OK,
To sum it up,....before a sport pilot can operate a fixed wing aircraft that cruises 87 knots or more he must have ground and flight training and recieve an endorsement. The rule regarding this endorsement specifically states a certificated sport pilot can get this endorsement. So you have one rule saying a sport pilot can train in the same aircraft that the other rule says he can't until after he is a "sport pilot". It's causing as much confusion as the retracts on seaplanes, if not more just because alot of us(me included) have already been flying aircraft that cruise at or more than 87 knots. Some CFI's are giving the endorsement during training , others just are not sure what the heck to do. Patrick student SPL aircraft structural mech "Morgans" wrote in message ... "W P Dixon" wrote When you get down into all the little sub sections of the rules it goes on to say that only a certificated sport pilot can get training and get signed off for the 87 knot endorsement. Sorry, but you still didn't say what the 87 knot endorsement rule is. -- Jim in NC |
