Hello Tom,
I just read the FAA proposal. Can you clarify what "ELSA" is?
My concern is that if "ELSA" is only an aircraft built before 2010 then I would have no way to use this rule change since I don't own an old 2010 two seat ultralight. Or would this proposal allow a newly built EA-B to somehow qualify as an ELSA?
From FAA proposal: "This proposed rule removes a date restriction imposed by the 2004 Certification of Aircraft and Airmen for the Operation of Light-Sport Aircraft Final Rule which prohibited the use of experimental light sport aircraft (ELSA) for compensation or hire flight training after January 31, 2010. Removing the date restriction allows owners, operators or training providers of ELSA that were eligible to conduct flight training prior to the cutoff date to do so again."
thanks
Bill
