PA 18 -A Conversion to standard Airframes Ak. Fuselage

Depending on the IA and part of the country you are in you may not need anything. I would call Airframes and ask them, I know it has been done before.

Hi Denny, thanks. I am an IA. We are converting a customer's airplane. I have reached out to Airframes Alaska but haven't heard back. Airframes told the customer that a field approval is needed. The A model isn't on the approved list of the STC.

If it isn’t on the STC or PMA, it could be done with a Field Approval or 8110-3 deviation. Does your -18A have a Standard or Restricted Certificate? Changing from Restricted to Standard can be tricky as the TC says you need the hopper cover in place so you need a deviation from that as well.

Thanks dgapilot. I'll look into that.

I have a 337 converting a A to a standard 18 but not on a new fuselage. I would think you could use that for your FA.
