Flying off another builders Phase 1?
Hey guys-
Looking at picking up a new toy - an Airbike. I've found one I like, but it only has 7 hours total time on it. Both engine and airframe.
Can I as non-builder fly off phase I?

Any qualified pilot can fly off the phase I testing.
Read the operating limitations and make sure you adhere to the flight test area. If you intend to do the flight testing in a different geographical location, you must get the op lims amended.

How can I go about getting the operations limitations amended? Plane is in Oklahoma. I'm bringing it to Alabama. |

You'll need to contact you local FSDO and tell them you need to have the op lims amended. They can do it for free.
Otherwise you would have to hire a DAR to do it.

Ok, so after I get the plane here, call up the FSDO and go from there? That seems easy enough. |

Might want to call John Burgin, DAR in BHM, before calling the BHM FSDO. John will know who you want to contact.
