Experimental question

When I bought my used experimental glider from Texas and brought it to
New Mexico, there were no requirements other than I send a Program
Letter to my local FSDO.

I have a friend at the local FSDO (acquired years after registering my
ship here) and he told me that, when he attended FAA training in OKC, he
was told: "Welcome to Flight Standards, home of 87 independently owned
and operated offices". I have found that to be true, getting different
interpretations of the regulations from different offices.

Your results may vary.

For what it is worth -

I purchased an used experimental glider in November 2014. I dutifully sent in my program letter to my local FSDO in January 2015. Later that month, I received a phone call informing me that because the glider was changing "home FSDOs", I needed a new Special Airworthiness Certificate and Operating Limitations issued by my local FSDO.

The FSDO was great to work with and the process went very smoothly but, it was required before I flew the aircraft.
