Group,

I'm just now going thru the registration/ certification process, so here are a few "heads ups" I found.

1) Start the process 6 months before expected inspection date. FAA states 60-90 days just to process registration, which must be complete before inspection/certification.

2) Don't expect your local FSDO to know anything about registration. That is not their job. OTOH, don't expect anyone to answer the phone in OK City, all I got this morn was a busy signal, not even elevator music, so tried the FSDO which although sympathetic, could not answer questions about registration, only certification.

3) After putting both me and spouse's names on Bill of Sale from Van's, I wish I hadn't, raises questions about paperwork, which is why I needed to call FAA in the first place.

4) Read everything the EAA says about the process, they have a ton of stuff. FAA does also.

5) Van's can't tell you anything about the process, not their thing.

6) Find a fellow builder who has gone thru the process recently and have them review before you send the registration app to OK City. Thank you, Len Kaufmann...

7) One would just hate to wait 90 days, then have to do it all again because of an undotted "i" or sumpin'.

Cool Now I'll just wait and hope. I think the FAA has some sort of tracking thing that lets you see how your paperwork is doing...

9) Did I mention "Start Early"?

Regards,
Jerry Cochran

Well, you couldn’t be more right. I just got my A/W today after a couple of weeks of wrangling. One issue is I moved since I registered the a/c and put my new address on the A/W application. In short – Don’t. I got lucky and was able to backtrack. A friend attempted to get his done same time as I and as it turns out he put “Zenith” as the Manufacture. Don’t make that mistake.

I would ask your inspector to go over your paperwork at least 2 weeks prior to inspection to verify you have everything right before you submit it.
