To which Leonard sez:

Take a look at your original post, you pasted it.. Steve was just
try to help clarify something YOU posted.

The original issue was whether or not a sport pilot is limited to
operating airplanes certificated as LSAs and the answer is no, they
can fly any type of airplane that meets the performance limitations.
I listed the performance limitations. I didn't mention "gross
weight" and the FAA doesn't mention "gross weight". Why was it
necessary for Steve to point out what wasn't mentioned? They also
don't mention what type of upholstery the plane has, did you want to
bring that up as well?

I am still amazed that people like you have to argue over something
they were told, not what is in black and white, in the government
publication, right in front of you and about 3rd grade comprehension
level.

People like me? I quoted the FAA directly from the docket and
provided a link to the FAA's web site. I did not argue with anyone
nor did I rely on hearsay. Apparently your reading comprehension
fell a bit short.

I am taking Steve to task simply because he has a long history of
harping on the "gross weight" versus "maximum takeoff weight" issue
and he decided to hijack this topic to bring up his pet peeve again.
I don't care what kind of airplane he flies or what type of license
he uses to do so, but if he encourages others to follow his
interpretation of the rules and they suffer from the process Paul
describes (i.e., "... it is a rare case to have a board of review not
agree with the government agency...") he is culpable.

Hell im takin the 5th on this one and drinking it to forget all the bull . Yes it is relevant to the subject of LSA aircraft and if you use the directive as written then many more aircraft are available to pilots who fly in the lsa aircraft category. If the Faa wrote it wrong then that is there fault and no one can argue until it is rewritten and made law .
Steve has a great point and im stickin to it .
DO not archive
