to solicit
opinions here first

Thanks in advance

According to Reno FSDO they have received an edict for the Western-
Pacific Region to inspect all experimental exhibition aircraft. They
have three years to complete the inspections. This is for all
experimental exhibition aircraft not just gliders. They were not sure
if this edict was nationwide. As I stated before they are mainly
looking at the aircraft logs for maintenance but being a ramp
inspection I will be ready for everything. The program letters are due
yearly and can be updated during the year. When asked what would
happen if they didn't like my program letter they said they would just
have me do another one. No big deal. VN
