Default airworthiness certificate

You'll need to submit a Program Letter to your local FSDO. This letter
will describe the ship, list its home field (your base of operations),
the types of flights planned, i.e., "fly at the Seniors Competition", 30
practice flights of 4 hours duration to maintain currency, etc. You can
work out with your FSDO representative what is required in your letter.
You'll have to submit a new letter each year. It's not a big deal.

Send me your email address and I'll send you a copy of letter which
worked for my experimental glider.

I am shopping for a glider. Today I looked at a 304 That is in very good shape, current on its annual. The type is experimental. The certificate in the cockpit stipulates that the glider is to be operated from a single airfield. Is this normal? Will faa hassle me were I to purchase and register it and wish to fly out of a different field? Do airworthiness certificates typically specify that an aircraft only fly out of one location?

Many thanks for any enlightenment.
