Hi Bill
I’m just a grunt, but given the information below, it seems
clear that you own a 415C and I would suggest that further validation is not
required. As I recall, you have an e-mail from the FAA
that confirms this? As I look over our
comments over the last couple of days on this and particularly the preventive
maintenance issue, I think Roy was the most eloquent when he asked the simple
question: Are we over thinking this one?
Thanks Roy,
Bill

In my case, a former owner thought that because the C-75 in his
415C was converted to a C-85 it converted it to a 415D and he filled out
his registration and his bill of sale to the next owner as a 415D. There is no
documentation on file with the FAA of this change and no airworthiness
certificate change. A later owner registered it as a 415C and it was sold to me
as such, long before the light-sport issue arose, and it is registered as such.
