One of the things about the sport pilot is that he is restricted from flying

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.



There is nothing wrong with my comprehension of what I read. Your writing is
not as accurate as you seem to think it is. You speak of specifics *now*; you
spoke in sweeping generalities *then*.


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.



Save your sarcasm for someone who gives a ****. You don't want to know what I
honestly think.
