Building the first of a new type
Hi
As the title suggests, I am contemplating building a wooden aircraft that has not been built before. The design is complete and is based on an existing approved type.
Could somebody tell me what the process and likely cost would be to get this aircraft on a permit to fly once it is built.
I read in the LAA magazine about the Flitzer and the owner saying he would never go through that process again. Is it that onerous and expensive?
