    There is a Dave Blanton V6 project on barnstormers for sale right now. Is there any chance of ever getting these projects signed off when completed?

    If it has an Airworthyness Cert you're golden. Out of registration not a big deal. If its never been registered it's gonna be hard to get it EAB. Ex Exhibition would be about the only way.

    Just fill out the Amateur Built Fabrication and Assembly Checklist

    https://www.faa.gov/aircraft/gen_av/...syCklistFW.pdf

    That tells you and the DAR that you meet the major portion. Just remember, you can’t claim any work done on assemblies that were part of a previously certified aircraft.

    Can you share your breakdown on assembly and fabrication checklist?
