It will be worth the money and save you a lot of hassle in the long

Hey, I'm in the tax business, and I'll take fees for as many hours of
research a client can tolerate. These are real oddball taxes and
99.99% of tax practitioners will be clueless "off the top of the
head." From stories told me in our State, they just want a
reasonable-looking number and then they go away. For many
scratch-built homebuilts, the Dow Jones avg for the day may look good.
In my case (State of Michigan) I have to pay sales tax when I register
the plane. This can get really confusing IF you apply for an N#
through the feds now and register the plane in 10 years.
