Aero delight
This is great. not only is it a unique aircraft but it is available at the right time. Of course current economic conditions may reek havoc with the introduction of a new and different type of aircraft. The FAA designation of a new type of
aircraft classification
, light sport aircraft, is a godsend to recreational
flyers
of limited means. Planes in this class must have just one engine, and maximum airspeed is 138 miles per hour.
Flyers
must stay below 10,000 feet, can only be flown during day light, in clear skies and away from busy airports. But that's still a lot of room to barnstorm. To fly these types of aircraft you need only 20 hours of instruction to get certified. For only $150K you can be up and flying. need I say, " Wow!"
