I think you missed the point. Its important to point out that the
pilot would have to have a 3rd class medical because the Skycatcher
otherwise qualifies for Sport Pilots. So if you fly VFR you do not
need a medical, if you fly IFR you do. So if you are considering going
to sport pilot aircraft and looking at the SKycatcher but plan on
flying IFR its important to note that you'll need to keep a current
class 3 medical in order to fly IFR.
