				All,
 Depending on how it is registered, can a buyer/flyer do maintenance on it by attending/passing the ELSA repairman classes?
 It looks like it is registered as amateur, can it be re-registered as ELSA so that the owner/buyer can work on it? 
 
 Just wondering.

 If it is licensed as an experimental, it is very unlikely it can be 
 re-registered as an ELSA. I believe there was a period in which so-called 
 "fat" ultralights could be re-registered (or really, registered) as an LSA, 
 but that time has passed.
 
 If it is an experimental, then either a repairman's certificate for that 
 aircraft or an A&P ticket will be required. The builder of the aircraft could 
 have requested a repairman's certificate, but I don't believe that option is 
 open to a future buyer.
 
 Short answer: I don't think so.

				Hi Keith,
 
 I think it is the airworthiness certificate that matters rather than 
 the registration.
 
 If it is E-AB or E-LSA then anyone can work on it.  For E-AB the 
 builder who has the repairman certificate for this plane can sign off 
 an annual inspection.  For E-LSA anyone can attend a 16(?) hour class 
 and be able to sign off the annual for a plane he owns.  In all cases 
 an A&P can sign off the annual.
 
 Have fun,
 
 Paul

				It appears to have been registered as an E-AB, if that is so, it can't be re-registered as an E-LSA because the "fat ultralight" deadline has passed and that was the only way a Zodiac could be registered as an E-LSA. As an E-AB, anyone can do any of the maintenance on the airplane, no certification of any kind is needed. However, an amateur builder repairman certificate for that particular airplane or an A&P licence is required for signing off the annual condition inspection. The only person who can get the repairman certificate is the original builder. So, if you buy it, you can maintain it but you will almost certainly need to have an A&P sign off the annual.

 All,
 Depending on how it is registered, can a buyer/flyer do maintenance on it by attending/passing the ELSA repairman classes?
 It looks like it is registered as amateur, can it be re-registered as ELSA so that the owner/buyer can work on it? 
 
 Just wondering.

 I looked it up.It was EXP-AB. And the deadline for E-LSA has long passed.
 
 Any future owner can do all the work on it as they can any EXP-AB but an A&P is required for the annual.

				A builder who's already well along on their own plane could snap this up "for parts".
 
 Think of it as a "quick build" fuselage, with a spare set of wings...
 
 I forget exactly what I paid for my fuselage kit, but it must have been a solid $5000 when you add in crating and shipping plus all the other nickel & dime stuff you need but don't get.  Add another $2000 for the canopy.  Then there's the instruments, the seats, the labor...
 
 Some builder is going to get a real jump-start here.  Where were the deals like this a year or two ago when I could have used them...
