I'm with Steve on this one! I have done only very basic maintenance that is allowed under the current rules, and am comfortable with oil changes, replacing a battery or light bulb and I've assisted an A&P doing an annual by removing inspection plates and the cowling and cleaning spark plugs. I would not be comfortable using anything but a screw driver on an airplane. It would be nice to be able to take advantage of some new non-STC'd avionics and save some $. If this comes to pass on wonder how the courts will treat "owner" maintained aircraft in accident lawsuits? Be careful what you wish for on this issue!
