Stingray141 Posted January 16, 2019 Report Share Posted January 16, 2019 I suspect this has been covered but I was unable to find the question via search. I have a Commercial SEL/MEL not current and not current medical. I would like to rent and fly a single engine light sport airplane with the limitations of a Sport Pilot. I need to help my instructor determine if I need a BFR and logbook endorsement to “perform sport pilot” privileges, or if I need to have an evaluation ride with a designated examiner, similar to adding category/class to a commercial.

SlingPilot Posted January 16, 2019 Report Share Posted January 16, 2019 I’m not sure about the endorsement by a CFI, fornLight Sport, but you will need a BFR. You don’t need a check ride with a designated pilot examiner, that’s for sure. You ARE a PILOT! Without a medical or basic med, you have to follow the SP rules. Drivers License, Fly an LSA, No night, can’t exceed 10k feet. You don’t need the sign off for airspace like class B. I’m sure someone will be along to add or correct me Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Baker Posted January 16, 2019 Report Share Posted January 16, 2019 Just a flight review. Hopefully you let your last medical expire. Using a drivers license as a medical for exercising sport pilot privileges is just like stepping down to private pilot privileges when using a third class medical, it is just one step down the ladder of medical certification for pilot privileges.
