Private to Sport Pilot

You can fly as a sport pilot if you never get another medical.


Woo HOO!!! Thanks for the good news.


It's not clear to me what your last status is. It appears that you are
saying that you got deferred to OK city then never sent in the required
info. If this is true, then it is very likely the medical was denied
and you're screwed :-(

To find out for SURE what your status is, call your regional AAM-300
office and ask what the "official" status is. Then you will know for
sure. Quite frankly, even if I "knew" my last medical had been denied,
I would call since this IS a bureaucracy, and bureaucracies make
mistakes :-)

The phone numbers of the AAM-300 offices are at:

My last medical was in Oct 2003 and is current and approved. Although I
was deferred to OKC and requested to send in more paperwork. I did submit
the paperwork and was cleared for a 3rd class medical. I am not due again
until Oct 2006.

Then your golden! If the limitations of the sport pilot rule meet your
flying requirements, let it expire and never worry about that cr*p again
