Mark,
I believe it will work the same as getting a PPL. A PPL has to have a sign
off while a student in order to solo different planes. I believe you are
trying to make sport "pile" as you call it more complicated than what it is
...just because you don't like it.
There is a sport pilot place up in MASS. that is doing it's training in
Ercoupe's , which is alittle faster than the "high speed" cutoff Sounds
funny calling it a high speed cut off doesn't it! Evidently people are
soloing,..getting the endorsement to solo and soloing the Ercoupe.
I would imagine you can get an endorsement for it anyway, look at the
places that give PPL's taildragger endorsements with no solo , because of
insurance.

Gig 601,
Check out FAR 61.327 , you will find it there. Of course if you are
trining in a plane already faster, it's really no big deal. I think maybe
it
was put in there to keep ultralighters from just hopping in a Luscombe
