Hello  There is an approval by the FAA that the Terrafeuga runs at seaplane weight limits. It may or may not yet be certified LS It has flown unless they have a friend who works at a movie studio Whether it ever gets fully certified as a Flying Car or just lets you taxi fast will not stop it being LS eligible Personally i think its a great piece of vaporware Peter --- On Mon, 9/13/10, medicbill@aol.com <medicbill@aol.com> wrote: From: medicbill@aol.com <medicbill@aol.com> Subject: Re: Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group Re: Older planes qualifying for light sp...

So, before I gave up on the Skipper, I would contact EAA for a determination. R.

You can find it at this link as well as a downloadable pdf version. It appears the Skipper does NOT meet the standards.
