WELL Basically Yes but not as strict. A Sport Pilot certificate will suffice, and they are easy to get. As to why, if you go by the EAA's premise, Pietenpol was a kit plane where it was constructed by the owner. When I looked into building one for myself a few years ago, they were still recognized as an Experimental aircraft, and so the pilot only had to follow the guidelines for licensing as an experimental craft.
