Amateur Built Kit Listing
Amateur Built Kit Listing
Amateur Built Kit Listing
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.
Those publications and other information pertaining to amateur-built experimental aircraft are available online at
http://www.faa.gov/aircraft.
