David, I reserved my N number years ago and at that time the Feds notified the state that I had done so. I got a letter from the county asking me to pay tax on my airplane. I sent them a nice letter stating that I was building an experimental plane and that the registration number was part of the process. I had not yet received my airworthyness certificate so I didn't have an airplane yet. They accepted my explaination and I didn't hear from that county again. Several years later we moved and I updated my address with the FAA. Again I got a letter from my new county asking me to pay taxes on the plane. I sent the same letter the second time to the new county and have not heard anything again. I live in GA so your results may vary but the "it ain't an airplane without an airworthyness certificate" explaination worked for me.

I have noticed that someone is still building and has their N number reserved? Was reading through the archives..... Can the government really tax on an experimental? How much are people paying in tax?
