Default Medical and Sport Pilot

Phil: I have a current 3rd class medical and have had bypass surgery 7
years ago and 6 months after surgery did a complete stress check and got my
medical back.. I have to do a stress test every year and submit it to FAA.
They approve and if I'm due the normal flight physical, I present the FAA
paper work to the Doc and away we go. Not even a nuisance if you want to
keep a check on what your arteries are doing.

Hello
I have a friend that took flight training about nine years ago , went
for his 3 rd. class physical and ended up having by-pass surgery , talked
to him this eve. on Ham radio and he wondered what it would take to go
with the Sport Pilot rating , I told him that I thought he would have to
have any issues with his failed physical cleared up before he could fly
with the SP privilege , am wondering exactly what the procedure will be ,
I told him that he my need to take a new physical , any thoughts on this
would be appreciated .
Phil
