so I can't go to a FireStar in the Experimental category without a PPL.

I think the Firestar will easily meet the Light Sport requirements. This allows you to fly it with a Sport Pilot license. This license requires ½ the training and flight time as a PPL. Also no special physical exam is required. **IF** you have never failed such an FAA required exam for a PPL.

Just so he is not confused: you can fly anything that meets the light sport requirements- 1350? (not sure of the exact weight) MPH limitations, whether it is registered as Light sport or experimental amateur built. However you will have to meet the 103 requirements if you do not have a Sport Pilot lic. A Firefly would meet that quite handily.
