If my memory serves me correctly, the above requirement of wingspan ^2
divided by gross wt not to exceed 0.62 lbs is stated in the
"Certification"
limitations. It has been argued that this requirement doesn't apply to
experimental air craft.

While that is true, I would think that if you wanted to fly with a glider
ticket, you would only be allowed to do it in a glider that meets certified
specs, no?
