Here's an example from some Operating Limitations circa 1998:

7. This aircraft shall not be flown unless it is inspected, maintained
and
operated in accordance with appropriate technical publications as
follows:
Flight Manual for the ELAN/GLASER-DIRKS, DG-300 ELAN ACRO,
dated 5/92, as revised and the Maintenance Manual for the
ELAN/GLASER-DIRKS, DG-300 ELAN ACRO, dated 5/92, as
revised.
I've owned four experimental gliders over the past 10 years, and they all
had
this same basic wording. It is apparently part of the boiler plate Ops
Lims in
whatever Advisory Circular the FSDO uses to put these things together...

My older sailplanes Operation Limitations were sort of "hand written" (ie:
much simpler). The Limitations for my current ship was directly out of a
"boiler plate" on the FAA inspector's desktop computer. I watched as he
composed it. I guess that different offices use different criteria. Thanks
for filling me in on what is happening out West.
