Isn't that how most STCs work? The owner of the STC issues the STC
doc for a specific airplane by serial number. If I buy an STCed
product, it's only good for the serial number of the plane I purchased
it for. I've never heard of STC holders issuing new STC doc for
free, if you moved the product to another airplane. I'd think the
autogas STC folks would probably go broke if you could transfer the
STC without their permission.

Such an odd system. I would think that is safety were the primary concern
it would work by precedent, i.e., once someone demonstrated that a certain
installation of product X in aircraft type Y was safe and effective that
from that point on it would be up to the A&P and/or avionics tech to make
sure the procedure was properly adhered to.


That would be fine if it wasn't so expensive to demonstrate to the FAA that
it is a safe mod.
