Category Archives: TC Visits

I had my third technical counselor visit on 25 June 2019. Since there are no counselors currently residing in Tasmania, I’m very fortunate that my TC, Brian, is prepared to fly down from interstate for the day. We had a good session on the Fuselage progress in the morning, went to lunch, and visited a friend’s RV-9A project in the afternoon.

In Australia, you need at least 3 SAAA Technical Counselor (TC) visits during construction in order to check off a box with the insurance company. In my case I have to fly a TC down from the mainland, so we did a combined visit between myself and an RV-9A builder in my local area. We all had a good day going over the two projects, it was good to spend some workshop time just chatting about the build(s). My TC is a wealth of information and we were able to spend some time at the end of the day going over the paperwork requirements for having a C of A issued in Australia.

I had my first SAAA Technical Counsellor visit today. Brian, my TC, flew down from Melbourne early AM to inspect the workshop and  each of the empennage sub-assemblies. The visit went well and I wasn’t advised to turn it into a garden ornament.
