The aircraft is a ammature built LSA, if I buy it I have to take the wings off and truck it home and won't re assemble until spring.
Can I get the annual before I take it apart and will that void the inspection? How long are the permits good for?
It seems kinda like a craps shoot to buy it, bring it home and hope a local AP will issue a ferry permit after a tear down, seeing he has to certify it's airworthy for the ferry permit.
Thanks for the help and advice,
Rod
