”Thanks to years of EAA’s advocacy efforts, the FAA has unveiled a new program for the use of off-the-shelf parts in type-certificated aircraft. This is the first approval granted under the new Vintage Aircraft Replacement and Modification Article (VARMA) program, the next big step in keeping vintage aircraft flying.”

This is posted on the EAA website in more detail, but wow, this seems like a fantastic opportunity. their test cases were around start and charging parts. It does appear you have to do a 337 for approval, so it’s still up to the FAA for approvals. they are encouraging type clubs to keep records of approvals.

Thank you EAA.
