Disabled Man Earns Pilot License in Flight Design CTsw LSA

Sport aviation is growing rapidly. But the new sport pilot / light-sport aircraft rules are still a mystery to many flight schools and instructors. To locate a flight school offering sport pilot training and/or light-sport aircraft rentals, click on the "Flight School And Rental Finder" tab above. This is a great place to share ideas on learning to fly, flight schools, costs and anything else related to training.

Disabled Man Earns Pilot License in Flight Design CTsw LSA

Post by scottj »

We recently had a student with a disability pass his Sport Pilot practical exam in a Flight Design CT at LSA North. We have another student in training who is a disabled Navy vet from the Iraq war. Both of these men are examples of what the new Sport Pilot program offers to the general aviation community. They are both hard workers, study hard, and train with a mental purpose and toughness not found in the average flight student. We are proud of them.
