Re: Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group Re: 3rd Class medical

There is also a big push going on now with the FAA to do away with the 3rd class medical for private pilots.  I think this is a good time to wait a bit and just use your sport pilot.  A busted medical will cost a bunch.  Waiting is cheap.  Roger P --- On Fri, 10/14/11, Jim M <jbmm211@verizon.net> wrote: From: Jim M <jbmm211@verizon.net> Subject: Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group Re: 3rd Class medical To: Sport_Aircraft@yahoogroups.com Date: Friday, October 14, 2011, 2:57 PM   The only caution that I would give is that if you were to fail your 3rd Class medical you would not be able fly as a sport pilot using your driver's license as the medical. If you decide to get your 3rd Class be certain that you will pass the exam before starting the thing with an AME.
