    Buying an experimental that has been deregistered and is in pieces.

    Thank you guys for the replies. I just spoke with the owner. He is not the original owner. He just had it in his garage for 5 years. Basically the original owner built the plane and flew it. He died. The airplane was deregistered for liability reasons. Now the airplane has no avionics, no...

    Buying an experimental that has been deregistered and is in pieces.

    Hello everybody. I recently came upon an experimental aircraft (BD4) that has been deregistered. The airplane has been flown before. It also has an airworthiness certificate, and a data plate installed inside. The aircraft needs a lot of work. It is not flyable now. It's basically in pieces. It...

Not too far from me, but far enough to not keep my plane there hehe I have 47N so close to my house that I can see the beacon at night :) Unfortunately with having trees at both ends of the runway, and virtually no place to land...

    Challenger II VFR night flying? Rotax engine question.

    Thank you for the replies! They cleared up my biggest worries. I love the fact that anybody can work on experimental aircraft. This is one of the reasons I'm looking at the Challenger. I could add some $$$ and buy a 152 but it is just too expensive to operate. What always pushed me away from...

    Challenger II VFR night flying? Rotax engine question.

    Hello, I've been trying to find the answer to my question all over the internet but so far no luck so I'm just gonna throw it out there. Can a Challenger II be flown at night VFR legally? I have a PPL, so night flying would be legal from the license perspective. With that out of the way, lets...

    Hello from New Jersey! I'm on a mission to buy a Challenger II...

    Hello, my name is Jake. I'm almost 22 years old and I live in NJ. I got my pilots license at the age of 17- before I got my drivers license! :) I have not flown for the past two years or so, and I feel like it is time to go back. Having my own airplane was always a dream of mine and I am ready...
