If you check the government .doc file you will see the the complexity of compliance documentation required to meet the requirements of the sport pilot aircraft category. It is up to the manufacturer, or builder, to supply the government with test data sufficient to satisfy the certification process. It is much, much more than................."I swear that's all she'll do". An individual could do it but it will be an undertaking. In the motor glider scenerio or sport pilot category, it is up to Rand Robinson to present supporting test documentation for inclusion to the category. I post this not to inhibit one from pursuing this path, but do your homework. The sport pilot is not an attempt to open the door to those who don't meet medical requirements or to get a bunch of garage built airplanes into the air. It is a highly, highly requlation provision within the FAA. Do your homework.
