Or if option #1 and #2 fail, option #3 is to go ahead and build the dang thing. In the U.S., the fed's don't care who or how much you paid someone for the plans, if they are registered or not, how many aircraft were built from them, etc. and the insurance company could give a hoot either. If you are planning to use a "non-aircraft" engine most insurance companies won't talk to you anyway. You will most likely register the aircraft with your name and pick any number you like. I registered my as a "Larry Flesner" built and used the serial number of the plans for the A.C. serial number but I could have used my social security number or just the number 1 if I wanted. Mine is registered as a "KR 2 Modified". I wanted to make the changes I made obvious in case something ever happened the entire KR design would not be questioned. Do you best to comply so your conscience is clear and move on with life. Larry Flesner
