<p>In Canada the current owner of the home-built can do the inspection. It does not have to be the original builder - unlike our American friends south of the border.</p>

<p>If you built the plane, yes you can do your own annual. If you have an SLSA, have it changed to an ELSA and take a 2 day class, you can do your own annuals(at least that's the way I understand it). Sadly you can't take the class and do your own annuals if you have an EAB.</p>

<p>After the fact, I had a couple of A&P tell me about 600 dollars. Because I could not find anyone wanting to touch mine the A & p that would charged me 2500. Because of the past problems with the 601 no body wanted to touch mine in the local area Check with Buzz @ Buzz Air, they travel all over the country doing inspections for Zenith Aircraft, and will even ferry the plane for you</p>

<p>Well, I bought my plane already built. The previous owner(not the builder) was paying $650 for his annual in South Jersey. I live on Long Island, NY and my first annual ended up costing me $1400(because I had to do it through the flight school's shop). Last year my mechanic just did it on his own and charged me $800. I have a new mechanic but it looks like he's willing to do it for the same $800(although I'm having the main wheels and brakes swapped out so he'll get some extra for that). I…</p>

I think the $800 is reasonable. What the flight school charged me was a bit ridiculous for an experimental light-sport.</p>
