Hey Jared. I’m in Edmonton. If you ever find yourself here, you’re welcome to pop buy. I imagine shipping to YZF will be a little wild!

I bought my kit when I lived in Ontario. PST and GST. No duty on aircraft parts.

You won’t deal with TC at all. Just the MDRA. The MDRA website will have all the info you are looking for.

You’re going to have to start your build with a letter of intent, then a precivee inspection (which I think is BS on a fabric plane), and a final inspection for your temp airworthiness certificate
