I have some questions about experimentals that I hope wome of you will be able to answer. Forgive my ignorance.
I'm considering purchasing en experimental A/C. Let's say I purchase said A/C. What maintenance or alteration, if any, am I allowed to do on said A/C? I understand that it must have a Conditon Inspection done annually, which can be completed by either the original builder or a A@P or IA?
What if I desire to make one or more additional alterations or additions to said A/C? For example, I install 31" AKBushwheels, and maybe an engine mod. for more HP. Is it legal for me to do? Do I have to get authorization from the original builder? File a form 337? Get a log book entry signed by an IA?
IN other words, what are my limitations? Can I still modify, perform maintenance and repairs, and other such things, once I become the owner of the A/C?
I'm really interested in what everyone thinks. These questions should be of concern to anyone considering the purchase of an experimental A/C.
Thanks, everyone, for any information you con provide.
