Do we anticipate a problem with the RV-10 in the aftermarket? Is there something peculiar about this plane that will prevent certificated mechanics from inspecting or repairing them? I agree that some A&P's will be unwilling - I heard there are shops that WILL NOT work on anything older than 18 years because of liability issues but I believe free market forces will take affect and mechanics will step up to meet demand.

"................As a follow-on to that theory, if the buyer doesn't hold any
certificate, then their plane will need to be inspected by an
A&P....something that some A&P's may not even be willing to do
unless it meets very high standards. In fact, A&P's could be
specifically *required* to hold all homebuilts to some very
high standards. That would put a crimp in the urge for some
buyers to try to buy a ready-made-homebuilt....and instead
favor them buying a certified bird. But it helps us by keeping
that insurance from rising due to someone who doesn't know the
airframe doing improper maintenance.
