REFLECTOR: Builder POH additions

[Terry Miles]

Hi,

 

I have been working a document that could be construed as a POH supplement.
I have seen some pretty fancy and extensive POH by some builders.  

 

What are all of you doing?  

 

As far as what is FAR legal, at a ramp check, wouldn't the Velocity
published Flight Manual and Weight and Balance book suffice for the POH
requirement?  

(Obviously the wgt and bal numbers would have to be airplane to airplane
specific.) 

 

In the area of performance I haven't seen any Velo specific charts for
things like measuring tkof wgt, density alt, and ground roll.  Does anybody
have a basic set of performance charts for the XL?

 

As for systems operations and descriptions:  I have a pretty extensive
collection of my own notes and of course a lot of avionics Pilot Ops Guide
books and the like, but I am thinking now that they should be considered as
part of a hangar library rather than formally made a part of  the POH.
That said:   I do plan to fly cross country with a laptop loaded with all
this stuff and a spare USB drive with backups.

 

Last, to give an example of what I mean, here is one done by a Long EZ guy.
I also have the PDF version of this if anybody wants it.  It is complete
with all kinds of nice artwork and charts that's over a meg in size.  

 

Anybody wanna talk about what their POH looks like?

 

Thanks,

Terry
