  6. As far as I am concerned an ultralight aircraft is any aircraft that is below the 80 knot cruise Anything above in my eyes is a light sports aircraft That how I define the difference any way ,!!
  7. My two bob worth " Yes I feel we have lost our way they sum it up with the story in the sport mag " the Original Goals" I think any aircraft that is faster then 80 kn should be a lsa or expemental class eg : LP / HP defines the difference pretty straight foward to me. u only have to look at the sport pilot mag to see what I am talking about Eg : your flat out finding story or information on an ultralight aircraft most are LSA or expermental I think we have come along way with our flying priviledges and rights that is a good thing but I think that we should be looking at the way we are classing our aircraft eg a Super cub is no ultralight aircraft to my way of thinking . thanks "just my two bob worth " Doug Evans
