Some SLAs are but the OP wasn't talking about those and nothing that is
750
lbs empty and 1300 lbs full can be an ultralight.

The OP was clearly confused about the difference between Sport Pilot
eligable aircraft and the SLA catagory. The SLA's are basically
ultralights.

Robert,

Do you consider this http://zenithair.com/zodiac/xl/index.html
and ultralight?

No, you're good to go.


How about a Flight Review.....61.56.



Only if it's expired, he didn't say it was.



No but he didn't say it wasn't either. So, better to mention it than ignore
it because he did ask if he had to take ANY certifications flight under
Sport Aviation. Especially since he obviously asking about the rules of LSA
and might not know that. Let's not pick nits when someone gives more correct
information.

You might want those extra 20 lbs. for flights around the holiday season.

Not really. My wife always lies about her weight. So if I tell her the max
is 1300 she will carry less stuff and offset her... oversight.

My word choice of "basically ultralights" vs. "all ultralights" was
specific.

Flight reviews and medicals are different.

No.

No, you're good to go.

You do need to have a current flight review.


Is this the same bi-annual we need for private? Is this only needed if I
fly a passenger, i.e. if I am solo do I still need it.

Danny

The flight review is required for PIC, whether you carry
passengers or are solo. You can do it in any airplane in
which you're rated.

My previous post was yes to all and right after I hit send I also thought of
other thing you need to check out. Insurance company requirements.
