Re: Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group ELSA vs LSA

Jimmy,

Very close, except for one detail.
The grandfathered, usable for training, E-LSA got its' training from a Operation Limits entry, not from a LODA.

BTW:
Those Operation Limits that allowed training are expiring on January 31, 2010.
So, to be able to continue training (and/or even be able to legally fly that E-LSA after January 31, 2010) the Operations Limits must be modified. 
The modified Operation Limits will not enable training.
To continue training with that E-LSA, a LODA must be obtained.

> Peter this is not accurate. An S-LSA is a factory built LSA and can be used for training. It also must meet all the factory requirements for inspection, maintenance, instrumentation, etc. And if used for training then the additional inspections. An E-LSA can be a grandfathered in "Fat Ultralight" or it can be any one of the hundreds of home-built kits that are now available. It can also be used for training if in the original conversation to E-LSA it received a LODA for training and that LODA is coming up for renewal shortly.
