I watched a video published by EAA where they featured a man who built a plane for $6,200. He says it's a bunch of parts from other airplanes. It's also obvious he fabricated a bunch of things to keep it cheap. In the cabin there's the "experimental" placard.

What I don't understand is how this is possible. The video did not go into a lot of details or show any images of the construction. At what point does a certified craft become eligible for "experimental"?

Thanks.
