    Abstract: This proposal establishes requirements for the

proposed establishing requirements for student pilots and private 
pilots to operate these aircraft, and revising the recreational pilot 
certificate to align it with privileges certificate with ratings for 
individuals who would inspect and maintain light-sport aircraft. In 
addition, the FAA has proposed a new category of special airworthiness 
certificate for light-sport aircraft that meet a consensus standard.
