    See Robs post above where he provided the link to the AOPA. Its been stated to me by flight instructors that although I have not maintained the Medical to fly as a Private Pilot ( I have a commercial instrument ticket ) the rules state that I may fly as a sport pilot and since I have the additional flight training all I would need is an annual flight review technically and I would be able to fly as a sport pilot into class B airspace. I will be needing to acquire much more than a review though to be competent as I have not flown as pilot in command in many, many years. Stick and Rudder Aviation is my plan. Then on to test flights in my SS7! 1st things 1st. have to get this thing built.

    I think when they say that, which ever is higher, is that they can go to 12,000 if the mountain is lets say 10,000 and agl is 2,000 over that. correct me if I'm wrong. then you can go to 12000 because it is higher then.

    That's what I said, maybe I shouldn't have tried to be funny when I said the minimum maximum is 10,000'. If sea level was 8,000' or less, then the highest a sport pilot can go is 10,000'. If sea level was 9,000' then highest is 11,000, ect, ect. JImChuk
