Default Grounded - Where to get rid of the Building Materials?

OK, the new skinny from the Medical People at CAMI:

I sent them the details and they stated:

Dear Mr. Scholl - if piloting a glider or balloon does not require an
FAA
airman medical certificate, then you would be legal to do so. However,
I
would strongly recommend you discuss with your attending physician the
advisability of doing so given your medical conditions and safety
considerations.

Unfortunately, in light of your having received a formal denial from
the
FAA, you are not eligible to operate Light Sport Aircraft.

My doc already suggested I go that route. So Dr. Kowalsky need not be
too concerned.

So, I am going to check it out further. I would not mind a sailplane
rating. And if the aircraft is rated as a sailplane and self launching,
then I can get those endorsements as well. The "motor glider" can not
weigh more than 1836 pounds and can not have a loading of more than .62
lbs, that is weight to span squared.

Now to research what aircraft are rated as sailplane, self launching
and has all that. But I would be just as happy unpowered. Flying is
Flying, whether powered or unpowered.
