| Post subject: | Question for you guys |
If a guy buys an N-numbered Experimental aircraft like a Kitfox, is it possible to register it second hand somehow to get the Repairman Cert on it? What must be done? All answers are on the table, Location precludes my friend getting an A&P Annual each year. Can you tear down and rebuild it to obtain a new registration number? Will not be used commercially in any way. Thx |

You could take the repairmans course. The FAA frowns on disassembling and reassembling to claim a build, but I am sure that it happens all the time. Not sure about an answer Benry. A kitfox would be fun, here is some fun in Idaho with a kitfox, Rans and super cub. Longer version: |

lots of unnecessary work to disassemble, Just take the repairman's course and be done with it. |

An experimental certificated Aircraft Amateur Built conditional inspection requires an A/P or the original builder with a Repairman certificate. Light Sport Aircraft certified as light Sport both Amateur / Factory built have its own Repairmans course not eligible for Experimental Amateur Built certificated Aircraft. Even an A/P can NOT certify a Light Sport certified aircraft without the added course [ Different standards in Regulation ] A normal category Aircraft that qualifies as light Sport require an AI for annuals as the Aircraft holds a normal/standard air worthiness certificate. Like having certified parts [data plate with SN#] you have to comply to the standards of the product even if installed on Experimental certificated Aircraft.... Light Sport Certified /Light Sport Experimental are not the same as Experimental Amateur built in the eyes of the regulators... Tell your friend.... Your Kit fox Certified as Amateur Built Experimental Air Craft requires a minimum of a Certified A/P mechanic for a conditional inspection....As you are not the builder .... finding an A/P is your easiest route . FAA takes a dim view on the teardown and rebuild method as it usually produces a pile of scrap. |

Thanks guys. I guess best et would be to buy a Sportcopter and re register it as N388HS, that way my repaiman cert would look correct!!!! |

1. FAA only looks at log books after an accident / incident 2. you don't keep log books in the plane 3. Mechanics are only responsible for their work, Not required to report violations to FAA. 4. Don't crash or do something that requires the FAA to look at your A/C log books. 5. If they ask "They're in transit and might take forever to get. . ." You heard it from the wind. . . Not me. . .
