It also depends on how far you want to ferry the plane. 50 or 100 miles

then probably no problem. No FSDO is going to give you a ferry permit

to go 1000 miles back to your home airport for an annual. They'll just

tell you to get the annual locally.




The FAA cannot dictate where you will annual an airplane. And yes, you
can get a ferry permit to fly coast to coast if neccessary.

Sure they CAN, all they have to do is not issue the ferry permit. And
yes most FSDOs will give fairly long distance permits.

The FAA will not withhold a ferry permit "because we want to". As long as an A&P confirms AD's are complied with and signs the logbook as well as the ferry permit the FAA could care less.

BS. The FAA can and does withhold a ferry permit so you can get an
annual 1000 miles away. There's no reason to issue a ferry permit for
an annual that far away. Get it done closer. You have no inherent
right to have your plane annualled at a certain location. One location
is as good as the next.

LOL! After doing this for the past 35 years as an A&P/IA as well as a pilot this is a new one. Maybe you can site for me in the FAR's or the Airworthiness Inspectors Handbook the reference for your remark?

Go ahead and believe what you want, but it's simply not true.

BTW, years ago I picked up an Aztec in Arizona (out of annual) and ferried it (on a ferry permit) to Tennessee.

You have a right to take your airplane anywhere you want. Once again, please provide the reference to back up such an inane remark.
