Yes but its ONLY a number you have been allocated, read the fine print, it will say its not a certificate or permission to FLY. You need to find the appropriate category and then get the CofA completed, then, and ONLY, then will you have a REGISTERED aircraft thats approved for FLIGHT.

My aircraft was registered under " AUF " without problems . 95-10-1103 . You can register a broomstick (ask the wife), There is a big difference between being allocated a NUMBER and completing a CofA. The number allocation has NOTHING to do with registration.

It was "technically" taxiing because he was not airborne yet. Nothing to see here. 😉 -

A couple of questions re the Fly Synthesis Texan.
FlyBoy1960 replied to red750's topic in Other Rec Aircraft
From the last I heard the company producing the aircraft was sold because they were making 10 times more money out of making wind turbine blade. Whoever they sold it to is no longer trading, they lasted about 12 months apparently before the money ran out, they have grand designs of revamping everything and reintroducing/remarketing the products but it just didn't happen. The purchaser had no experience in aviation although he flew a Storch locally in Italy. All of this is secondhand from somebody I talked to at the airport but he is normally pretty good with what is happening -
YAWN.. stop posturing. The RA-Aus are in the pooh-pooh because they lied in court, hid information and got caught out. The DPP will pursue them aggressively if they feel there is a case to answer otherwise there is no use in talking about this any further. The part that is worthwhile talking about is the fact that members money and obviously significant time resources for the staff, which come at a cost to the members, have been used/wasted in defending something which should not have happened. Let's say that RA-Aus spent $300,000 so far (this has been reported on this website) then they owe me and each of you who are members an explanation about what is going on and why they have had to spend this amount of money. I would be expecting an explanation even if it was $50,000! It seems that they have not learned anything from the coroner's inquest findings and they are doing exactly the same with the membership by lying with omission about what is going on.

Seems we are playing in an industry of decline in so may ways. 10 years ago there were report and photos everywhere. Now, radio silence.

I thought there may be a lot more information on the site about Avalon with so many people being in Victoria ? Just saying it all looks very quiet down there ?

It's faster from my end 🙂
