Gary,
You may be confused about the 50%. It is well explained in Kit Planes
magazine. The 50% applies to the build of the airplane. If you take over a
project that is over 50% amateur built by anyone it qualifies, the builder
doesn't have to be you. If you want a repair certificate for working on the
airplane you have to be listed as the builder when it is certified. They
explained a case where someone took over a project that had already
received an N number with another builder listed as the main builder. Even
though the buyer who took over the project did more than 50% he could not
get a repair certificate but he could get amateur built status on the
airplane. I just think you might be looking at the wrong criteria for your
objective.
