Don't forget to adddres what happens to the AD system. I don't think it was in your proposal but maybe I missed it. If they stick the plane into an experimental-like category then perhaps they will give up on ADs entirely. After all, if the Canadian proposal is as liberal as it sounds, then there would be no point in issuing ADs or their Canadian equivalent since they might not be able to make them mandatory, and they sure couldn't enforce them even if they were. It is bad enough as it is, with mechanics signing off planes with outstanding ADs - it could become a lost cause, and that might not be good on a plane that will be 60 or 70 years old! I like the idea of owner maintenance but I think of some people who won't spend $350 a year including the annual, now they are just going to really be flying some trash, which will not help the insurance situation when they wreck. I wonder if the ever tighter insurance companies will even insure an owner-maintained factory plane when they first switch the system over. Glen Ward
