Well, if you really wanted to fly an RV-3, you could probably hang a 100 hp
engine and a less than optimal prop and stay under the speed limit...

I'm 57 and have been flying for only two years. The sport pilot
definition was just about a perfect fit for my intended use: flying for
fun and just lookin' around. An occasional cross country. I've got
very
little interest in big airports. A little plane is fine with me.


It would have been nice to get the C-150/152's and all of the Ercoupes
into
the L-Sport category. 1,600 lbs? Oh well.

The other is the high end speed limit (138 mph). It would have been nice
if
that could have been waived for single place planes ...RV-3(B). Again, oh
well.
