    Sport to recreational pilot

    You have to ask yourself, if you're in such bad shape that you can't pass a class 3 medical, should you really be flying anyways?

    Sport to recreational pilot

    I have no desire or need to fly at night or in bad weather. The ONLY benefit to me in pp is passengers. I am fairly sure that recreational pilot with a cross country endorsement will give me everything I want and desire except being able to have three passengers.

    Sport to recreational pilot

    Essentially a sport pilot but with a heavier aircraft and only within a 50 MI radius. You can get different ratings like cross country, or night flying.

    Lol, I am pretty sure it will go away completely with the new MOSAIC ruling in 2023. It will get swallowed up by LPA rating.

If, in the process of getting my rec certificate I do the cross country training and the solos in an LSA to get my sport certificate ON THE WAY to getting my rec certificate (technically only adding 3 hours of cross country training) could...

    That's what I was thinking, but the FAA makes it sound like the endorsement is only good for one specific area. EX Wichita Kansas to Branson missouri. I'm just curious, and my instructor is not sure, if he could give an overall endorsement for cross country.

    Largely because I live in Kansas with a constant 30 mph wind. Not to mention the updrafts from 107° temperatures. The air turbulence throws the little LSA planes around like a toy and much less so in a 172.

    No, I'm talking about advancing FROM sport pilot TO recreational pilot. You have to receive the cross-country training to get your sport pilot certificate, so it begs the question does that move forward with you to the recreational pilot?

    Sport to recreational pilot

    I suppose I should have prefaced this with, there are a lot of aspects of Private pilot that I just truly do not need or want. Once the weight rating goes up on sport pilot it will fit me perfectly.

    Sport to recreational pilot

    I am trying to find the happy middle until the MOSAIC update is announced. I am currently in training. If, while working towards my recreational pilot certificate I get my sport pilot certificate, could I get an endorsement that allows me unlimited cross country flight in a Cessna 172 since I...
