Sport Pilot Talk

I'm scheduled to take a LSRI (Light Sport Repairman - Inspection) course the weekend of April 15 in Lawrenceville, Georgia. The cost is $400 and will allow the owner of an ELSA to perform his/her own annual condition inspections. If anybody else in the area is interested, the course is being offered by the DAR that signed off my ELSA conversion, Michael Huffman of Sport Aviation Specialties:

E-mail Michael through that website if you are interested.

You don't have to have an ELSA to take the course. The course doesn't expire, so if you buy or convert to an ELSA in the future, you can get the Repairman certificate for the airplane at that time from the FSDO.

The timing works out perfectly for me, since my annual expires April 25. I can start work on it right after the course when it's all fresh in my mind.

The link you posted is busted - it literally points to abbreviated URL.

Fixed, thanks.

Andy,

I just checked with Michael and he said I'd be welcome to sit in on the class as a refresher.

Not sure how my "schedule " is working out, but I'm going to try to attend on one or both days if possible.

edited to add: That Sunday is Easter. Are you sure that's the right dates?

April 15-16 is what the email he sent said. I just re-checked it.

Does Michael also offer the 120 hour LSRM course?

I do not believe so.

This course has been moved to the weekend of April 22.

Thanks.

Karen recalled that Michaels's wife is a pastor, so classes on Easter Sunday did not make much sense.

When he called me to tell me about the change, he did mention his wife gently reminded him about the holiday...

Was that gently with a skillet, or gently with a rolling pin?
