  • Revised Listing of Amateur Built Aircraft Kits
    REVISED LISTING OF AMATEUR-BUILT AIRCRAFT KITS Updated on: June 22, 2021 The following is a revised listing of aircraft kits that have been evaluated and found eligible in meeting the “major portion” requirement of Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Part 21, Certification Procedures for Products and Parts, specifically, § 21.191(g). • This listing is only representative of those kits where the kit manufacturer or distributor requested an evaluation by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for eligibility and should not be construed as meaning the kit(s) are FAA “certified,” “certificated,” or “approved.” • There are other aircraft kits that may allow a builder to meet the “major portion” requirement of § 21.191(g), but those manufacturers or distributors have not requested an FAA evaluation. • The placement of an aircraft kit on this list is not a prerequisite for airworthiness certification. • The primary purpose of this listing is to assist FAA Inspectors/Designees and other interested individuals by eliminating the duplication of evaluations for “major portion” determination when the aircraft is presented for airworthiness certification as an “Amateur-Built Experimental.” • Kit manufacturers or distributors whose status is unknown are identified with a question (?) mark and their address has been deleted. Additional Information and Guidance • Advisory Circular (AC) 20-27G, Certification and Operation of Amateur-Built Aircraft. • FAA Order 8130.35B, Amateur-Built Aircraft National Kit Evaluation Team • Contact your local FAA Flight Standards District Office (FSDO) or Manufacturing Inspection District Office (MIDO). Those publications and other information pertaining to amateur-built experimental aircraft are available online at http://www.faa.gov/aircraft.

  • AIRCRAFT SPRUCE KITS COZY MARK IV the Cozy MK IV Is a High-Performance, Four-Seat Canard Aircraft Which Is Comfortable, Efficient, and Economical to Build
    AIRCRAFT SPRUCE KITS COZY MARK IV The Cozy MK IV is a high-performance, four-seat canard aircraft which is comfortable, efficient, and economical to build. It has a range of about 1,000 miles and a top speed of 200 mph. When constructed according to plans and operated within the approval C. G. range, the canard con fig u ra- tion makes it highly resistant to stalls or loss of position control. The MK IV features full dual control and two-axis trim. The composite con struc tion is very strong, resistant to corrosion and fatigue, and offers better protection to the occupants than other types of construction. Aircraft Spruce acquired the Cozy design rights in January 2004 and is now the sole source for Cozy plans and info packs.
