Howcome he can't just have an FAA inspector come out and certify it
to his (the inspector's) own standards?

Thanks,
Rich
Because it would cost a fortune and take a year or so and use up
several "examples". It's a "type approval".

Ok, how about reflectors on enemy craft, vehicles?


How much crap do you think you can hang from a plane and still fly
it? Try again.

yeah, I didn't specify RF or Light did I ?
So how do you arrive at light since we are
talking RF ?
Last time I knew, RF can be reflected .


Like everything else you "KNOW"?

Those private companies got around that somehow.The guy with the T-38 has
his flying.
Maybe the FAA is just jerking your neighbor around.
There are more than two ways to get an aircraft flight certified. Checkout
how to get things like a "longeasy" get flight certified.

Well duh, the inspector does not get to choose the standards to apply. That
gets defined on the certification request itself. Like the differences
between a personal drivers license, and a commercial drivers license.

You don't have an absolute right of any freedom. It's an impossible
wish.


Society has the right to protect itself. We may not agree with what
we're being protected from but society has to have that right.

A society has a "right" to exist only to the extent that it protects the
rights of the ordinary individuals within it. When that is replaced by
coercion it should be toppled. See the "patriot act".
Well, there you got me. ;-)

See above. Vote them out.


Why do you believe so in absolutes?
There are some absolutes, they are called physical laws. For normal
terrestrial surface speeds, Newton's laws are completely correct.
Mathematics is all about absolutes, and Math is the language of physics.

For some chance at some real enlightenment carefully read "The Abolition
of Man" by C. S. Lewis.

If you have really solid math skills and really solid reasoning skills you
can start from mere observation and arrive at "the Dao" at the end of the
previously mentioned book. I did just that myself, surely others can.

Whether you believe "it should be toppled" or not is irrelevant to
said society. If you can topple it, great, but chances are it is you
who will be toppled. That's just the way it is.

Now you're being stupid. BTW, newton's laws are not correct. They
don't include relativity.

There are no absolute rights. The second amendment is not absolute.
Neither is the first, nor any other.

Is that quote, out of context (as they all are when used in such a
simplistic manner), supposed to make you look "enlightened"?

Oh, you're now back to "moron".

Just more vitriol, not responding to the actual content. BTW what quote?
The quotation marks are being used to delimit the title of a book.

I responded to the content. It seems that you didn't feel it was
necessary.

Why don't you use _underlines_ like everyone else?

Apparently I wasn't clear - I should have said, "certify it to FAA
standards", I guess. I mean, if it was military-grade, it should certainly
be flyable! (unless it's been cut up and lashed together, which I had
never heard of until that other poster mentioned it).

Thanks,

My next door neighbour bought an ex-military helicopter for his own
private use. It turns out that the military version is specified
differently
from the civilian one, so the commercial type airworthiness certificate
doesn't apply, it can't be used for commercial purposes, so he got
it cheap (for helicopter size versions of "cheap" ;-)

It should be certifiable as "experimental" i.e. home made.

He has it certified of course, _for private use only_.
He could not fly it otherwise.

It cannot be used for _commercial_ purposes as it is different
from the _commercial_ version, and the _type_ certificate of
airworthiness obtained by the manufacturer for the _commercial_
version does not apply. "Type" refers to the make, model and
version of the aircraft.
