A quick question on the process of registering my plane. I have an N number reserved and now need to proceed with the registration process. I have read on the FAA website that I need to contact them and submit a ten dollar fee to have the N number assigned. My question is this. Is this the time I send them Form 1050-1 and 8130-12 or is that a separate process? I have tried to speak with someone at the registration office in OK. but have been put on perpetual hold. Thanks

You don't need to send the 8130-12 to Oklahoma City. You will give that to your inspector.
Registration fee is $5. The $10 was to reserve the number and you have done that already.
Just send a letter stating that you want your "reserved" number assigned to this aircraft.

That EAA registration "kit" is really helpful in matters like this too. Walks you through what forms and what needs to go where.

I went through a lot of the same questions to get mine registered. I wrote down everything I could think that might help the next guy. Check it out:

Second the EAA kit. Everything you need with detailed instructions, all of the forms, a checklist, stickers and a data plate.
