Para 459(e) is correct
first there is FAA DC Policy then Regional Policy now down to Office Policy.
In my area , due to all the builders for hire our office policy is to look close at photos and the build log. The Kitfox build manual is what i am using along with photos.
Best to get a DAR and see what they need
I do Kitfox aircraft in my area for free but I am in Little Rock Ar
call me if needed
