I’ve been doing my first annual on my experimental (didn’t build it so I don’t have the repairman cert for it) under the supervision of an A&P. (He has IA but it’s not required for this.)
I’m reasonably handy and mechanically-minded, but I’ve learned a ridonkulous amount of stuff under the tutelage of the mech. Wish I’d built my airplane but this has arguably been the next best thing. I’m grateful that my local shop is a huge believer in owner involvement with maintenance. My skills have leveled up at least one level here.
It takes a hell of a lot of time and knowledge to earn an A&P and I’m kind of shocked that they don’t make more money than they do at the GA level.
I couldn’t do it every day; I’d go nuts. But as an owner/enthusiast I’ve got mad respect for the things these guys know.
