Well I know that all of the ones I have had signed off and had the airworthiness certificates for did not have such a limitation but I have heard from others that the FAA inspector added such things, which he can do. I have seen a certificate issued for a RAF gyro that said "The Pilot in Command must posses the appropriate rating to operate this aircaft" and yet according to the FAA the only rating required is a Private Pilot license inorder to carry passengers........well 15 weeks of fighting buearacy and the certificate was reissued without this statement in it. That is why I used a DAR...yes it cost money and sometimes it is alot of money but they just issue a certificate without all of their personal opinions written in as a restriction for operation.
