C of A

The C of A, before it ever leaves, or any registration things happen is INCREDIBLY important. There were a bunch of Allouettes brought into this country and not all of them had the C of A with them. They all got N numbers, things went fine for years, then the FAA grounded all of them, until the C of A could be resolved. Some ended up with standard AW cert, some ended up with Experimental Exhibition cert. In today's FAA, they'd ground you, and never look back.

BTW, there are some aircraft coming for auction, they are CLT, and a bit faster than a Defiant.
They climb pretty good, too

No FOD on the rear prop.

They get off the ground in 1630 feet, so naturally I was interested.
