do you have a source for the exception for over 10,000ft MSL in gliders
under the LSA category?

of less than 120 kts."

Not quite true. There is an exception to flying over 10,000 feet. I
recall it is a maximum clearance. Also, the maximum speed is based upon
level flight operation and is not Vne. It is Vh.
