So folks, I am next week going to be the new owner of a partially completed RV-9A kit. The seller has a sheet from Vans with a build number. It seems that the intent is that the form be completed in duplicate and signed and stamped by a notary to transfer possession of the kit from 1 owner to the other.
The form does not have the name of an owner on it, nor does it even indicate the type of airplane (it seems the form was developed when the RV-8 was the highest Vans number and there is a spot to fill in the model number but it is currently blank.
Do you have any advice in this regard ? I will have what is considered a legal deed of sale for the state of AZ listing the build number. Does the Vans form need to be filled out in duplicate and notarized and what happens then, do I keep 1 copy and send the other to Vans ? This kind of activity must go on all the time with kits changing hands ?
