Rather than build on the old thread which you can find here, there is a reference to a new announcement out of EAA headquarters today that should be good news for everyone - not only does the EAA support the majority of the FAA's clarification on hangar use (which many of us agree with), they are going to advocate a change to the language that many of us objected to. In today's press release, they said:
"EAA will ask the FAA to consider all active aircraft construction as an aeronautical activity. We believe any type of active homebuilding meets the standard of aeronautical activity and EAA will fight for that language.?
The whole release is here. The docket link here: http://www.regulations.gov/#!searchResults;rpp=25;po=0;s=FAA-2014-0463;fp=true;ns=true
Getting this clarification was the work of a number of folks and numerous emails and discussions with EAA headquarters over the past several days. People who have not yet commented on the proposed clarification on the government dockett are encouraged to do so!
