The point I was trying to make was the bloke has bought an incomplete/not airworthy aircraft and apparently intends to get it airworthy.
If such is the case, and he wants to fly it (or even just taxi it home) I would expect he would have some aeronautical skills and training, along the lines of a PPL at least.
However, I guess he could always bolt it all together with no knowledge, no training, and no skills - and then go for his LAME ticket
and his PPL, all at once.
I await the court appearance with interest, and I would like to see the beaks comments and opinion on the offender.
I strongly suspect this bloke is one of those blokes that we all know, who manage to do everything wrong first, before they find out the right way to go about it.
