Bob - I left out the word "previously" when I copied 43.1 - but it
doesn't really change anything, it still means the same. Let's read it
again...


Jim, thanks for taking the time to clarify, I do appreciate it!

I just talked with Suzy out there to order some paint.....now I can't
find the phone number that I wrote down. And, I can't find PolyLux
anywhere on the internet. Must be a small company.

Anybody got the phone number to PolyLux?

The last tine I synched my phone with Outlook, it was (323)269-7229

Thanks, Bob K.

So, your understanding of the rule is correct - we're just boring the
hell out of RAS with this academic discussion is all. This really is
academic because I've personally never seen this applied in the case
of a glider; I believe the rule exists only to keep the aircraft that
are temporarily in experimental R&D or Exp. Show Compliance under part
43 while they fly off the test flight requirements.

Sorry if I mislead you earlier,

This is NOT boring for me. It is a subject near and dear to my
heart. When I bought my 'Experimental' glider, I had no idea of the
ramifications. Knowing what I know now (or believe), I will NEVER own
a TC'd glider.
Your discussion has clarified/confirmed the conclusion another LVVSA
member came to after hours of research.
Many Thanks!

I have to echo this as well. I find RAS vastly informative AND
entertaining! I also will never own a TC'd glider (again). When the
HP-24 is done the plan is for her to be my retirement ship. I'll be
able to do all the work myself and stay as far away from the local A&I
as I can. Of course I have friends who are A&P's and I will always
have a second pair of eyes to look the ship over.

On a subject mentioned earlier in this thread, I believe you can
register a TC'ed glider as Experimental. My basis for this conclusion
is that many ASW-27s are registered Experimental despite being TC'ed.
Also, I once had an LS-3 that was registered Experimental despite being
TC'ed.
