The editor's Log in the current Sport Aviation mentioned that the
Experimental Seabee featured in last month's magazine had possibly run into
some problem with its certification.

The implication was that the Reno FSDO had screwed up issuing an amateur
build AW certificate.

So did this chap proudly display his creation for all to see, only to lose
his Certificate of Airworthiness?

I've heard of other certificated planes with home built status where the
owner built up the plane but had a certificated plane as a "core".
Wings from one plane, fuselage from another, etc.

I bet the chap with the Seabee regrets the magazine article.
