I have a quick question...searchbar failed me, so I'm going to ask.
I know that part of the "pull" of experiemental airplanes is reduced maintainence costs, because you can do the work yourself. Can you buy a "certified" airplane (Cessna, Piper, whatever) and then "convert" it to experimental by doing the maintainence work yourself?
I ask because this would get me into the air a lot quicker than building a plane.
If I understand things properly, going that route would make it so that I could never have it be "certified" status again, which would have a large impact on resale value.
Is this possible?
Thanks for any replies!
