SLSA conversion to ELSA - I'm too lazy to look up specific documentation but
that fact was part of the knowledge requirements when I took my ELSA
Repairman's course, and the instructor was *very* specific that it was a
one-way choice and an exception to the normal ban on switching an aircraft's
airworthiness type. I specifically had to jump through hoops to prove that
my UK built Kitfox had never been issued an Certificate of Airworthiness of
any type prior to my application for ELSA. The FAA had apparently had too
many applications to switch type and rejected mine off hand without
extensive (and expensive!) proof.

21.191(i)(3) doesn't address the "E-LSA can't go back to S-LSA" question. One of the disqualifying factors is: "The aircraft must not have been previously issued a standard, primary, restricted, limited, or provisional airworthiness certificate, or an equivalent airworthiness certificate issued by a foreign civil aviation authority."

Thank you for finding that rule Bob, SLSA conversion to ELSA is the *only*
(to my knowledge) exception to that rule. ELSA to SLSA is prohibited by the
rule, as is any other type conversion like E-AB to ELSA.
