Sport pilot medical


Leon - C <leon@...>
 

Ran across this on another list and thought I'd pass it along - even though it isnt' really relevant to Q pilots. It may be no mor than "urban legand" but might be worth checking into for those that might be in need.

---------------------------------
Last year the FAA presented details of the medical rules at the
Illinois Safety Seminar in Springfield.

Here is a key item. If your last medical was not cancelled, you can
then use your drivers license. And is here the way around your last
cancellation per the FAA. Request a single flight medical for a ferry
flight of a short distance. Almost always granted. Now your last
medical is not a failure. You dont need to actually make the flight,
just have permission.

Your request of course would be for a single flight, VFR, no
passengers, etc so there is no danger to anyone.

Leon:

More details please. I am not familiar with the
ferry request. Do I need to provide the
identification of the aircraft I am supposed to be
ferrying? Do I need the start and endpoint airport
identifiers? Do I actually need to own the plane I
am requesting the ferry medical for?

Thanks!

Mark

Can't give you anymore details. I was just passing along the info I found. I - assume - that you need the N-number of a real plane (look on Barnstormers for one for sale) and beginning and end points. I also assume that you don't actually need to own the plane as you could just say you were bringing it to your IA for a pre-purchase inspection. And if the weather - happened - to be bad and the flight had to be scrubbed, or the plane got sold/removed from the market before the intended flight............................

If you medical has been out of force for too long you might also have to arrange for a BFR to be completely legal to get the permit?
