On an experimental, no A&P or repairman rating is required, for "major" maintenance (owner can sign). the ONLY time you need one of those people, is to perform the required annual condition inspection.

Remember, Part 43 does NOT apply to experimentals, with the exception of Appendix D, which is the annual condition inspection.

Every YEAR the ELT must be inspected (not two years)


>S-LSA (except WSC) has to have a ELT.

Only airplanes.


>For any LSA that is flying in tower controlled airspace (class b,c,d), a transponder is required (unless prior arrangement is made with the specific airport).

No transponder required for class D.
