Folks,

I'm going to give a dissenting opinion on this whole thing.

When a Lancair goes down and people die, Lancair gets hit with lawsuits. =
 Yes, it is true they aren't considered the manufacturer of these =
airplanes, but do you think that stops lawyers from going after them?  =
You know how informed juries are, considering that there was a case =
where a woman gets a big payout for spilling coffee on herself.  It =
would be na=EFve to think that just because the FAA doesn't consider =
Lancair a manufacturer, doesn't mean that they won't get assigned some =
blame by some misinformed jury.=20

Secondly, I've done some price comparisons between the parts that =
Lancair sells and other outfits, there isn't a huge difference.  They =
certainly charge more in many cases.  However, considering the volume of =
planes Lancair sells, I have a hard time thinking that their parts =
department is a significant contributor to their bottom line.

I could be wrong, and I don't have an inside view, but it appears as =
though Lancair has their parts department more as a service than as =
anything that is really helping the company pay their bills.  It's =
helpful to go somewhere to get stuff that fits my airplane.  There are =
some items I just can't get anywhere else.

Considering the cost of our airplanes, the $300 hardly amounts to a hill =
of beans and I see it as more a formality to help protect Lancair's =
interests.  I don't see it as a problem.  It also gives the insurance =
companies some insight into the Lancairs they are insuring.  I look at =
this as a positive thing that Lancair is doing. =20

Scarcity of insurers will certainly drive up our costs.  I glad they are =
doing things to help keep insurance companies engaged.  It helps in the =
long run.

Joe B. is making a BIG mistake with this policy.  Rest assured that in =

It would seem more important than ever to develop a
new source for these services. Trying to force your
customers to deal with you is a desperate business
decision and one bound to fail. We as Lancair owners
need to strengthen LOBO

Rob pointed out in a previous post that Lancair has changed their =
transfer=20
of ownership policy. I thought it would be a good idea to post the =
paragraph

from that form that regards to their "Transfer Policy". Interesting =
read.. I

guess anybody who buys a used Lancair, of any type, has to have the=20
"Insurance inspection team" check said aircraft.

TRANSFER POLICY
L.I.I. requires that all Lancair International Inc. and Neico Aviation =
Inc.=20
aircraft and /or uncompleted kits which are sold, transferred, bartered, =

donated or in anyway given to any other person, corporation or other =
legal=20
entity other than the original purchaser, shall first pay a $300.00 =
transfer

fee to Lancair International Inc. and agree to sign and return to =
Lancair=20
International Inc. this Resale Agreement prior to having said aircraft=20
registered with L.I.I. and prior to the new owner obtaining technical=20
support, access to Kit Components Inc. for parts purchases, access to =
our=20
builder's site on the web or notification of any service bulletins. =
Further,

the new purchaser of a flying Lancair aircraft or an uncompleted kit, =
and=20
prior to the aircraft being transferred, must agree to have either =
flying=20
Lancair aircraft or upon first flight of an uncompleted kit inspected by =
our

insurance inspection team. The new purchaser must
 also agree to participate in any Lancair endorsed training program. =
Only=20
upon receipt of this agreement and payment of the $300.00 transfer fee, =
will

L.I.I. transfer and update files so that service support can be =
continued.
