Default Skycatcher IFR?

LSAs are supposed to be VFR only. I can't find anywhere in the rules
that allow for an LSA to be IFR certified. If you find it let us
know.

The Light-Sport Aircraft were not intended for complex operations.



Gilan, A fully certified airplane can be used by an LSA pilot provided
it also meets LSA requirements (weight, speed, etc). If it incidentally
also has lights for night flight, or instrumentation for IFR, that
doesn't prohibit a sport pilot from using the plane within the limits of
their sport pilot privileges.
