      In the April 2015 issue of Kitplanes in the "Ask the DAR" section, the writer suggests
      that all pilots of aircraft utilizing the NX markings without the word
      "experimental" on the aircraft carry a copy of CFR_45.22b to show any FAA inspector
      who questions them on it.
      
      In case anyone needs/wants a copy, I have attached a copy below. I reduced the
      font to get it all on one page. I plan on doing just that and using the NX markings
      on my Pietenpol. It sounds like a good practice to me, since it comes from
      a DAR.
      
      Just thought I would save forum members the time of looking for it.

      Thanks, Terry. I have NX markings without "experimental", and the FAA
      inspector was ambivalent about that. Sooner or later I'll run into one who
      isn't...

      Terry and Gary and others,
      I just got my Airworthiness inspection a couple of weeks ago. I went through the
      same discussion with the DAR and the FAA. I have X in the number and dont have
      experimental on the airplane. Having a copy of the FAR in the airplane is just
      a good idea. I have one mine. 
      The only problem is adjusting the weight and balance for the paperwork ;0)

      Good reminder Terry and good attachment to the post.
      
      
      Back in 1998 when my FAA/MIDO inspector came out to do my airworthiness ins
      pection I printed out a copy of the FAR that allows
      
      for the NX and he was surprised to learn about that hidden gem.
      
      
      One item with using NX is that the X appears nowhere in the FAA records so 
      when registering or looking up, selling or buying the X doesn't
      
      have any role----it is only an aircraft marking that takes the place of the
       big, now unnecessary EXPERIMENTAL.
      
      
      Good post.

      Thanks, Andy. You are very kind! 
      
      Yes, I get a lot of compliments at the airport, but I find that all very
      humbling as I consider myself fortunate beyond measure for having the
      opportunity to build this plane. There are so many who, for various reasons,
      do not have the time, money, situation, etc., will never have that
      opportunity, or may take an incredibly long time to completion. I'm
      currently re-building a damaged Baby Ace, which grew up in the same era as
      the Piet, but just doesn't seem to have the same mystique. 
      
      I'm sure I asked my share of questions to this list, but found that
      searching through the archives yielded hours' worth of good reading that
      would often take me in directions that were unrelated but equally useful.
      Same for westcoatpiet. Looking through all those pictures helped me to
      quickly solidify an opinion about what I liked and what I didn't; rounded
      corners on the tail parts, or not; tall wheels?; taller cabanes, or
      turtledeck? Deck angle? Cowling appearance? The list goes on...
      
      Color choice is something that will come sooner or later, but I think the
      building process needs to be started with your vision of aesthetics, if that
      is important to you.
      
      I look forward to hearing of your progress,

      That's exactly what I did.  I didn't have a DAR, but an inspector from the
      FSDO, whom I thought should know the regs.  Just in case I carried a copy of
      the FARs with that one highlighted.  Good thing I did.  When he challenged
      me, I just showed him the book and he grunted and said "learn something new
      every day".

      I don't know how adding dihedral could irritate the purists. It says to add some
      to the three piece wing right in the 'official' manual.
      
      *SNAP* The three piece wing must not be pure either. [Shocked]

      Terry, thanks for the post.  I copied the FAR and plan to keep it in the
      same place with the other paper work.  I just today sent off the paperwork
      to get my Piet registered.  It will be NX10003.  I have had the 10003
      reserved for a few years.  It was the lowest all-number registration
      available when I reserved it.  Am getting excited about the possibility of
      finishing my plane, getting it inspected, and flying it for the first time
      before the snow flies next winter.  Notice that I said, "Possibility!"

      lot82@hotmail.com>=C2-In the April 2015 issue of Kitplanes in the "Ask th
      e DAR" section, the writer suggests that all pilots of aircraft utilizing t
      he NX markings without the word "experimental" on the aircraft carry a copy
       of CFR_45.22b to show any FAA inspector who questions them on it.=C2-In 
      case anyone needs/wants a copy, I have attached a copy below. I reduced the
       font to get it all on one page. I plan on doing just that and using the NX
       markings on my Pietenpol. It sounds like a good practice to me, since it c
      omes from a DAR.=C2-Just thought I would save forum members the time of l
