Re: Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group Re: Getting your new S-LSA home

That's an interesting suggestion. I've been thinking I had to get the BFR in a regular airplane (because I hold a Private ticket). That will work if there is an instructor at the airport where the plane is based. Thanks.

Perhaps it would be easiest and most efficient to kill two birds in one stone. Go to the place to buy the LSA. If you like it, buy it and get a CFI familiar with the plane give you training in it and a BFR and then fly it home.
Most insurance companies will give you a discount on your insurance for the LSA anyway if you log five hours transition training in that model with a CFI.
This gets you covered in all places

Let's also say I'm a private pilot with a current medical, but I haven't had a BFR for a looong time (but I have been getting some dual in a local 4-place airplane). How do I get the S-LSA home? (I DO have a valid driver's license.) Can I fly it home? Who checks me out in it? Do they endorse my log book as being cleared to fly it? It's so confusing for us old farts. Thanks.
