Need a bit of advice/information.
Someone in India is looking to buy some new and some used Cessna parts from me - legitimate deal, I know him, no worries there.
What paperwork does DGCA require for new/used aircraft parts imported into India for use on small private aircraft?
I do know that most of CAA/JAA-land requires an FAA 8130 form as proof of airworthiness (old "yellow tag" = "airworthy part") but I have been led to understand that India may not require this as the 8130 is mostly used in Euroland.
What duties is he likely to have to pay, any tips on getting through customs, declarations required, basically I'm looking for an overview of how the paperwork end of this works.
Any help or advice is appreciated, he's stuck and wants to fly again with as little hassle, paper-pushing and expense as possible (don't we all!).
Best Regards,
Echo Mike
