Can someone tell me what exactly goes on the data plate for the aircraft? I know Builder, Model, and SN just like the registration.
What goes under "model"?
My registration has "Manufacturer and Manufacturer Designation of Aircraft":
"JOHN D JOHNSON VANS RV-7"
Does this go on both "Model" and Builder "Name"?
My "issued to" section has my name written "JOHNSON JOHN D" plus address.
Thanks for your help.

Ok, for your example you would put "John D Johnson" as the "Builder" or "Manufacturer". You would put "Vans RV-7" as the model.
If the registration shows the MANUFACTURER name as "John D Johnson", then that's the way you put it on the data plate. The info has to match EXACTLY.
The format for the owner's name is not relevant. Only the "MANUFACTURER" or "BUILDER" name matters. Whatever is shown on the registration has to be on the data plate in exactly the same format.
The FAA will always put your last name first on the "issued to" section. They very often put last name first in the Manufacturer section as well, but according to your example they did not do it in your case.
Bottom line, don't change anything from how it shows on the registration certificate.
