[Gilan]

January 31, 2007
Deadline for an ultralight pilot to take his sport pilot practical test if
he wants to receive full credit for his ultralight flight time.

January 31, 2008
Last day that an experimental light-sport airworthiness certificate will be
issued to a "fat" ultralight or two-seat trainer.

January 31, 2008
Deadline for an ultralight flight instructor to take his sport pilot CFI
practical test if he wants to receive full credit for his ultralight flight
time, and FOI.

January 31, 2008
Ultralight two-seat training exemption expires. New BFIs allowed until
then, but of ever decreasing value.

Is there an instructor certificate for Sport Pilot that is distinct from a
standard CFI?

If yes, what is the difference in standards or requirements to get one of
these? Can one instruct Sport Pilot using a drivers license instead of a 2nd
class?

instructor), 150 hrs TT.

Yes, as can any flight instructor. (assuming he/she need not be pilot in
command)

But a sport pilot CFI CAN be PIC while using his/her drivers lic as a
medical as long as it's in an LSA qualified plane.....

True. The PIC comment was(poorly) aimed at the requirement for a subpart "H"
instructor.
