You definitley need permission from the FAA to remove or attach a dataplate. It's in the regs. The rest of that is pretty sketchy. The process could take months or years. Why be a slave to bureaucracies when you could buy another plane and be flying.

At the end of the day, the manufacturer has to issue a new data plate so what the FAA says has little value. If the manufacturer is out of business, you're SOL. I've been through the process with an owner to have Cessna issue a new dataplate. Never again. They can make it impossible to comply.

not really. Nobody in the FAA is qualified to do forensics on a number stamp anyway. The point is it can be faked. Data plates can be faked as well. The FAA mentions it in an AC.

Submit FCC Form 605 through electronic filing in ULS. There is no proof of passing certificate requirement for an RR. Per Public Notice DA 15-72, the FCC no longer mails license authorizations. If you provide an email address on your application, a link to print your official copy of your...

anybody can stamp a number on a steel tube.

That's because it's not a venting problem, never has been. The position of the vent tube specified in the service manual is to minimize ice accumulation.

I say just have them drink 2 cups of coffee then turn 'em loose.

Save yourself a lot of trouble. It's due to uncoordinated flight. One day someone will install an engine that rotates in the other direction and suddenly it will be the right wing drawing first.

If it was a Lark I'd go for it. Darter? Meh.

But it was an intentional shut down, distinct from stoppage

I agree with the others that say it has to be a motor vehicle action to be reportable but unless you make better life choices you're well on your way to a hims program./

what is an "underage?" You have to be a certain age to walk home?

Because the desired mandate says any in-flight engine stoppage be reported without consideration to intentional or not.

reported to whom? And what about intentional engine stoppages, like during training?

agree on getting the noise abatement not only so you know what to do, but to make sure someone doesn't startle you in the pattern. Otherwise you might make an azz out of yourself like a long ago prolific webboard participant.

Bought 4 planes, never done a prebuy beyond my own investigation.

How long do I have to wait for the explanation? I'm not a young fella you know . . .

How does one abandon an airplane? Send in the registration to the FAA and tell them you are abandoning the plane? Otherwise, all these planes have an owner, somewhere.
