After verifying that his information is correct, your signature with that entry should be just as valid in the engine log as any A&P. You, as the owner of an aircraft licensed experimental, are authorized to perform all maintenance. You must have someone with at least an A&P license do the annual condition inspection unless you, as the builder, apply for and receive a mechanics license for that aircraft. I wonder what kind of firestorm this will set off. :-) Larry Flesner
