Aircraft Certification

When filling out "Form 8050-88 Affidavit of Ownership for Amateur-built Aircraft" if my aircraft is experimental do I check box 2- More than 50% of the above-described aircraft was built from a kit and I am the owner. The bill of sale from the kit manufacturer is attached. (This option is for aircraft eligible for amateur built certification.) Or box 3- I certify that the above-described aircraft is a newly built non-type certificated aircraft and is not correctly registered in another country. (This option is for aircraft eligible for experimental certification other than amateur built.)

Just not sure which one to chose.

Thanks

Built from plans under 51% rule by an amateur builder - Box 1.

Built from a kit under 51% rule by an amateur builder - Box 2.

Not built under 51% rule by an amateur builder (new) - Box 3.

Not built under 51% rule by an amateur builder (used) - Box 4.

Yours is amateur built from a kit, and presumably at least 51% by an amateur, so you use box 2.

This of course assumes we're talking about your 750 STOL.

Thanks Bob, yes I'm referring to my CH750. I filled out the form with box 2 checked. I wanted to be sure it is an experimental category.
