Forum for Sport Pilot talk?
Hi!
Is there any active web forum with a special focus on Sport Pilot and LSAs ? SP used to be a fairly active topic in this newsgroup, but recently I have seen surprisingly few entries here (and some in r.a.piloting). Maybe I'm just getting blind and my google searches bad, but please advise. Cheers, Nils

Maybe I'm just getting blind and my google searches bad, but please advise. LSP/LSA is a little slow these days. Post something - might liven things up a bit. :-) Too bad Cessna 152's and similar sized planes weren't included - 1,600 or 1,700 lbs? Instead it's set at 1,320 lbs. Oh well. Some choices are knocked out of LSA by speed ...120 kts/138 mph. My thought here is, if it meets the weight and stall speed limits - who cares how fast they fly? I sent that comment in during the rule making period (whatever it's called). LSP/LSA - it is what it is. Another no-medical option is motorglider. http://webpages.charter.net/engreenwell/ASA/ Montblack

I'd say that rec.aviation.pilot is just as good as any, plus sooner or
later we'll all fail the medical and will automatically be a 'Sport Pilot'. The Monk

It also has a moderator that may or may not be on his medication.
