I think AVweb was the site that reported that the FAA was going to extend the deadline for ADS-B, which turned out to be a hoax. I'll believe they're scrapping the 51% rule when I read it in Flying Magazine or Kitplanes.
At any rate, if a factory could build experimental planes and do an end run around all the regulations of certified planes, why would anyone (except people carrying passengers for money) ever buy a certified plane again?
