John,
Yeah, I'd prefer it simply stay as is and be enforced. But that's easier said than done. Unfortunately, since it's out in the open the FAA can't reasonably ignore the issue. That would be tantamount to endorsing the manner in which people are currently applying the regs. So they're left with either changing the rules, or changing how the rules are enforced (or both). Since it's hard to make subtle changes without greatly affecting multiple parts of the regulations themselves, I think the better option is to leave the regs alone and put more effort into enforcement. On the other hand, I'm a bit worried about their intended enforcement of pilots (see http://www.avweb.com/eletter/archives/bizav/1181-full.html#198538).
Unfortunately, there don't seem to be any easy answers...
Cheers, -
Kyrilian

Kyrilian:
I appreciate your comments.
What would YOU tell the FAA at this point. Do you feel that further defining 51% is the solution, or would that just make life for honest builders more difficult?
Would it make sense to leave the regs as they are and just enforce the current guidelines?
John
