Ira,
Someone without a 47 foot wide hanger I guess.  The short tips on Homers 
419PL are about 41 feet, and his hangar is 40.  He goes in sideways on a 
trolley.

  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?
