I learned from my DAR that these are not needed at time of inspection for the pink slip.  However, if you want a maintenance approval you have to go back to the FAA after you’ve flown off the hours to get that license or whatever it is called.  At that time you’ll need to produce said documents.  If you don’t have, you may not be able to be the legal repair guy for your bird.

No expertise on this subject claimed – just what my DAR told me.

Fellows,
 
Getting close to that time for a DAR.
 
For those of you who have been there are photos and a builders log a requirement, I went exactly by the manuels so did'nt bother with logs and most of the photos melted in the file cabinet in the hangar.
 
Any advise before I make the arrangements.
