Re: Re: Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group Re: lease back

Are you saying that owners, after 150 hours can then learn how to change their own oil and filter and do it themselves, if they get training every two? Or is this apply to only ELSA folks still only? When I bought my SLSA the dealer showed/trained us how to do these things so we could do it ourselves, if we wanted to. Of course there are those who do not and want someone else to do all that for them. Then Rotax did their thing and do not touch came into play. So we now have to have the oil changed by A&P's still or not? Even out of warranty?

OK.  I just got off the phone with 610.  The word now is that an A&P no longer needs to go to factory specific training or 2 year renewal of such to work on a Rotax (except for warranty work).  However, this does not apply to light sport repairmen or owners wishing to do preventative mx like changing their oil.  They still need to go to school every two years.  Also, A&Ps do still need Rotax, just not factory specific training.

Yes, and that's to be expected.. for warranty work.

By the way, did Eric talk about the whole "you can't force people to take Rotax training" issue for non-warranty work? What is Rotax's position on that now?
