That cite works for a student pilot. A certificated airplane pilot getting
glider training is not a student pilot. See the FAQs for Part 61 on the FAA
website.

As another poster noted, a CFI gives authorizations and may limit them as he
or she sees fit. Operate outside that authorization and you violate Part 61
and possible Part 91.

So I repeat my question - what makes you think the
transition pilot is required to comply with any
additional limitations, such as expiration date, crosswind
limitation, etc?

Yeah, so? What makes you think the holder of a student
pilot certificate is required to bide by any of the
CFI-imposed limitations outlined in and required by
61.195(d)(iii)?

14CFR61 Subpart C -- Student Pilots
61.89 General limitations.
(a) A student pilot may not act as pilot in command of an aircraft:
(8) In a manner contrary to any limitations placed in the pilot's logbook
by an
authorized instructor.

Correct, and precisely my point.

Really? Exactly what part of Part 61 or 91 will you be violating if
you are not a student pilot? Chapter and verse please.

When an instructor endorses a logbook with a limitation and the student
violates that limitation then the specific section of Part 61 that the
endorsement contained is reg broken.

As for Part 91, that depends on what the pilot (student or transition) did.
91.3 addresses the PIC responsibilities (which a solo pilot, student or
transition, is by definition). 91.13 is for careless or reckless operation.
Once again, it depends on the circumstances and how much the feds want to
write up.
