This is a reminder, especially for those of you who are new to Experimental aircraft ownership. Make certain your Operating Limitations are actually in the aircraft. If you look at your Airworthiness certificate it explicitly states that the Operating Limitations are a part of the Certificate. They are usually 4-6 pages in length and are on FAA letterhead.
From a number of threads on this Board there are many new owners and new builders headed to OSH. Check your aircraft for the proper documents.
These are not to be confused with your POH or operations manual (if there is one). I have had a number of new owners show me their POH when I've asked for the Operating Limitations. Right now I have an RV-8 in for a CI. The owner is planning to head to OSH later this week, and there are no Limitations to be found anywhere.
If you can't find them, get on the phone to FAA Registration Branch in OKC. They should have a copy in the aircraft file they can send you.
