All questions have to be answered correctly, New guys in aviation have to make their way to aviatio knowledge with the help of all of us.
80% in this case is the scale of the replica about the original. other designers use scales 7/8 3/4 etc... normally the Antique and War airplanes are (were) very big and powerfull, then we have very bright designers that "design " an airplane that looks similar to the original but uses smaller engines, alternate materials, smaller aver all size, etc. like the 5151 wooden replica of the P51 Mustang. One of my favorite low cost replica, another good one (and very inexpensive) is late Graham Lee's 7/8 Neiuport 11 replica.
Note: I had the chance to make good internet friends with Mr Graham Lee.
Also I was fortunate enough (by accident visiting the Beechcraft Museum) to meet in person Mr Loehle (P 5151 designer) when I went to the Jabiru Seminar about March this year. In that same Hangar I meet Mr Eric Cluton (designer of F.R.E.D. airplane and the writer of the his Propeller building book)!!!
Is like meeting the Living Aviation History for someone from a foreign Country. When you see names like this only in magazines... Meeting the people in person, is Great.
Also you discover that they are real friendly guys that treat you as they were your old time friends...
Sorry guys for the long post. Experimental Aviation (world wide) is a big family.
Hope this helps

Well, that leaves me with a question. Do you have to be ready to fly before the inspection? 80% Tiger Moth Replica. What did he have left to do at the time of inspection?
Thanks,

I recently sat in while a friend of mine had his 80% Tiger Moth Replica inspected by a inspector from the Detroit FSDO. The inspector was knowledgeable and excellent to work with and my friend came away with his airworthiness certificate without a hassle. The FAA guy had forgotten his temporary airman certificates blanks so he flew back in the next week to issue my friend his repairman certificate. Talk about service!
If anyone on the group is in the Detroit FSDO's service area and would like to schedule an inspection with this inspector contact me direct and I'll give you the info.

Thanks Gary, that does explain it nicely. I have done a lot of research on the inspection and I have seen 7/8, 3/4 etc, but I have not seen the % ratio before. My first thought was that he was 80% done, not that he had a 7/8 scale replica.
Thanks,
Larry
