I must be doing something wrong; every contingency I plan for never happens. I am always a little anxious when flying other non pilots; the night before I go over in my mind about what could happen and my actions to be. Have I checked this or that lately? Fortunately, to date, every contingency for which I plan never happens. Sad to hear that the problem was pilot/builder actions related but as you say, the person who knows and knows he knows does not often listen even to low key suggestions or observations.

Well said. Plan ahead. Consider what could happen and how you will react.
I built my plane and am familiar and confident in checking the airframe, but I always have a mechanic check out my engine at annual and - guess what!
He found a nut missing on my alternator this year that I did not see! Was that the best $200 spent, and the best second set of eyes ever! Also, never depart from proper maintenance procedures unless you have checked with a VERY reliable AP/IA. Humility is your friend.....overconfidence your enemy. If everything is not right - don't fly.

I do the same. I have a local AP/IA do the firewall forward
inspection....he will be doing the mags this year. As much as I want to
learn and do it all myself, I feel much better that I have a person who has
done 100's of mags doing mine instead of me doing my first one and then
loading the family in the plane.
