I have a "friend" who is pretty gimped up and must use forearm crutches to get around. My "friend" has a question:
He'd really like to get back into flying and he's very interested in the RV-12. If he was flying and landed and got out with crutches, could the FAA guys do a ramp check and determine him unfit to fly?
Sport Pilot lets us Self-Certify...but if there is an obvious physical problem, could my "friend" get his ticket pulled?
Background: He still walks, drives a manual transmission very well and otherwise is quite able to get around. The deficit is primarily on his left side.
