Thanks, Nev! In defence of Turweston, they're prioritising work that keeps
planes in the air or gets them there in the first place - so I suspect
that's the reason things aren't moving quickly: he's already in the air!
Cheers,
Jeremy

Hi Jez,,
That would be Norbert Schmit, a U.S citizen, now based at Nottingham.
He built it under the supervision of Flightcrafters [ Bob and Russell] and
Andy Draper and myself signed off his ''log book'' [ not the P.F.A. blue
book]
at the various inspection stages.
It was allways his intention to bring it over here, so he tried to play it
''by the rules''.
He is at the moment trying to get it on the U.K. register, he had a waiver
to fly it from the CAA whilst it was on the ''N'' number, they have been
very
helpfull [ for a change ?]
It had 40 odd hours on it when it was shipped over, I did the ''final
inspection'', and effectively an annual inspection on it, very nicely put
together
and maintained..........
The paperwork seems to have ground to a halt at a place very close to
Silverstone.........................
Cheers,
Nev.
P.S. It is a trigear / 914.
