Russ told me at ICAS that he was going to do all the flying, and he was all set
to do so, and it would be no problem for him to get checked out in it, becouse of all his B-25 time.

I am not quite sure how the every changing regs for the operation of experimental aircraft would handle this. I am guessing, however, that the FAA is going to want someone of Steve Hinton's caliber and experience to do the test flights. Since there are no current pilots that can give a Experimental Type Rating in the type, it will likely be one of the Experimental Type Examiners (like Hinton) who makes the first flight. They can then give Russ a type rating so that he can fly it.
