Apparently the San Jose FSDO has a procedure for flipping the Pegasus
to an experimental registration that allows you to fly past 3000
hours. Contact BASA (www.flybasa.org) for more info.

I've heard a rumor that there is a pending resolution to the Pegasus Service
Life issue. Does anybody know anything?

Thanks,

It would be interesting to hear how the San Jose FSDO is accomplishing
the life limit extension.

I had been interested in buying a Pegasus and approched the FSDO in
Indianapolis for information on exactly the same issue, Using the
Experimental certification to overcome the Life Limit. I was told by
FSDO personnel that the Life Limit would remain the same no matter how
the aircraft was certified.

Though there is sometimes enough differences between FAA Offices and
Inspectors interpretation of the regs that one FSDO may do something
that another would not.

There has been discussion with the FAA regarding the use of
experimental certification of the Pegasus to exceed the life limit.
One risk is that once you go that route, you may not be able to go
back to STD certification easily if the issue is resolved.

Be aware that if you go to your FSDO and say "the XX FSDO is doing
this...." there is an equal probability that either your FSDO will do
the same or they will contact the XX FSDO and XX will cease doing it.
So be careful what you say and how you say it, the guys in the XX FSDO
region will thank you.
