That might help! ;-)
As I understand not every country allows IFR in experimentals
It is best (and also everything is least enforced) in the former USSR

I can’t help with the exact answer, but as the RV10 is a homebuilt, every country seems to have its own rules for what they allow (or don’t not allow) for homebuilts.
That makes sense. Good to see that even this segment has it´s downsides! As they say, if you can´t get up – getting the other ones down, has the same effect! ;-) Sorry! Didn´t mean that!

Gotta be the right answer

a little zoom in sure will help @Yeager… LY
I´m not that smart Dan my Man. But now, since u pointed me in that direction. Is Lithuania not part of EASA. Why would they have their “own” regulations when it comes to IFR operations.. It´s very unusual for me to see a simple SEP with dual pitot tubes. wtf.
@RV14 It makes sense to have dual pitot tubes in a heavily dependent integrated “glass cockpit concept” (from a logical point at least), but from a regulatory point of view, to me at least (but I´m by far no expert), it seems strange that the authorities brings the requirement for two separate pitot tubes up at this day and age. Is the RV14 a certified aircraft or not?

Some jurisdictions require IFR approved RVs to have two pitot tubes

Which jurisdictions would that be? out of curiosity.

There´s probably a reason why IFR certification only requires 1 pitot tube on SEP´s
Some jurisdictions require IFR approved RVs to have two pitot tubes
example:
from system architecture standpoint the requirement makes some sense for a “fully” redundant cockpit: PFD is connected to pitot on the left hand site while MFD to the other one
