Registration

At what point in the construction do most people register their RV ? I am 75% complete with the empennage and the quick build wing and fuselage are schudeled to arrive in April. N number is reserved Sam Fly

I registered mine about 3/4 way through my QB project. Once you get your major components from Van's, have Barb Billman send you a Bill of Sale. My local FSDO (MKE) sent me a homebuilder package with all the forms and circulars. If your's is not so accommodating, try:

My FSDO also did my AW inspection. They are free!!

? Most People?

I do not know what "they", do,?,,,,,, but when I am six weeks out from finishing. I regester the airplane so I am ready to certify

The FSDO is doing my AW in a few days. They want 3-6 months notice before you are ready for your AW. They have to look busy ya know

It took OK City only a few weeks to get my registration back, so you don't need 6 months to get it done, but it is the one big thing (other than building a plane) that you need to get done before your AW. By the way the local FSDO here in Detroit is a couple feet from my hanger door and they have been great to deal with. They do seem like one day they might want to pass all the work to DAR's.
