How is this (Sport pilot) going to work when you cross a border? I'm
thinking specifically of the U.S./Canada line, but also U.S./Mexico.

Currently (I'm told), when you re-enter the U.S. coming from Canada, the
U.S. Customs inspector asks you to show your medical certificate. If you are
flying under the upcoming Sport Aircraft provisions, will they (Customs)
allow you to proceed with a driver's license as proof of certification?

I don't think you can fly in Canada on a sport pilot permit just as
Canadians can't fly in the states with a rec pilot permit. Hopefully
someday there will be an agreement to honour the different systems
