One of the things
about the sport pilot is that he is restricted from flying certain
aircraft, certain weather, stuff like that, whereas a private pilot
would not have those restrictions. So, one doesn't have to be in as
"good" health to be good enough for sport pilot as one would need to for
a private pilot.

Do you honestly think there aren't restrictions for private pilots?

I write carefully, please read carefully.

I said a pp would not have =those= restrictions. This is not the same
as saying a pp would not have =any= restrictions. A sport pilot may not
fly some of the aircraft that a private pilot may fly. That is to say,
there exist aircraft that a private pilot may fly, but a sport pilot may
not fly. To my knowledge, there are no aircraft that a sport pilot may
fly, which a private pilot may not fly, solely on the basis of the
private/sport designation. A sport pilot is more restricted than a
private pilot.

I honestly do not think that there aren't restrictions for private
pilots. Do you honestly think I think otherwise? Never mind, don't
bother wasting time in the thread.
