Experimental or not?

LOA's are still around. For the ex-mil's now they have a weird
pseudo-type-rating system that shows up on your license. But that applies
only to ex-mil on that AC that's been recently updated. For my BD-5J, for
example, I was told to apply for an LOA, and that's what the FSDO will issue
me if aero-medical ever gets around to handling my special issuance renewal.

The LOA is no longer called an LOA, but from what the FSDO told me about
the requirements, it is still a rose by another name.

The way I remember it was the FAA came out with the hours and LOA
requirement because there were too many doctors and lawyers that had
more money than brains and got out of their Bonanza and into a P-51
and killed themselves.
