Default I took my first light in an LSA (somewhat long)

I suspect many of the other LSA's are just as much fun. As one of the
home builders commented "Power's nice but weight's what really
matters." If you get the chance to try one out, go for it!

So did you fly with Chad or Clay? Clay is my instructor here in
Indianapolis. I really enjoy flying the sportstar but I don't have
anything to compare it too. They were supposed bring a new one back
with them but they sold it.


I flew with Clay. He seemed like a really nice guy and a calm,
competent instructor. He complimented my flying, but that may simply
be trying to sell airplanes. As far as I could tell, he let me fly the
whole flight, so I guess I didn't scare him too bad...

He did say it takes about 5 hours to get comfortably converted from
C-172's. I think most of that is learning new sight pictures and
getting used to the sensitivity of the controls.

You are fortunate to have a place to rent these, I think.
