In one of those aviation "oh S%!+" moments, one of my flaps got a small dent today when my co-pilot left a chair under the wing. The chair was not visibile during my preflight from the pilot's seat. The answer to my question "Why won't the flaps extend all the way?" was, "Because, dummy, there's a chair wedged beneath them."
The damage is costmetic (a very shallow dent). My A&P said it's definitely not an airworthiness issue.
But now I need to fix it, if not for me, for re-sale. Questions...
Anyone know a good place to get a repair in So. Cal.? The flap is metal, though the rest of the plane is composite (SR22).
Anyone know if this has to be a disclosure item on sale of the plane?
As always, thank you for any advice.
