What are the medical requirements for a Sport Pilot?

First and foremost, same as all pilots flying any aircraft, you must personally determine before each flight that you are medically fit to operate the aircraft in a safe manner. Second, a valid U.S. driver's license can be used for medical eligibility in which the same restrictions on a driver's license, such as wearing glasses, are applicable when flying a LSA as a sport pilot. A third class FAA medical is required for private pilots to fly aircraft that do not qualify as LSA. It should be noted that if an FAA third-class medical was suspended, denied, or revoked, this must be cleared before using a driver's license as medical eligibility to fly as a sport pilot. Accept in the case of glider pilots, glider pilots may legally operate their aircraft even if their medical has been revoked, provided they still qualify for their state issued drivers license.
