Just to be clear to those folks Bud is speaking of:
A pilot with a GLIDER rating with a SELF-LAUNCH endorsement
can fly the Europa Motor Glider as a powered aircraft as follows:
No LSA Speed Limit (135kts vs 120)
No LSA Weight Limit (1450#)
No Stall speed Limit
Full Night privileges (with lights)
Full IFR privileges (if so rated and equipped)
NO MEDICAL CERTIFICATION of ANY KIND
NO issue with prior FAILED Medical Certification
Why would any US Pilot care to convert a Europa MG to the restrictions of
LSA?
