I have succumbed to big brother and decided that I will register my Mk ll as E-LSA so I can go check my cows without breaking any laws or being illegal. I am pleasantly suprised that the process will be fairly simple it seems... ....I have my EAA pack and will be sending my paperwork in, in an a day or two. The max weight for the Mkll is 750 lbs. (I did not build the plane but I have the builders manual and weight and balance sheet) I asked my DAR that I have secured for this adventure if I could raise the Max weight to 830lbs. He said I could, but it would be a good idea to ask other Mkll owners if any of them had registered at more than 750lbs and had flown and determined a higher max weight was safe...I guess my question is, has anyone else registered their Mkll at more than 750 lbs max weight and how do the members of this list feel about it?...Thanks in advance for your help....Mike

Mike, big bro doesn`t care what you raise it to.Claim 1500 if you want, but
during your 5 hour phase one flight testing, (after you get your
airworthiness cert), you will put in the A/C log books, the limits at which
you flew it & then you will sign off on it, for instance, if you list VNE at
100, then only flew it to 90, that basically what you are saying it has been
tested to & then, you , or the next owners, legally can`t fly it beyond
90.Same with weight, test it to only 900 lbs gross, & thats the new limit.
Thats the way my DAR explained it to me anyhow. Jim
