New EAA Homebuilt Certification Kit Simplifies Complex Process

 

March 30, 2006 — EAA's new Amateur-Built Aircraft Certification Kit includes everything you need to register and certificate a new experimental amateur-built aircraft. The 15-page, step-by-step Certification Guide walks you through the entire process-from getting an N number to the aircraft inspection-and provides samples of how to complete each required form.

EAA staff member and Amateur-Built DAR Joe Norris, who reviewed all of the materials included in the kit, commented, "Whenever I inspect an aircraft for certification, the paperwork is what causes delays more often than anything on the aircraft. This guide will make a homebuilder's inspection go a lot easier."

The certification kit also includes all FAA forms, Experimental sticker (in black), dataplate, and a convenient placard decal sheet. Cost for EAA members is $12.99 plus shipping. The kit is also available for non-members for $19.99 plus shipping. To order, call EAA Membership Services at 800/JOIN EAA (564-6322), or visit http://shop.eaa.org.
