RAA rego

Recommended Posts

I asked the same question on behalf of a friend who had let his RAA registration, membership & certificate lapse due to medical reasons, but wanted to put the aircraft back on the register to get it sold.

 

This was the response from tech at RAA "You don't need to be a member to register an aircraft, we have many aircraft owners who do not fly their aircraft but wish to be the listed owner on our database."

I assume that if the original reg number hasn't been cancelled, it can still be used years later after a restoration??

RAAus regn numbers are not to be reissued - causes all sorts of problems that one.

any iarframe with a regn number keeps it though all time

How do you keep your interim reg,. No,., If the powers to be say "you have to go onto a different category 95-10 xxx to 95-19xxx or 95-24xxx"

 

Perhaps we have to have both "the old number and the new" 95-10-24-19xxx.

Well all Reg remain in sequences so 10-356 will remain in the 10- series. And even though 32- will be moved into two or three series the new tech manual retains a grandfather clause on regn display so it would be illogical to not have grandfathered on existing regn issued

It will be for the going forward airframes that new regn series apply.

(Posted this earlier but it never appeared - apologies if it turns up twice)

 

Except for the very early days - the rego number was unique eg 1234, regardless of the prefix eg 10-1234 but no 19-1234, 32-1234 etc. So in theory an aircraft could be moved to another category eg 24E-1234, 19-1234 (as happened with factory built and later de-registered and re-categorised planes like the Ibis).

 

However, in the early days of the AUF they issued the same number with different prefixes. Most of these problems have been retired, but it is possible to find 10-1234 & 19-1234. Our Wheeler Scout had its number changed, possibly in an attempt to get a unique number, or maybe just an administrative mistake. Remember, in the early days, the AUF was run by volunteers who probably didn't have much time and didn't envisage how big the fleet would become, or the advent of computer databases.

 

There is a long thread about how 10-0001 got hijacked, if you want to search for it. A brief thread here Sequential Aircraft Rego Numbers

A quote from Heon

 

" when you apply for a number it is allocated for a year. The fee you pay is valid for only 3 months. Why?

 

why cannot unused numbers not be reused? We have 3000 odd aircraft with 10000 available numbers under current system! If a bloke takes "years" to build, if he fails to renew yearly, reallocate the number ESPECIALLY since he CANNOT select the number he wants now APPARENTLY".

 

Answer: After you pay for the interim rego No., It Should still be the same even if you take an extraordinary time, until you( the payee) relinquishes it back to RAA.

 

And if Factory built aircraft Are now on the 95-10 register, how did they get passed the 51% rule,

 

also if the 51% rule can be bent, why can't the same trick be used to get the list of past 15 HB builder's back onto the RAA register!.
