I am not an expert on copyrights, but there are several in my name, so I do have a bit of knowledge...once you buy the blueprints, they are yours! If you choose to give them away, cut them up, or share them, thats OK. It is probably implied, that the blueprints include a license to build one (1) plane. but AS LONG AS YOU DO NOT PROFIT FROM THEIR EFFORTS...IT'S PROBABLY LEGAL....Sorry, but morals and ethics are not taken into consideration.

I have several dumb questions to ask about plans. I have 2 sets, 1 from 1975 with a serial # and 1 from 1984 with no number. It has been advised that I contact Jeanette Rand and have my name transferred to the numbered plans. Do you have to have a set of plans registered to you in order to build a legal, registered airplane? What prevents a person from copying a set of plans and using them for construction? Ethics perhaps? Would a new set of plans have noticeable improvements over the ones I have and would it be advantageous to order said plans? Please answer on or off net to my e-mail address. Still looking for a fixed main gear to replace the retracts.
