The E-AB doesn't change, but the Sport Pilot eligibility does. One of the requirements for a plane to be eligible for a Sport Pilot to use is that it "always has met" the requirements. So, if you set, for example, a 2500 rpm limit in the operational limits to meet the standards, then later changed the operational limits to 3300 rpm to get more performance, which then put you outside the performance limitations, even if you change the operational limits back, that aircraft can never again be eligible for Sport Pilot use. -- Regards, RonB
