Seems narrow minded. You and I have very different perceptions of the failure of the LSA industry. That said it’s always great to have each side heard. Best wishes

Hello, I fly a PPG. One of the things that happens when taking off in a PPG is that when the wing is inflating, the trike normally reverses a little. I imagine Powered Parachutes would not do that since their engines are more powerful, and the aircraft is heavier. Once you get the hang of it, a PPG would just as easy to get in the air as a Powered Parachute. PPG pilots normally just fly for about one hour or so. Like the Part 103 says, it's mostly intended for recreation. Very rarely ar PPG's used for competition. And yes, only one occupant.

The FAA cares so little about 103 I doubt the FAA would do anything unless there is an incident. Simply having a single beer and then flying is certainly not going to draw any attention from the FAA. And I'm sure any attempt to seek enforcement action for that would easily be dismissed by an admin law judge. Now the same under part 91 or 130 is a big difference.

So the written test for the sports pilot license is that the same as any sports pilot license? So if I want to transition to a two seater Quad city challenger is that a rating? But the same license? I plan on buying a two seater powered parachute in the future. But I also would like to transition to a fixed wing aircraft. and have both in the future

Congratullations for Easy Fligt lessons... we got this Willian Scott v...channel is about 103 aerolite ultra light flights...take a look to answer my requests...Thanks!!! Jesus bless you!

Flying at night is very important to sport pilots, pushing pilots to leave early in the daytime into hazardous weather is the opposite of promoting a safety culture, FAA needs to fix this immediately!

@@EasyFlight Sorry I couldn't resist making a snarky comment. A college acquaintance of mine in the mid 1970s was killed hang-gliding. He obviously did not have the experience to know when conditions were unsafe and he didn't survive a crash from 50 feet up. Don't get me wrong, I can see the appeal, not unlike motorcycle riding I guess. Powered or unpowered, ultra-lights are just too dangerous for the average Joe in my humble opinion. But to each their own.
