Ahhhha!,
See there is the other confusion of the same rule, you said until we fly
in a 87 knot LSA. Well why doesn't a Cherokee count, does it not cruise over
87 knots? Why can't you count flying any aircraft that flies over the 87
knots as one for the endorsement, you can train in one that fast. If you can
fly a Cherokee you can't control a Zenith 601? I didn't see anything in the
rule that says you have to solo the 87knot or over plane , just you needed
training and a endorsement. Since you can train for a sport pilot cert in a
Cherokee and not solo it, why can't you count that time for the endorsement?
And hey, I'd love to go fly with ya! We'd have a blast. If you were anywhere
close I'd come and fly your Champ for sure! I just love that little
airplane! Slipping in for a landing in the Champ is just fun!

But by all means , I like your common sense approach to it! If you are a
CFI
please give me the endorsement so I won't have to fool with it!

I'm a CFI, but you don't get the endorsement until we fly
together in a 87 knot LSA. :-)

I'd like to track down the origin of this dispute. I sure
don't see it. I've called OK City (AFS-610) on SP questions
a lot. I'll call and see what they say.

Do not spin this aircraft. If the aircraft does enter a spin it will
return to earth without further attention on the part of the aeronaut.
