When your experimental, amateur built aircraft is inspected and registered with FAA as an experimental, what obligation does one have to inform the FAA of a significant modification? If its all kit parts when certified, does replacing, say, the wings with certified Cessna wings, require updating the FAA?
If I build it and register it with one engine and decide to make it a twin, do I need to update the FAA?
I see lots of certified aircraft that become too expensive to keep or make airworthy in accordance with FAA regs, and I understand that its generally frowned upon to make an E-AB from certified parts. Some of these parts planes could be used as good upgrades to a registered E-AB as long as theres no rule or interpretation against it.
