Anybody have experience with modification of an existing airframe from a regulatory standpoint?
For example, I know that there has been extended wingtip modifications. That seems like a major modification because it could result in much more main spar stress.
With that in mind, and the fact that having a sport plane doesn't mean as much as it did before basic med, if each wing was shortened 14", what would be involved to stay legal?
I like the idea of the Sonex high wing, and Xenos detachable wingtips. I know that Glasair III has something similar.
