Re: Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group RV-12 For Training

If its an E-LSA then there's an SLSA out there somewhere. Otherwise its
a light sport compliant E/AB.

If you are thinking about buying one for your own training, first thing
to check is whether or nor you can get insurance for it as a student
pilot. That's generally the hang up. Second is availability of flight
instructors in your area to instruct in it.
