Thanks Richard,=0A=C2-=C2-=C2- I need to read up on exactly what a EA
B registration is and what places it in that catagory.=C2- I knew it woul
d have to be registered non-standardly if the Constant Speed Prop were used
, but I was unsure of which exact catagory it would fall under.=0A=0AThank

ay, Per FAR 1, Definitions, an LSA of any type cannot have an inflight adju
stable propeller.=C2- =0AAlso, unless Zenith is willing to build and cert

.190=C2-and give you the necessary documentation to meet=C2-FAR 21.193e
you cannot register it as an ELSA (Experimental Light Sport Aircraft) per
FAR 21.191i(2). You can, however, register it as EAB (Experimental Amateur
Built) per FAR 21.191g.=0A=0ARick Girard=0A=0A=0AOn Thu, Mar 18, 2010 at 9:

m wondering if the Jabiru 2200 /w 85HP and Airmaster would show noticeable
improvements in average cruise speed, climb, takeoff, to handle as well as
=C2-the aircraft just fitted with a Jabiru 3300 with no constant speed pr

h engines with horsepowers in the range of 80 to 125 HP, but I would consid
er the 85HP Jabiru 2200 if it were fitted with an Airmaster AP420 if Consta
nt Speed propeller if I could be shown to get the economy of a 4 stroke (4g
als/hr) engine, with the assurance of no sluggish handlings on take-off or
climbs.=C2- I was told I would have to register such a plane with an
Airmaster as an Experimental-LSA as opposed to just an Amateur Built-LSA.
=C2- I=99m not certain of the repercussions, cons or pros of regist
ering a plane one way or another, but for the sack of fuel economy and depe
ndable power when needed, I=99m toying with this idea of a CH-750 wit
h a Jab 2200 engine and an Airmaster AP420 Constant Speed Propeller combo.
=C2- I would appreciate any word, rumors etc on this topic and realize th
at such a combo would be rare here in the States, but may not be unusual in
Australia, New Zealand or Tasmania since both the Jabiru and Airmaster are
products of that region. =0A>=C2-=0A>Jay Parker=0A>=0A>=0A>ist" target
