Well it turns out that I did not have to let go, one FAA dark lord said one thing and when I talked with the other FAA Dark Lord in charge of the FSDO phone today he said just send in the program letter and that was all he needed or wanted... there is a God after all. Back to my winter tune up.

If the limitations on your plane don't require a letter, then you don't have to send one in. Period. No matter what your local guy says. If your airworthiness certificate and limitations were issued back in 1979, then you probably don't have the requirement to submit a letter. I recommend you read your plane's limitations. If there is no requirement to send in a letter, don't do it. Don't ask the local FSDO if you need to, either. You are not doing anything wrong by complying with the requirements of the plane's airworthiness certificate.

Sorry, but I just get frustrated when people think "He had to do it, so I do to. Now, how do I do that?"
