Tom Charpentier
Brief Description:
For our Nov EAA Chapter 92 meeting, join us for a replay of a seminar presentation by the EAA Government Advocacy Staff on the changes in the FAA rules governing the Light Sport Pilot Certificate privileges, and the Light Sport Aircraft definition and design rules.
MOSAIC is done. After more than a decade of work by EAA, the FAA, and numerous others, MOSAIC (Modernization of Special Airworthiness Certification) is now a final rule. A generation after the creation of the original Sport Pilot and Light-Sport Aircraft (LSA) rules, we now welcome Sport Pilot 2.0 and LSA 2.0. On October 22nd, 2025, about three-quarters of the general aviation fleet will be accessible to sport pilots and those exercising Sport Pilot privileges. On July 24th, 2026, new and modern aircraft will begin entering the fleet with minimal certification costs.
