OK my next problem.
You folks have always come to my rescue in previous jams. I am sending this to several "lists" in hopes of getting some help. BTW there ares at least two other projects in our local area that will be in the same predicament.
After three years of building and anticipating the sign-off of my Kit Built Zenith CH 701 I find that the DAR that I spoke with three years ago who did inspections in our area - Boise ID / Twin Falls ID - has hung up his hat and no longer does the airworthiness inspections.
I looked - cursory glance - at the EAA list of inspectors and the closest three I could find were: Salt Lake City Utah area, Eastern Oregon and Montana - all some distance away.
I have been told, but not checked, the FAA office in Boise does not do the inspection due to lack of time and also not the proper credentials.
What to do, what to do - I should be ready in a matter of weeks. Any ideas of DAR volunteers that would like to make a nice trip to sunny southern Idaho, would offer the possibility of great home cooked meals, lodging, golf, trout fishing just about anything to get this done expeditiously.
Your thoughts please, drop an email or give me a call.

Hi Phil,
My suggestion is that you contact your local FAA (FSDO?) office and discuss this with them. They should have two solutions to offer: Perform the actual inspection themselves; and put you in contact with a local DAR.
Good luck,

Phil,
Russ Graves did retiree about a year ago!
It is rumored that the FAA won’t approve another DAR for the Southern Idaho area.
Guess what? The personnel from the FAA Boise office just signed off a Kit Fox in Caldwell, so you shouldn’t have any problems except maybe distance.
I think that they have set a president!
If all fails, there is a gentleman from SLC that just signed off an XL in Mountain Home – he was fair on his fee, travel and lodging. I think it was $600.00+/-.
There is a gentlemen in Coeur D’ Alene that I understand does it for expenses.
I’ll get you their names and phone numbers if you wish.
Mack
