In that case you won't be able to fly it in Canada unless it is signed off
by a certified AME. (Not one would sign it.) That is a release statement
which says that the plane is kept to "Applicable airworthiness standards.
No Amateur plane built, by definition, meets those standards.
The statement, in Canada, also means any part on the plane can be traced
back to the manufacturer as a certified part. Can you say that for every
nut and bolt on your plane? No. Good, it means you are flying amateur
built ;-).
BTW At one time if you put a certified engine in your plane it is supposed
to have the serial number modified to make it uncertified. This is still
done when transferring a plane from Certified to Owner Maintained category.
I'm not sure if it is still to be done on Amateur category.
The log book of my 'Fox had the maintenance signed off by the original
owner/builder and also lists his pilot number. The words, "Applicable
Airworthiness Standards" doesn't appear in my logs at all.
