Wondering What Light Sport Can Do For You?

Wondering What Light Sport Can Do For You?
Maybe you are a private pilot but never renewed your medical then Sport
Pilot is a great place for you. Discussions on the new (LSA) Light-Sport
Aircraft and Sport Pilot license. Please ask questions. Talk about anything
related to Light-Sport Aircraft and the Sport Pilot license. Many UL
pilots across the country need to transition to Sport Pilot so if you are
one of them and need some answers don't waste any more time start asking.
Deadlines are coming up fast!

Have a good day and stay out of the trees!
See ya on Sport Aircraft group

As I recall, it was this sentence of yours (apparently lacking a verb)
that provoked that follow up:

"Discussions on the new (LSA) Light-Sport Aircraft and Sport Pilot
license."

As a multi-decade participant in Usenet, I also understood, that
YahooGroups, although flashier, lacked the ability to attract a
readership anywhere near as large as that of Usenet. This newsgroup
generates about 6,000 messages per month.

While GoogleGroups archives Usenet and provides a public portal, it
too, like YahooGroups, provides an alternate communications forum
separate from Usenet, thus fractionalizing the content over multiple
forums. That makes the information more difficult to search.

To be fair, I congratulate your LSA discussion group for its continued
activity since November 2002. And I wish you oodles of success in
attracting participants.

Is that guy landing that thing "wheels up" on the grass or did he
retract them that early in the takeoff?

Low pass? With a seaplane, he could have landed, and done nothing more than
scratched the paint.

A neighbor at Zuehl (grass runway) landed his 210 gear up a couple years back.

The ONLY dammage (other than the curly prop) was an antenna on the belly.
Heck, the pain wasn't even scratched!

Oh, I'm SURE that the pain WAS scratched! In fact, I'm sure that the
pain was in a bleeding wallet!

I saw that after I posted it...

No dammage to the PainT...

You are right about the bleeding wallet though.

That prop still hasn't been replaced.
Sad...

If I landed a 210 on its belly, I can guarantee you my pain will be more
than scratched. But if it has a curly prop, chances are good it will
need an engine teardown.
