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,
A few years back I used to own a two seat Kolb MarkIII. I made it into an ELSA. There were no DARS in Arizona for this. It was just too new. I found a guy in San Diego and flew him out for the day for the inspection. It really wasn't that bad of an expense. Southwest round trip, plus his normal fee. You may want to consider this option. It is a one time expense and may not be a s bad as you think.

Phil
I can sympathize with your situation. I would contact the FAA in Oklahoma for more information regarding the obligations of your local FSDO office. If I am not mistaken if there are no DAR's within a reasonable distance the FSDO office may be obligated to give you a free inspection. Hope this helps.
