Subject: | Re: "Hypethetically" |
It sounds like a "data plate restoration", where an antique airplane
restorer has nothing but a data plate and an airwothiness certificate and,
well, replaces everything else and has an original antique airplane when
he's done.
What you're describing, the way you're describing it, isn't legal... but
it's perfectly legal to, say, replace the wings with a set of used wings,
and replace the fuselage with a good used fuselage, install a new used
engine and... well, you get the idea. Just a situation where the decision
might be just how verbose to be in the logbook...
A single seat FSII would certainly be overweight for 103, but it wouldn't
be the first one.

My friend was not sure about the 447 powered version meeting all the 103 criteria
it was a topic of discussion though! Outside of weight I think it would fit
in the categorie and unless the FAA(Friendly Aviation Associates) had a set
of scales in their car they would be hard pressed to prove it!

Wonder if this guy's friend knows you are posting this info on an open email
list?
Yes, even the FAA knows a FF will barely make Part 103 if starved to death.
They also know that all the other models of Kolbs will not even get close to
Part 103 requirements.
Your friend does not seem to be very well educated in Kolb aircraft.

Subject: | Re: "Hypethetically" |
Education is a relative term and is subject to the standards set forth by the judging
party. Hence a brain surgeon is well versed on the human brain but would
be relatively ignorant in a discussion with a proctologist! Never the less
they could have a meaningful discussion about HMO's and frivolous law suits and
mutually enjoy the various different prospectives. One might even argue that
the brain surgeon and proctologist, both doctors, view the same person from
opposite ends! :D
The same argument could be made about aviation safety. Is it safe to do a snap
roll on take off??? The answer is both yes and no, neither one is necessarily
correct. If a newbie sport pilot tries it, it is reasonable to call it unsafe
however, if Shaun Tucker were to do it nobody would call it unreasonably
dangerous or foolish!
Also what exactly is a safe, properly registered EAB airplane any how? Who knows?
One FSDO's answer frequently varies quite a lot from another. What makes
an EAB airworthy...the DAR and the paper work not necessarily the airplane.
My friend has flown some "Certificated" "Real" airplanes that were far less physically
airworthy than a non-certificated EAB's. What makes an airplane airworthy???
The paper work not the airplane. Is it legal to fly an airplane out
of annual, YES. Is it legal to fly an airplane with broken parts, yes! Is
it legal to fly through class B airspace without a transponder, YES! Why, because
of paperwork, if paperwork is all in order then all these things become
not only legal but safe if executed properly.
As for the discussion taking place on a public, open forum....You hit the nail
on the head of one of the major, major problems with aviation! If an individual
has a question or situation that falls outside of what most consider the norm,
who can he or she discuss it with? Most just bury it or hide it or pretend
it never happened out of fear of false accusations/assumptions by others.
That being the case more often then not, how then as aviators, are we to learn
as well as teach others!
I opened this thread for "My friend" because if the question/thought crossed his
mind then I find it entirely likely this is not the first time the issue has
come up!
Perhaps if we can discuss it for what it is then rather than calling foul...we
can all learn a little something and be safer and better educated in the end!!!!!
