kit listing, which is available via the
internet to prospective buyers. These kit
evaluations inform prospective
applicants that they could be eligible for
an experimental amateur-built
airworthiness certificate if they
completed their aircraft in compliance
with the FAA-evaluated assembly and
instruction manuals and fabricated and
constructed the aircraft in compliance
with 14 CFR part 21, § 21.191(g).
The method of determining what
constitutes the major portion of
construction has undergone several
changes since the rule was first codified.
When FAA staff developed the
commonly used form 8000–38,
‘‘Fabrication and Assembly Operation
Checklist’’, to calculate major portion,
the intent was that a single check mark
in a column on the form would identify
who did the task. Some manufacturers
and FAA representatives calculate major
portion by using a ‘‘task-based’’
accounting mechanism that incorporates
a ‘‘dual-check’’ system whereby an
amateur-builder may be given shared
credit even if that person does not
complete 50% of the task. When this is
used in practice, the kit manufacturer
and amateur-builder share credit on the
Form 8000–38. It was not envisioned
that credit for a task would be offered
to an amateur-builder simply assisting
in the fabrication and assembly, as is
happening today in some cases.
The FAA will resume amateur-built
kit evaluations after issuing final policy
changes. Prior to publishing the final
policy, FAA will solicit comments on
draft policy, internal orders and
advisory circulars through a notice in
the Federal Register.

Abandonments to abandon a 1.21-mile

UP has certified that: (1) No local
traffic has moved over the line for at
least 2 years; (2) there is no overhead
traffic on the line; (3) no formal
complaint filed by a user of rail service
on the line (or by a state or local
government entity acting on behalf of
such user) regarding cessation of service
over the line either is pending with the
Surface Transportation Board or with
any U.S. District Court or has been
