Hi Doc,

The following is quoted from the EAA May 11,07 newsletter. You might
want to forward it to you friend. If you do please note the EAA source

*"In a related matter,* the FAA recently issued clarifying language to
FAA Policy 8130.2 (Change 3) stating that parts from type-certificated
aircraft are not approved for use in amateur-built aircraft. The
language reads: "A rebuilt, altered, or repaired type-certificated
aircraft DOES NOT meet the intent of § 21.191(g) and DOES NOT meet the §
21.191(g) requirement that the major portion of the aircraft be
fabricated and assembled." This language was added due to concerns with
past policy interpretations that have led to the certification of
aircraft that FAA headquarters questioned as meeting the eligibility
requirements for an amateur-built certificate."

Thanks. I did.
