Certificate of Registration

Yesterday was a good day - received the Certificate of Registration for C-GVSW.


I submitted all the paperwork on Sun, Feb 11, and received the CofR on Tue, Mar 12.  Usual turn around time is ~2 months.  But the real win is they accepted all the paperwork first time!

I had heard horror stories about this, but it all went pretty smooth.

It's now a REAL airplane!  But in pieces... but not for long!

"Mark" Reservation (aka callsign)

 Today I received the confirmation that my project "mark" has been reserved by Transport Canada!


Next step is registration, which will hopefully happen next year.
