Hey group,

   I am having to jump thru all sorts of hoops to get an airworthiness certificate on a turbine IVP.

   To name a few:

         Approved airworthiness inspection program on the engine
         Approved airworthiness inspection program on the airframe
         Approved airworthiness inspection program on the propeller
         A type certificate for me, the pilot, on an experimental airplane?
             (in lieu of this, an LOA on the pilot)
          Various other BS items....................
    Have any of the other turbine owners had problems like this.    I live in the Dallas- Fort Worth Area in the GREAT STATE OF TEXAS (Home of George Bush)
