Hi;
I've been away from the forum for awhile and I was wondering about the status of the LSA changes (weight increase, etc.). The last I heard is that the changes are to be sent out for comment in mid 2022 and it might become law by the end of 2023. Anyone heard different?
Thanks;

lsa pilot age insurance limit?
Hi; I've heard that many (most? all?) insurance agencies tend to not insure pilots of tailwheel aircraft beyond the age of 79. I'm not there yet (I'm 63) just thinking ahead. Is this correct? If so, does it apply to lsa as well as non-lsa aircraft? Are there any age limitations for nosewheel aircraf...

Sport CFIs can now teach instrument flying but how much?
Hi; In addition to instruction by sport CFIs counting towards higher ratings, a recent AOPA article said that "Sport pilot instructors will be allowed to provide training on control and maneuvering solely by reference to instruments with required endorsement". What must be done to get this...

RANS S-20 experiences?
H;
The RANS S-20 Raven LSA has been around for a few years. I was wondering if anyone has flown it. If so, your thoughts? Does anyone know if an S-20 has been fitted for skis or floats?

CTSW on floats or skis?
Hi;
I've seen a CTLS on floats but does anyone know if a CTSW has been put on floats? How about skis?

RANS S-7 entry /exit
Hi;
In looking at the Rans S-7, it seems that you need to be a contortionist to get into and out of the front seat with the wing strut so close. Anyone with experience in this?

AT-4 vs. C -162
Hi;
An airport not too far way has an Aero AT-4 (formerly the Gobosh 700S) and they recently replaced their CTLS with a Skycatcher. Any ideas on the pros and cons of each?

Aerotrek opinions?
Hi;
I was wondering if anyone has experience with the Aerotrek A220 or A240 as an owner and/or pilot. They seem to be well built, have a good useful load and are at a reasonable price.

Re: CTLS or CTSW ?
Hi;
Thanks for all your replies. A comparable aircraft seems to be the Remos g3/600. Does anyone have experience with it as an owner or pilot?
