I really hate to have to ask this, but this is obviously the forum to have the question answered.
In all of my online queries about FAA regulations on the subject of an individual designing, building, and flying his own LSA, all I can find is information on kit building and certification.
Can someone point me in the right direction? I need to know if the construction methods I'm planning on using, which may be somewhat unconventional in some respects, are permissible so that I dont' find myself in a pickle somewhere down the road with a contraption I've invested a lot of time and money in that I'll never be allowed to fly.
And if there is a clearly defined path for this approach, what is it? Is it clearly defined and documented? Where can I find it?
Any help is much appreciated.
