You should only have to apply for a change to the operating limitations

the old ones specify an airport from which you have to operate. If that's

amended operating limitations to reflect new base airport, radius and
whatever aspects apply locally. I am assuming that you already meet the
requirements to fly the a/c, which vary quite a bit depending on the
aircraft.

The categories are I through IV and they apply to all experimental
exhibition aircraft, not just warbirds. Category IV is the most
restrictive.


Not all warbirds are Experimental Exhibition either. I take it you are
buying a vodka rocket?


I suppose that needs to be pointed out, of course. Few people know, for
example, that some P-51's operate under standard airworthiness certificates,
for example.

I'm not buying anything, I'm trying to get my BD-5J's airworthiness
certificate issued. FAA is not exactly very cooperative, and there are no
DAR's here. I'm getting it sorted out, plane's been ready for the final
condition inspection for weeks now, but lack of a place where I can take it
to get it inspected, and lack of cooperation from the weather, keeps putting
things off.
