My son is a lawyer - he makes a living out of breaking Llc's, so it's only a modicum of protection. If you are the sole owner, I don't see much point in it, but if it's a partnership, then maybe. You ...

I have a Vertical Power 200 in my RV-10, and it has runaway trim built in as well as trim speeds. Not sure if the VPX still has it.

Every 4 cycle engine regardless of number of cylinders has a non-power stroke.How much heavier was that LS1 engine? Perhaps that has something to do with the shimmy or not.


The LS1 was 15 pounds ...

An LLC is a waste of time for an individual, but is handy for a partnership. As far as the tax man, they will find out when the LLC changes names, or owners. Everything is done by computers, now.

What is so different between a Luscombe or a C-140, besides a few pounds?

One engine versus four, and the Jetstar is probably not flying anymore.

The way I read it, it's just for overhaul shops working on PCU5000s, if they get one. It's not a recall.
