Was just in the process of finding a new AME, mine retired.

Does this mean I don't have to re up my medical or is there a hold on the law.?

The FAA will do what hurts private aviation.

They could increase the gross weight limit for light sport, but I think they’re stuck with the pilots bill of rights 2. I don’t think the statute gives them a lot of wiggle room. My concern is they may make the required four-year physical as onerous as the third class medical Exam.

I have the sport pilot cert, and am currently working towards the private. Wouldn’t hurt my feelings if they upped the sport rating. Then I could hold off on the private cert. And buy the plane I’ve been looking at, 150 hp Cessna 152.

FAA has one year to issue rules, but if they don’t, it GOES INTO EFFECT.

Also, the altitude limit is 18,000.
