Re: Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group Getting Smarter and not liking it

You can work around that by doing an owner assisted annual. Most IAs
won't charge you much for that.

IF however I buy say an old Ercoupe 415C for example that I can FLY as an LSA, I can do all the maintenance, but CANNOT DO ANNUALS. Sort of seems silly really, obviously I know far more about an old Ercoupe than some newly designed LSA. Anyhow, I got tired of paying for annuals, then spending a couple of months straightening out someone elses mistakes on my plane. It has been some years now, I hate to even think what an annual would cost. Looks like an SLSA or ELSA is the only real choice for someone with an A&P License. Not too bad a choice really, given that most of the new LSA planes can outrun an old Ercoupe anyway.
