Chuck... as many people that have read the new Sport Pilot

as many different interpretations as you will get.

If you currently have a VALID ClassIII medical or higher, and a

Private
Pilot Certificate.
You can fly Light Sport Aircraft, J-3, small Taylor Craft, etc that

qualify
as "Airplane", but also "Light Sport Aircraft"



As a private pilot, can we fly LSA certified aircraft (of where there
are currently none, but will be some)? There seems to be a lot of
confusion about LSA aircraft. I believe a SP can fly a J-3, but a J-3
is still a normal category certified aircraft. I believe a new category
will be put on some airplanes called "LSA" that will allow owners to do
some maintenance.
