After many, many years and many hours flying high performance SELs, I have decided to make a sojourn into the world of a downgraded (no offense intended) PPL to Sport Pilot. That being said, I have been reviewing the specs for a variety of Classic aircraft with the intent to purchase one that I can fly under the LSA category. The Luscombe 8A is one that (with some attention to Max gross weight) seems to fall into that category.

My query is: Are there other classics that are candidates for LSA that I should also consider and what are the hidden pitfalls for which I should be aware?
