Guys and Gals,

I am new to the homebuilt world and I have researched the regulations and would love your thoughts and guidance.

I recently bought a used Kitfox IV-1050. I am the 3rd owner. The guy before me performed all of the maintenance himself and logged most of the major work in the logbooks.

He routinely got condition inspection by a certified A&P with IA signature authority.

Question... can I legally work on my Kitfox? I am aware of the LSA 16 and 120 hour courses but I don't think that applies to a registered homebuilt unless you took the opportunity to get your Kitfox re-registered as an LSA.

If I cannot work on the aircraft what do I need to do about all of the prior non-legal work so that be assured that my insurance company won't void my coverage in the event I need it someday.

Would love dialogue on this topic.
