IFR Cert

I was informed by the FAA man that signed off my installation that when I do the three approaches (he gave me a list of the three to shoot) and get the signitures of my avionics IA guy and the instructor on the form that he already fillied out that he will come out to the airport with the approved 337. This is how they did the VFR installation 337. The FAA in my area works very quick for some reason. When I installed the EI graphics gages and had the 337 filled out and signed by my IA, I had the 337 back the next day. The maintenance shop that works on my bird seems to get things done with the FAA extremely fast. I witnessed this when they installed a camera system on a Navaho and had to cut a 3 foot hole in the belly. The FAA was up there about 3 days a week during the entire project and issued the 337 when the paint was on and drying. They (FAA) did most of the foot work on the engineering analysis, which seemed odd and out of the ordinary to me.
