Jim Weir: I believe that you made reference to an exemption from personal
property tax assessment on the basis of less than 5 aircraft of a specific
model being made? Can you provide a reference to the tax code where that
is defined? (I hope that this applies to California??)

It DOES apply in California. Get the information on "historic aircraft"
from your tax collector. You pay a one-time fee of $35 (per county
based) and have to agree to display it to the public at least 12 days
per year.

Doesn't have to be less than 5 made, it just needs to be "antique" and
for you to display it 12 times a year. I'm rusty on the years they
consider "antique" in California, maybe 35 years old or older. I used
to get the exemption on my Ercoupes.
