'LJ:

It can be accomplished with some bureaucratic paperwork...when was it
last licensed in the US? France? Does it currently have an "N" number
on it?

Is it in flying condition at present with a cuurent annual? (I doubt
current license or the AI would have asked these or other questions
about the airworthiness status of the airplane).

'About two years ago I looked at buying a Stampe which had been
completely restored and it's Renault engine OH. The owner had the
aircraft registered with an FAA Experimental/Exhibition ticket. This,
of course, came with all the usual flight restrictions that I didn't
want to live with so I didn't follow through with the purchase. The
owner said the reason the FAA didn't give the aircraft a standard AW
certificate was France and the US didn't have some sort of agreement
which recognized each others' airworthiness standards. I didn't follow
up on this but I'm sure that a call to your local FSDO would help shed
some light on the matter.

It would seem that a US designed aircraft would'nt run into the above
problem, but you know how FAA officials sometimes implode when they
encounter something out of the ordinary.

If you're an EAA member, e-mail their advisors and get the straight
skinny from them. They are incredibly thorough and accurate in all the
advise they've ever given me.

Good Luck

'Leroy,
You may have to take the aircraft through a conformity inspection. That is
not hard to do.

Hello L.J,

I have tried to answer your e-mail, but it did not work. Please try
again.

If your ship has C/N 921, then the AAF number is 43-14957 and the RAF
serial HB683. This is one of the lend lease aircraft who was shipped
to the UK in 1944. At this time it did not have a N-number.

The civilian version of the UC-61K is the model 24R46A as indicated in
Aircraft Specification No A-706.

Regards

Karl Saenger'

'hi L.J.
decided to keep her! let me or Bob know if you need
help with anything, our plane had an N number already,
so it was no problem for us to re register her! It
does have the RAF serial number on the airframe
associated with the N27FM
good luck
