Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group Re: IFR LSA's

I understand that too Jim (to get out from under some fog and be able to go away) but its not the time yet. It will be time I believe in about 3 to 5 years for LSA to go there and that's simply because who is the flier (70%) right now especially in the airplane category. Realities cannot be denied.

People have different needs and design planes to fit those needs. Just because your needs don't need instruments doesn't mean everyone's doesn't. I fly for fun, too, but to be honest, having the ability to file IFR to escape some morning fog and go somewhere nice has been handy a couple of times. But mostly, if I fly through a cloud, I'm getting paid to do it, so I understand what you're saying.

It wouldn't make sense to me to fly when I couldn't see anything. If the weather is bad, I wait until it gets good. I fly for sport!
