Building an experimental Light Sport Aircraft LSA

Have you been dreaming about flying all your life but just couldn’t afford the high cost of flying GA aircraft?  Well, Light Sport Aircraft is just the thing for you.  Getting your light sport aircraft license is about half the cost of a private pilot’s ticket.  No medical examine needed, just a valid drivers license.

While there are many different brands and styles out there to choose from, Challenger light sport aircraft are probably the most popular.  Easy to build, easy to fly, low maintenance and best of all low operating cost.  An average Challenger LSA burns approx. 4 gals. or less per hour of the same gas you put in your vehicle.  No need to go to the local airport for 100LL fuel. Also no need to rent an expensive hanger, if you have the room just park it in the back yard.  A runway of at least 1000′ is needed to safely land your Light Sport Aircraft.  I prefer 1200-1500′ just in case you’re coming in a little hot. Safety should always be your first consideration.

Flying has to be a passion that some people are just born with.  I can remember as a small boy dreaming of the day I could fly an airplane.  My only regret is that I waited until I was 50 years old to do it.  Hope this site is helpful.
