Okay, Forgive me if this sounds dumb, but I am very new to the Experimental
Idea.

1)you build it from the kit the FAA says "yeap looks good here is you
experimental cert" (after flight test etc...)

2)Can you fly a homebuilt IFR??? What is actually required to do this? I
know you need airspeed rate of turn and all that... but do the instruments
need to be TSO'd??? or can they be generic ??? VFR I would say
NON-TSO'd...  IFR I keep getting confused ..I assume you MUST have the
static check done, so does that mean the instruments must be TSO'd???

3) Aerobatics: Can you fly a homebuilt acrobatically??? (aka Lancair Legacy
2000) I know it is limited in G's but All I really want to do are loops,
roll, easy stuff.

3b) in above reference to number 3 the FARS say that you can not
intentionally exceed 30 degrees of pitch or 60 degrees of bank with out
wearing parachutes (unless required for a certificate being sought) Does
this apply  the same to the experimental category????

Basically, I guess what I am asking is what FAR's defiantly apply to
homebuilts aka Lancair and what does not and what is in the Grey area?

Thank you for your help in advance
a possible future Lancair Legacy Builder-Owner
Jeff
