Brian is correct, however not just the owner, but anyone can work on any experimental. Obviously, discretion should be used. I believe the reason is that there aren't many, if any, regulations governing working on experimentals. Also, the condition inspection is to be done annually, but really shouldn't be confused with the "annual", thought of prior to the Light Sport rules coming aboard.
I guess it's all about semantics. Another common error - pilot "licenses" don't exist, only pilot certificates do.
