As someone that was actually at Virginia during the show I can tell you that the display was definately not sanctioned by the CAA or the safety officer. The indemnity that all display pilots have to sign clearly states that the display have to be within the flight envelope as stated in the AFM. (Clearly not the case in this saga)
The CAA inspector at the show stated to a number of people after the event that it was quite possibly the most expensive display witnessed in a number of years.
As to the CoA, it is my understanding that if the manufacturer withdraws a type certificate, the CoA is automatically suspended pending rectification to the satisfaction of the manufacturer.
