A Real Back Country Aircraft...

The Superdog

The Superdog II

A workhorse and a performer with a military bloodline. The all-metal Noyes Enterprises Superdog comes equipped with a factory support 250 horsepower Lycoming engine with a 3-blade Hartzell constant-speed propeller and Horton STOL-Craft conversion kit. Plus, with the Superdog’s genetics being from the Cessna 0-1 Birddog, it has all the right stuff to get you safely in and out of those back country strips. With the Superdog conversion there is a negligible difference in the aircraft’s empty weight. Have fun with your new Superdog!

SUPERDOG COMPARED TO BIRDDOG

Aircraft handling that’s second-to-none.

Increasing cost of spare & replacement parts

The Noyes Enterprises Superdog II has all the benefits of the original Superdog but comes equipped with the empennage found on Cessna’s high-horsepower tailwheel aircraft along with a model 3400 Tailwheel Assembly to improve flight and ground handling qualities. Then there’s the standard 52 U.S. gallons of fuel (versus 40 U.S. gallons standard on the 0-1 Birddog) allowing the Superdog II to go the distance. Plus, the Superdog II will have the finest cockpit options available including the Garmin GPSMAP 696 MultiFunction Display and the Electronics International MVP-50P Engine Analyzer, making the Superdog II the ultimate back country aircraft. Have fun with your new Superdog II!

Have Fun.

That’s what it’s all about.

Husky is your classic adventure that makes flying fun again. In early aviation, most aircraft were light, rugged machines, able to land on short, rough airstrips or in any farmer’s pasture. Today, aviation is more civilized. Fortunately, there is still a descendant of that old-fashioned taildragger bush plane that can appeal to the rugged adventurer in all of us and put the world at our fingertips – Aviat’s Husky.

Husky. America’s Favorite Taildragger. Log on to http://husky.aviataircraft.com. Check out the videos, get inspired and call to schedule your own Husky Experience!

Rare Oppor tunity!

1956 F86

Rare Mark VI configuration with leading edge slats!

THE FINEST F86 ON THE MARKET!

Nose to tail restoration exquisite in every way

It has been a long and painstaking process to bring this rare Canadair Sabre Mark VI up to Teton Aviation standards. The first phase of the restoration began in Mojave 2008. Meanwhile the Orinda 14 engine was having the unlimited life bearing mod and IRAND completed at S&S Turbines in Canada. Over the following 5 years no detail has been left unaddressed. Every system has been brought into time life compliance. The most challenging being the extremely rare fuel control system. It took an international search to find many of the parts and components but at last she is fully compliant regarding the latest time life and airworthiness requirements as put forth by the FAA. This Aircraft is a beautiful turn key piece of history and is 100% ready to fly.

Nobody gets excited about their starter until it doesn’t work. Nothing grounds an airplane and your plans faster than a faulty starter. That’s why Hartzell Engine Technologies is committed to making significant improvements to starter technology and reliability. Our starter lineup offers the industry’s best duty-cycle performance and we’ve introduced unique improvements to specific models. Innovations such as high-torque motors with lower battery draw, built-in kick-back protection (E-Drive), minimal back-torque for starter adapter protection, integrated contactors (X-Drive), stronger lightweight housings, and more. So when it’s time for a new starter, make the switch to Hartzell. And make starter AOG’s a thing of the past. SEVERE DUTY TEST 0

PARTS DISTRIBUTION

REPAIR & OVERHAUL

Expanded Capabilities Give New Meaning to “Single-Source” In just over a decade, GlobalParts.aero has evolved from a small aftermarket distributor of Beechcraft parts and spares into a worldwide, “one-source solution” for general and corporate aviation as Global Parts Group. This expanded operation now encompasses three distinct entities: GlobalParts.aero handling parts distribution, Global Parts Aero Services, Inc. providing repair & overhaul, and Global Parts Aero Manufacturing, Inc., offering component manufacturing for aviation and beyond. This impressive record of growth has encompassed not only plant and facilities expansion, but investment in new technologies and equipment, professional recruitment and training, and even a company acquisition to bring metal finishing capabilities within the scope of operations for Global Parts Aero Manufacturing, Inc. SINGLE-SOURCE PARTS DISTRIBUTION As a single-source supplier of aviation parts, GlobalParts.aero offers the most comprehensive inventory in the industry. Offering airframe, avionics and instruments, brakes, landing gear, rotables, wheels, windows, and accessories – GlobalParts.aero provides one of the most comprehensive product line selections in the industry – with more than 75,000 unique line items in stock and available for immediate shipment worldwide. Customers enjoy anytime-anywhere mobile access, same-day shipping, and 24-hour AOG service – with every order tracked to ensure proper fulfillment. With multiple distribution warehouses, GlobalParts.aero provides “any part, in every part of the world” – delivered with the added distinction of dual certification for distribution and quality management systems with ISO 9120A certification and ASA-100 accreditation.

MANUFACTURING

EXPERT REPAIR & OVERHAUL In 2011, GlobalParts.aero expanded operations to include repair and overhaul services. With a full-time staff of professionally-trained and skilled technicians, its FAA Part 145-certified repair station teams with other FAA certified repair stations to provide customers unmatched availability, quality and value in servicing their rotables. IN-HOUSE MANUFACTURING The latest addition to GlobalParts.aero’s ever expanding operation is Global Parts Aero Manufacturing, Inc. – offering an impressive resume of manufacturing capabilities that provide solutions for not only aviation, but additional industries as well. Starting in 2012, from the purchase of the first CNC (computer numerically controlled) machines, the company has rapidly expanded its manufacturing operations to become a recognized “go-to” supplier for all types of build-to-print and milled components. FROM PROTOTYPING TO FULL PRODUCTION RUNS Through subsequent investment in an array of state-of-the-art equipment and software platforms, GlobalParts.aero now offers manufacturing capabilities rivaling those of much larger, less responsive companies. Production capabilities include components of varying sizes, including large-sized format parts up to 150"; hard metals (heat-treated and stainless-steel), titanium, and superalloys, as well as nonferrous metals (aluminum/copper); and nonferrous materials such as various plastics, phenolics and vinyl. Global Parts Aero Manufacturing, Inc. is capable of producing an extensive range of run sizes that include prototyping, short runs and large production runs – in addition to offering assembly and kitting of key components and systems. POWDER COATING Components requiring a finishing touch are processed through Global Parts Manufacturing, Inc.– utilizing its world-renowned powder coating operation. Electrostatically bonded to metal, powder coating forms an impregnable “skin” that is not only more permanent and durable than conventional paint, but also environmentally friendly, leaving little or no waste or harmful residue. UNRIVALED CUSTOMER FOCUS One would not expect a company with such an impressive list of capabilities to be so responsive and customer focused. But “unmatched agility” is a GlobalParts.aero hallmark. Streamlined processes, the latest project and relationship management software, a genuine work ethic, and an underlying commitment to customer service all combine to make GlobalParts.aero a valued partner in the general and corporate aviation industry.

AEROTHERM vs the competition Speed & Efficiency The main difference between Aerotherm and the other companies in the market is how they transmit heat to the engine and its components and how quickly your aircraft will be ready to go. Other companies’ heaters place direct heat to the oil pan or cylinders and will have your aircraft ready in about 5hrs. Even though the direct heat method of heating is effective, it does not evenly heat the engine compartment and may create condensation in many cases. In order to get rid of or “burn off” the condensation you must run your aircraft’s engine. This creates a problem for most pilots that are usually at a great distance from their plane or for the ones that decided they are no longer flying that day. Eliminating condensation promptly is important as it may cause premature engine wear or damage. The Aerotherm heaters work by continuously recycling the same air in the engine compartment, evenly and consistently raising 46

the engine and its components temperature. This method eliminates condensation and has proven to be the most effective and efficient way of preheating an engine. They are the only high volume hot air electric heaters on the market and the only ones that can effectively simulate a heated hangar. Aerotherm’s system is so effective and efficient that its top of the line model can have you ready to go in as little as 30mins! All Aerotherm models are equipped with a thermostat allowing you to leave the unit unattended. You can land, attach your heater to your aircraft, set the thermostat at your desired temperature and your airplane will be ready to go when you decide to fly again. Aerotherm heaters are compatible with almost any aircraft, are easy to use, come with a 3yr limited warranty and are made in the USA. It may be the only heater you’ll ever need.

What if you have a twin

Is Aerotherm available to international customers? Yes! Aerotherm makes their units in both 120v and 230v. You have to make sure you order the correct one.

Who trusts Aerotherm Heaters? Aerotherm has been trusted by many throughout the years: 

The Weather Channel They use Aerotherm Heaters to keep their satellites free of ice and working properly.



NASA NASA purchased an Aerotherm heater to heat the inside of an aircraft and keep all of its Instruments working properly at 60,000ft.



Government Agencies Agencies such as the FBI have turned to Aerotherm to keep Their single and twin engine airplanes ready to go at a moments notice.

engine aircraft? The Aerotherm Deuce can be customized to run at either 800 or 1600watts with the flip of a switch! The addition of the toggle switch makes it the perfect heater for twin engine aircraft that require two units to run simultaneously. You must order by phone to order the customized version of the Deuce and if you are buying two units the company offers the second unit at the wholesale price.

The US is one of the most aviation friendly countries, offering general aviation aircraft owners an abundance of paved runways with no landing fees. WHAT IS A RESIDENTIAL AIRPARK OR FLY IN COMMUNITY?

Imagine a flying club with members that all lived next to each other with similar aircrafts and interest in flying to unique destinations. Combine these members and aircrafts with a paved runway or two; add stabilized taxiways that lead to hangar homes and you have an aviation community. KEY QUESTIONS AND FACTORS TO CONSIDER PRIOR TO INVESTING IN AIRPARK REAL ESTATE Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions Airpark covenants are extremely important and the first thing you should review before purchasing, I found about 20 airparks post their Covenants, Conditions & Restrictions (CC&Rs) on their websites.

be utilizing those facilities, as they will increase your fees. If you have an amphibian craft or float plane are there facilities to dock your plane? Think about what you desire and there will be an aviation community that presents the solution. Services like aircraft maintenance are extremely important along with access to flying destinations, restaurants, shopping centers and highways. Conjure a checklist of what is important to you and spend some time doing your research to find the ideal airpark, most can be found on Google. Reputation, City Ordinances & Economic Outlook Asking questions such as how does the local community see the airpark, and if there are noise ordinances or restrictions on flying at certain times. How many years has the airpark been in operation, and do residents have unrestricted access to the runway for themselves and their guests? You should take a look at where the city and airpark are headed financially to get a perspective for the future. Could growth and congestion affect future use of the airspace and ultimately what do properties resale and rent for? With so many options investing in an aviation community is a no brainer for all pilots and aviation enthusiasts. ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Location With any piece of property your location is going to determine how happy you are with your investment. According to Living With Your Plane there are about 700 airparks in the US, Florida topping the list with 73. Amenities and Services Are you looking to live in an aviation community or a golf club community? If you need a golf club or country club within the airpark community there are many that offer those amenities so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best to ensure you will 88

Emergency Beacon Corporation Manufacturer of Emergency Locator Transmitters Emergency Beacon Corporation of New Rochelle, New York has a complete line of transmitters for fixed wing aircraft and rotorcraft. Emergency Beacon Corporation, founded in 1968, is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of emergency locator transmitters with about 100,000 units in the field. The company qualifies as a small business, it is woman-owned and operated. In February of 2009, the Search and Rescue system stopped processing the 121.5 MHz signals that it receives. Now, the new digital signal on 406 MHz will be used for alerting and activating the Search and Rescue system while the 121.5 MHz signal will be used as a homing signal. Emergency Beacon’s new emergency locator transmitters will transmit a digital signal on 406.028 MHz and a homing signal on 121.5 MHz. The transmitters are approved by COSPAS/SARSAT and meet FCC requirements. They also are approved under TSO-C126 and TSO-C91a.

104

The complete line includes Automatic Portable (AP) transmitters for cabin/cockpit installation and Automatic Fixed (AF) transmitters for mounting in the tail of an aircraft and come with an external whip antenna. In addition, the AF units require a panel mounted Remote Control Monitor which is included. The AP unit does not require the Remote Control Monitor because it is easily accessed in the cabin. Both AP and AF units are also available with a proprietary 720˚ helicopter activation system that has proven itself in the field since 1982. The new transmitters measure 6.7” x 2.9” x 2.5” and weigh 2.5 lbs (with battery). They are powered by lithium manganese dioxide batteries.

Sport Aircraft International LLC has 2 “New” Sportstar Max’s in Stock

Sport Aircraft International LLC of Kerrville, Texas specializes in the sale of Evektor light sport aircraft both new and used. Sport Aircraft International was one of the earliest LSA importers and shares with Evektor the achievement of being the first company to receive FAA approval for a Special Light Sport Aircraft on April 8th, 2005. We are #1! Since 2005 Sport Aircraft Int’l has delivered over 87 Sportstars throughout North America with some 25+ of them operating daily in flight training with over 20 flight schools around the US and Canada. The reasons for the Sportstar’s acceptance as an excellent primary

trainer was its proven history with over 1,200 of them now flying in over 40 countries worldwide, its superior quality and strength with many Sportstars flying 100 hours a month, and not the least of which it’s preference by new or transitioning pilots due to its docile handling characteristics, operating economics, and cabin comfort. Since its introduction in 2005 the Sportstar has been continuously improved over the years with the current Sportstar Max and Harmony LSA representing the latest refinements in the line. “Its beauty is more than skin deep.” Currently Sport Aircraft International LLC has 2 “new” Sportstar Max’s in stock loaded with the latest Dynon and Garmin equipment at preferred customer pricing and ready for immediate delivery.

AUTHORIZED TO TRAIN

by Roy Beisswenger

tudents wanting to learn to fly ultralights, gyroplanes, and very light sport aircraft have a difficult time finding instructors. Part of the reason that instructors are scarce is because aircraft that can be used to train in are even scarcer. Sure, instructors can invest $25-100K to buy new Special Light Sport Aircraft to train in, but most instructors know they will never recover the cost of the new aircraft by flying part time as instructors. But it doesn’t have to be that way. After all, there is a large fleet of two-place aircraft completely suitable for training. Moreover, many of those aircraft were safely used for training for years. But not any longer. Rather than being classified as trainers, now the FAA considers them experimental aircraft. In order to be used for training, the FAA asks (some say requires) that the instructor apply for and obtain a Letter of Deviation Authority (LODA) in order to be used for training. And that is where the trouble is and has been for over a decade now. Normally, renting an experimental aircraft to a student –even while conducting dual training in that aircraft– is not allowed by the FAA. But in the cases of transition training or training in unique aircraft, the FAA provides for the issuing of LODAs for instructing. The key words are “provides for.” Unfortunately the actual LODAs are not being issued as needed due to a confusing process that even FAA inspectors don’t all understand. It also doesn’t help that many FAA inspectors aren’t familiar with or friendly towards –or even act professionally towards– light aviation. Despite the cumbersome process, there are some LODA holders. In fact the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) has a list of LODA holders. In fact the problem with the LODA process can be found in the raw numbers of that list. Despite the need for LODAs in many categories and types of aircraft including airplanes, powered parachutes, weight shift control trikes, and most importantly 8P

gyroplanes, at current count there are only 93 LODAs issued for all categories and all models of aircraft. The number 93 is already a scary-small number, but when you break it down by category, you can see that all of the aircraft categories are poorly represented. There are more airplane LODAs issued than anything else, but still there are only 41 LODAs for that category. Gyroplanes are prohibited by regulation to have SLSA aircraft. That means that the only realistic way for gyroplane CFIs to train is with a LODA. Unfortunately, there isn’t even an authorized LODAissued trainer for each state, much less each FSDO region. If you add in the other possible category of aircraft that can be used as training aircraft for ultralights and light sport, the potential numbers of trainers start looking a lot better. It looks especially good for the airplane category with 2549 land planes built and certified as SLSAs, which can be used for rental and training. Unfortunately, the key word in this case is ‘potential.’ That’s because there are two things going on in the SLSA airplane world. The first thing is that most of those potential trainers are going to private owners who have no intention of doing flight training. The one winning aspect of SLSA airplanes is that pilots can buy and fly a sort of ‘GA-light’ without a third-class medical. That has helped create and build that market for Light Sport. But that doesn’t do a lot to mitigate the training needs in the community. The other ‘problem’ with SLSA airplanes (and this is in quotes because it really isn’t a problem for the SLSA airplanes themselves!) is that the large majority of them do not fly like ultralight airplanes or the ultralight trainers that became very popular for a couple of decades, were built as kits, used for trainers under an exemption and are now largely sidelined for training purposes by the sport pilot rules. The aircraft may not be able to be used as trainers, but they remain popular (and inexpensive) in the form of Experimental-Amateur-Built (EAB) kits that can still be www.aviatorshotline.com • Aviators Hot Line March 2014

flown by sport pilots. It is just difficult to find training in these types of aircraft. RECOGNITION OF NEED It isn’t just another random act of good will on the part of the EAA that the LODA list was published. (By the way, you can find that list yourself at www.eaa.org/govt/loda. asp.) The creation of the list was originally recommended by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB). It was one of several recommendations they made as part of their study titled, “The Safety of Experimental AmateurBuilt Aircraft” published in May of 2012. Publication of this list was one of four safety recommendations made by the NTSB directly to EAA. This explicitly shows the value that the NTSB has for training provided by CFIs flying experimental aircraft. Of the seven broad areas of recommendations to both the FAA and the EAA, training focus was two of those areas. And frankly it was probably under-represented at that. But the two NTSB recommendations that show the value of training were: • Improve pilots’ access to transition training • Support efforts to facilitate transition training What is interesting is that the NTSB was narrowly focused on preventing accidents in EAB aircraft. Experimental Light Sport, Special Light Sport, ultralights, powered parachutes, and trikes never were included in their review since most of them are not actually EAB aircraft, despite sharing similar designs and challenges. The problems for those aircraft include not just transition training, but also primary training. The simple fact is that there aren’t enough CFIs to go around in the specialty aircraft, and many of them are sidelined because they cannot get a LODA in order to actually instruct. THE PROBLEM(S) So why aren’t CFIs getting LODAs? There is more than just one big reason, but if you had to identify a single reason, it is because the FAA has created requirements and a process for getting a LODA that is overly burdensome. If you want to reduce an activity, two great ways are to either regulate it or tax it. The FAA — sometimes purposely, sometimes not — has made getting a LODA difficult to obtain. If the FAA wants to encourage CFIs to instruct, they should get into the business of reducing barriers instead of setting new ones up. Examples? You would like examples? OK. The regulation for obtaining a LODA is very simple. It is just over 100 words: §91.319(h): The FAA may issue deviation authority providing relief from the provisions of paragraph (a) of this section for the purpose of conducting flight training. The FAA will issue this deviation authority as a letter of deviation authority. 1. The FAA may cancel or amend a letter of deviation authority at any time. March 2014 Aviators Hot Line • www.aviatorshotline.com

2. A n applicant must submit a request for deviation authority to the FAA at least 60 days before the date of intended operations. A request for deviation authority must contain a complete description of the pro posed operation and justification that establishes a level of safety equivalent to that provided under the regulations for the deviation requested. However, that simplicity is deceptive. The FAA publishes a follow-on order (which unlike a regulation is not subject to comment by the public) which adds lots of words and restrictions to the process. The additional 2,000+ words are meant to clarify the process for FAA staffers. However, the additional words and a corresponding Web-based Operations Safety System (WEBOPSS) doesn’t do enough to clarify the system and in fact gives FAA staffers a bureaucracy to hide behind if they simply don’t want to make the effort to issue the LODA. One ‘Safety’ Inspector in the DuPage, Illinois Flight Standards District Office (FSDO) recently received a request for a LODA from a gyroplane CFI in his district. He refused the application. This same FSDO had denied a request for a LODA from another gyroplane CFI a few years ago. In fact there are no actively instructing gyroplane LODA holders in the state of Illinois according to the EAA list. So when a potential pilot could not find a local CFI for gyroplane flight training, that potential pilot went forward and attempted to teach himself to fly and literally died trying. This is an extreme and unfortunate example of the kind of danger the FAA and FSDOs put the flying public in when they discourage flight training. Other ‘Safety’ Inspectors have turned down LODA applications for a variety of reasons. The most creative reason to date? A safety inspector in Texas has held up a LODA application because he wanted proof that the CFI had access to an “environmentally enclosed” classroom for ground training. This is a little better than his original opinion, which was that the gyroplane was unstable and that he would rather fly in a “hydrogen blimp” than a gyroplane. The inspector retracted his comments about the safety and stability of the gyroplane after doing just a little research. Which brings us to another problem with the LODA process. Safety Inspectors have very little real-world experience with the kinds of aircraft for which LODAs are being applied. Most of the inspectors may not have even flown in one before and are certainly not qualified to judge a training program for the category, the make, or the model of the aircraft in question. However, in a case of bureaucratic hurdle-making, the LODA process requires that CFIs provide training plans and other documentation with the LODA application. Never mind that the CFIs already are –wait for it– FAA certified flight instructors in the category. In other words, they have already been trained, tested and ultimately certified by the FAA to conduct flight training. The submission of training materials has very little to do with the aircraft involved and most FAA safety inspectors (who again are often not rated in the aircraft) are certainly not qualified to judge the materials in the first place. 9P

THE PARADIGM SHIFT REQUIRED Leadership in the FAA knows they have a problem with LODAs and knows that the process needs repair. But of course they have a set of boundaries that they need to work within. As it was put to me by Mark Giron, an Aviation Safety Inspector in FAA Headquarters General Aviation Branch (afs-830), “Considering that the LODA requirement is regulatory for being compensated for the use of an experimental aircraft for flight training, and the fact that it is difficult (though not impossible), and time consuming (though worthy of that time if necessary) to amend regulation, what would you recommend for a process by which the FSDO would issue the LODA? In other words, if you could draft the perfect process, what would it look like?” So the goal is to work within the current framework to solve the problem quickly. Changes in regulations are possible, but that could take years. I believe that the tools already exist for a robust training program that takes advantage of CFIs who are capable and willing to train in experimental aircraft. The FAA has a long-running policy of separating “Carrying persons or property for compensation or hire.” (§91.319(a)(2), the exact regulation of concern) from the benefits of flight training. This is probably due some examples, and I have several. The very first example is the Sport Pilot rule itself! (§61.315(c)(2)) Under the list of sport pilot limitations it states very clearly that, “You may not act as a pilot in command of a light-sport aircraft for compensation or hire.” However, sport pilots who are also CFIs do that all of the time with the blessing of the FAA. You might wonder if there might be something in the privileges and limitations of a Sport Pilot CFI that says a CFI can “Carry persons or property for compensation or hire.” Me, too. So I looked. If it’s in there, I haven’t seen it. §61.413 says a sport CFI can “provide training and logbook endorsements for” a whole host of things. But it doesn’t specifically say that a CFI can get paid for it. Of

course that is implied by the regulation. Or maybe that’s what the FAA means by the word ‘provide.’ And the word ‘provide’ is the same word that is used in §91.319(h), so a lazy writer who already made his word count might stop there. After all, it seems that ‘provide’ means ‘carry persons for the root of all evil’ in FAA-speak. Actually, the lowest rating that specifically allows a pilot to “Carry persons or property for compensation or hire” is a commercial rating. Yes, a rating that isn’t even available for weight shift control trikes or powered parachutes. And a ‘regular’ CFI needs to first get that commercial rating before they can instruct. However, they don’t need a second class medical to instruct, a third class medical will do just fine. So while a third class medical won’t do for carrying persons or property for compensation or hire, it is just fine for flight instruction, where evil money regularly changes hands. Another example worth noting is the training exemptions to Part 103. Before 2008, many of the sport pilot instructors of today were operating as exempt Part 103 instructors. There was no regulation that allowed for Part 103 instructors and the aircraft weren’t certified, but the FAA recognized the need and allowed instructors to operate. And that isn’t just the past tense, either. The footlaunch ultralight world still has FAA exemptions held by organizations such as the United States Powered Paragliding Association and the United States Hang Gliding and Paragliding Association. There isn’t anything in the regulations allowing for flight instruction in ‘two seat ultralights,’ but it makes good sense from a safety point of view. The “Carry persons or property for compensation or hire” is not an iron-clad rule when it comes to training and —I like to think— for good reason. So the key is to focus on training requirements since training really is the foundation of safety. Anything that stands in the way of flight instruction really is also getting in the way of safety.

A SOLUTION So the solution is simple. Yes, the regulations require a LODA in order to charge for an aircraft for training. But the regulations don’t require a huge amount of complexity. The complexity has been added in later and it needs to be reduced. After all, the regulations simply say, “The FAA may issue deviation authority providing relief from the provisions of paragraph (a) of this section for the purpose of conducting flight training. The FAA will issue this deviation authority as a letter of deviation authority.” The regulation does not say that the application has to be one page, ten pages or two pounds. It does say, “complete description,” but a complete description can be done in a paragraph or two. A complete description doesn’t require lesson plans, maintenance plans, facility plans, environmental impact statements, or an equal opportunity hiring policy. It also doesn’t say that the LODA itself has to level a virgin forest in order to be printed out. A one-page request letter and a one-page LODA would meet the regulatory requirement, especially for simpler aircraft like light sport aircraft. The KISS principle (Keep It Simple Stupid) really does work. The local FSDO may or may not be part of the issuing process. There are plenty of people who believe that many of the local safety inspectors are hostile to sport aviation and do more to hinder than help sport aviation. Those people would like to remove the authority for issuing LODAs from the local FSDOs. They have good reason to desire that because many inspectors have in fact been hostile and are not fans of sport aviation, particularly gyroplanes. Alternatively, it may be better to make it easier policywise for inspectors to issue the LODA than to not issue it. A LODA should be there for the asking unless a CFI has a poor training record. If a local inspector wants to deny a LODA, they should have to provide a report detailing why they don’t think a LODA should be issued and that report should be available to the CFI along with the right to appeal the decision. That would keep the local FSDO in the loop, but encourage them to be more helpful safety-wise. But the solution really requires a little bit more than that. Flight instructors should be able to provide flight training for more than just transition training in experimental aircraft. And they should be able to take a student all of the way from student pilot status through at least the sport pilot level. That means being able to rent the student an experimental aircraft for the purpose of solo training. As long as a student is progressing through the training and pursuing a rating, training aircraft rental needs to be in the picture. There are at least four reasons for this: 1. If a student has been receiving dual training in a particular aircraft, it is less safe to have them solo in a different aircraft. It especially defeats the purpose of training in a LODA aircraft when a student has sought out an instructor because the CFI offers flight training in a particular make and model that the student either owns or is planning on purchasing. 2. Solo flight is a big step as it is. It is a common place for students to desert their training program. If the March 2014 Aviators Hot Line • www.aviatorshotline.com

solo is made even scarier by forcing a student into unfamiliar aircraft, more students will be lost at this critical juncture. 3. In order to make flight instruction viable, CFIs need to be able to provide a variety of training services. If a CFI can only take a student partway through the training, they are not going to be doing their students any good and they probably won’t be able to continue instructing very long. Remember, the goal is to get more CFIs actively working with experimental, ultralight, and specialty category aircraft students. These are students that in the past would be trained by exemption holders and not by the local CFI renting the airport’s C172. That exemption system worked and may even be improved upon if the LODA system is overhauled. 4. CFIs should be given credit for what they have achieved. A CFI has invested time, money, and considerable effort to share the gift of flight. Few are making a lot of money at it. Instead they are doing it for the love of the sport. They already have the best intentions, motivations, and the skill set for providing safe training in safe aircraft. That should be acknowledged by the FAA. NOW IS THE TIME The paltry list of LODA-holding CFIs points to a systemic problem with the FAA’s process for issuing LODAs. Confusing rules, inconsistent FAA Safety Inspectors, and sometimes little benefit from the LODA itself all are contributing to a failure to allow flight instructors to assist students in achieving their goals of flight. At best, this just discourages people and they take up a different sport or hobby. In the worst of cases, it results in students selfteaching and ending up hurt or dead. It is a problem that is well within the scope of current regulations to be solved and should be solved as soon as possible.

THE “REAL” LSA MARKET & FUTURE GROWTH by Dan Johnson

n talks I give at airshows, I’ve begun to focus on what I term the “real” LSA market. Many folks are confused and even our ByDanJohnson.com statistics and articles about market share ranking add to the fog obscuring the big picture. The chart below attempts to burn off that fog and provide a clearer understanding. However, the table — meant for use when I proceeded line by line in a live presentation — needs some explanations.

Fig. 1

The chart attempts two tricks. The first goal was to contrast general aviation (GA) with Light-Sport aviation. We compare only to single engine piston GA aircraft as we saw that as the closest match. So the chart has at top left, a figure of 790, which is the number of Type Certified general aviation aircraft delivered in 2012, the latest full year of information at the time of the chart’s creation. Come down one line to see the total of Special LSA airplanes registered in 2012, again noting that LSA report registrations where the GA industry states deliveries; these two stats are not identical but are close enough for the purposes of this discussion. As you can see, the industry registered 259 aircraft. The term “Ratio” relates 259 to 790, showing LSA registrations to be about a third of GA single engine piston aircraft delivery. The term “Share” means the LSA portion of the sum of 790 + 259 or 1,049 total single engine piston aircraft. Secondly, however, SLSA “airplanes” are not all the “aircraft” in the LSA fleet. “Airplanes” refer to fixed wing, three axis ... basically more conventional aircraft. “Alternative LSA” refers to weight shift, powered parachute, gyroplane, and glider categories that add more registrations. We do not include the latter group in our market share rankings as the FAA database on these aircraft are suspect. The reason is the many different models and names and a general lack of database entry clerk awareness of them coupled with registration applications that likely confuse those clerks with different naming conventions. For example, a trike with a different wing is a 14P

somewhat different model but could use the same or a different name. Powered parachutes can be equally baffling to the uninitiated. Even though we can’t count them reliably (so we skip them, with regrets to those enthusiasts), they are real and they are being sold. They add an average of another 50 or more SLSA per year, which represents a bit over 6% of all GA aircraft sold. Then, we have to add ELSA or Experimental (not factory built) LSA. More are coming but Van’s Aircraft’s RV-12 presently dominates this field, having registered 203 units by the end of 2012. All told, ELSA add an average of 74 units per year, which is nearly 10% of all general aviation single engine pistons delivered. Sum these groups and you have an estimated 383 registrations of LSA types in 2012, a figure that is nearly half of the GA single engine pistons and a third of all aircraft manufactured in 2012. Yet, as the late night infomercials boast, “That’s still not all!” Adding to the total of LSA aircraft are many former two seat ultralights that were registered as a kind of special ELSA during a grace period. That period ended some years ago, so no more will be added, but we estimate that at least 4,500 examples are still flying. Add them all and you see more than 8,000 Light-Sport Aircraft, which accounts for about 5% of the entire single engine piston fleet in the USA ... but that still doesn’t fully describe the sector. We finish the picture by noting that many Experimental Amateur Built (the so-called 51% rule airplanes) can be flown by someone possessing a Sport Pilot certificate or using a higher certificate without a medical to operate as a Sport Pilot. We don’t provide an estimate, but cautiously call this “thousands” more. Many people call these “Light-Sport Aircraft” but they are not; they are EABs. Likewise some folks still call the Sport Pilot certificate a “Light-Sport license,” which is an incorrect term. We prefer to call these “Sport Pilot-eligible” aircraft using a phrase coined by EAA staffer Ron Wagner. We hope the chart (Fig. 1) helps to clarify the true size of the LSA market. Remember, these figures only refer to the United States. Many thousands more fly in other countries. Next, let’s look to the future. The graphical chart comes from Barr Group Aerospace. Chart lovers can find many more at http://www.bgaaeroweb.com/General-Aviation.html#MFG focused on general aviation (most of the info is for larger, working aircraft). The following chart shows the history — including the plunge from 2007 figures to the depths of 2010, a slide of greater than 50%. It also gazes into a crystal ball and attempts to show future trends. Right or wrong, the view of the statisticians behind this chart suggests a strong role for Light-Sport Aircraft at about 23% of all aircraft including jets and Experimentals. Jets are expected to grow as are www.aviatorshotline.com • Aviators Hot Line March 2014

Special Light Aviation Sun 'n Fun Print Edition

Experimentals. It looks less rosy for piston and turboprop perhaps as LSA and EABs will capture some of these sales. Then, we have to contemplate the arrival of a new wave of four seat or larger aircraft from the flock of non-legacy companies currently building two seat LSA ... but that’s a story for another article. ABOUT THE AUTHOR DAN JOHNSON has been called “the leading reviewer of recreational aircraft.” He has evaluated more than 360 aircraft in many leading magazines. A 5,000-hour Commercial, Instrument, Multi-Engine Pilot and former Certified Flight Instructor, Dan’s focus today is on Light-Sport Aircraft, ultralight aircraft, and homebuilt aircraft that Sport Pilots may fly.

Discover the

RV-12 EXPO

An extensive program of classes, workshops and events designed to appeal to the whole community of RV-12 builders, owners and pilots. by Carol Carpenter

arking a year of rapid growth since launching the availability of the SLSA version of the RV-12, Van’s Aircraft and Synergy Aircraft announce the RV-12 Expo. The event will be held June 17-21, 2014 at Sunriver Resort in Oregon, a beautiful resort community, which is 15 miles south of Bend, OR. – What a great place to hold this event, with the wooded setting, paved bike paths, swimming, and golf. And, more importantly, the Expo will offer a variety of aviation educational opportunities rolled into one great week! You may plan to attend for the entire week or just a day or two. Want to do your own annual inspection on your

Experimental Light Sport Aircraft (ELSA) RV-12? Take the FAA approved 16 hour Repairman Inspection Workshop offered by Rainbow Aviation during the EXPO. (June 17-18). The workshop can be taken before you complete your kit and, in fact, this is the optimum time to complete the training. Successful completion of the LSA Repairman Inspection course, allows you to apply for an FAA Repairman Certificate for any Experimental Light Sport Aircraft which you own or any ELSA you purchase in the future. Once the aircraft is listed on your repairman certificate, you are allowed to do the condition inspection each year. You do not have to be the builder. You simply have to have successful completion the 16 hour training course for ELSA Repairman Inspection and be the owner of the aircraft. There is no expiration date on the certificate of course completion. You do not need to currently own an 22P

ELSA to take the workshop. In fact, this is a great first step to light sport aviation. Additionally, Rainbow Aviation Service will be presenting a one day workshop on June 19 focusing on the Rotax 912. Pre-registration is required for either workshop. For more information or to register for the Rainbow Aviation workshops contact them directly at 530-824-0644 or email info@rainbowaviation.com. Seating is limited. If you are currently building; a variety of workshops are available to provide tricks and tips that will help you fin-

ish your kit quickly and with a professionally built quality. Flying opportunities will also be available in the RV-12 with factory demo pilots available in many forms: Two SLSA RV-12’s will be available for transition training and Bi-Annual flight reviews at additional cost. Flights are schedule on a first come, first serve basis by contacting Steve Bolton or Paul Lancaster at Lane Aviation Academy: (541) 463-4195. Lunch and dinner will be included on June 20-21 for those attending. RV-12 EXPO at the Sunriver Resort offers the perfect backdrop for your vacation while providing a social gathering with other people who love building and flying airplanes. Take advantage of the opportunity to connect and network with experts in the industry, RV-12 owners and builders. Let the fun begin!
