As a Canadian, this makes little to no difference to me but what, really
is wrong with pro builders. The planes are built better (in theory), there
are less uncompleted kits, people get rewarding work. I really don't see a
problem other than the rules forbid it, but rules can be adapted to
reflect reality.

1) It is against the rules.

2) As you say, rules can be changed.

3) In my opinion, there are few, if any, changes that could be made to the
rules governing amateur built aircraft that wouldn't have an adverse impact
on the people who follow the rules.

Wouldn't it be rotten if the FAA knee jerked the Amateur/Experimental rules
and screwed it up for everyone instead of enforcing the perfectly good rules
they already have in place?
