Okay guys, be gentle. I am still knew to this but here goes. Can any A&P mechanic do the annual inspection of my Gyro?
Thanks,

Hello Bryan,
The following below is an excerpt from my operating limitations.
These are the rules that my gyroplane, The Predator, N142 MG, operates under.
In my opinion most operating limitations for experimental aircraft will use similar language.
In my opinion an A&P has an appropriate certificate.
I use an IA who also has an appropriate certificate.
Many with the appropriate certificate will not sign off an experimental because the rules are fuzzy and they are not comfortable with the elevated liability.
I have been told that when you build an experimental aircraft yourself you have the opportunity to get a certificate for that aircraft if you are deemed qualified.
Thank you, Vance
