Ron, I put that comment in there on purpose. In a section I did not present, the FAA turned down a recommendation of the Aviation Rule Making Committee. The ARMC recommended a sport pilot self-certification form for those applying, who did not have a third class medical but did possess a state drivers license. The FAA's ruled against it so as not to add another level of bureaucracy into the process.......imagine that. Their rational was most states require a driver to sign some kind of statement addressing physical competence. Kentucky has no such document, I don't know if your state requires such.
Like I said, I truly know enough about this to be dangerous. I just threw this stuff out there as I knew a lot of listers were interested. I do have an opinion on letting your medical expire. If you want to know, email me off the list. Dana Overall 1999 & 2000 National KR Gathering host Richmond, KY RV-7 slider, Imron black, "Black Magic" Finish kit Buying Instruments.
