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.

Assuming it is licensed Experimental- Exhibition and Air Racing you should be able to get your local FSDO to provide new operating limitations that conform to the latest standards. Operating limitations are a prt of the airworthiness certificate. Current standards allow for operating at sites other than home base as long as they are on your annual program letter.
