David Oord, Experimental Aircraft Association (6/7/11)
The new LODA order is out. Yay. This is the order that allows local FSDO's to write letters of deviation authority for flight instructors to provide flight instruction in experimental aircraft. There are some good things in the order, especially for gyroplanes. It is very close to the document that sport pilot CFI's needed in 2009. Unfortunately it is now 2011. David Oord talks about the order, what is good in it and how instructors can apply for a LODA so that they can get instructing again.
Dick Knapinski, Experimental Aircraft Association (5/10/11)
International Learn to Fly Day is coming up soon. The event is a cooperative begun by the EAA of pilots, companies, governments, and organizations in countries around the world to raise interest in flying and encourage current pilots to get others involved in aviation. Dick Knapinski from the EAA talks about how you can get involved.
Sean Elliott, Experimental Aircraft Association (3/29/11)
EAA's 2011 Report to Homebuilders was published a little over a week ago and there are some interesting facts that came out of it. Sean Elliot joins us to talk about the good news that the number of registered Amateur-Built Experimental aircraft have increased as have the numbers of hours flown in those aircraft. Better yet, the accident and fatal-accident rates in these aircraft have improved more than in any other segment in the U.S. Aviation fleet.
Rod Hightower, Experimental Aircraft Association (3/8/11)
Every week it seems that we hear about something else that is wrong with aviation. This week we talk about something that actually is working well in aviation, the EAA's Young Eagles Program. As it turns out, youth who have participated in the Young Eagles Program are five times more likely to become pilots. First time guest on the show, Rod Hightower talks about the data and what it could mean for aviation.
David Oord, Experimental Aircraft Association (3/1/11)
The EAA-FAA summit has wrapped up and we talk with David Oord about the topics covered and the changes we can hope to see in FAA policy.
David Oord, Experimental Aircraft Association (2/15/11)
The EAA, AOPA, GAMA, and NAFI have petitioned the FAA to amend the federal aviation regulations (14 CFR Part 61) so that flight hours accrued while earning a Sport Pilot certificate can count toward additional ratings and certificates.
David Oord, Experimental Aircraft Association (2/8/11)
The midwinter summit between the FAA and the EAA is a major event that is only open to the executives of the two organizations. It's a time for the organizations to address important flying community issues. David Oord joins us to talk about some of the ongoing issues for the sport flying community that have needed to be addressed and why this forum is one of the most important ones for citizen aviators.
Sebring’s Over… but Next: Florida LSA Tour
Every now and then the marketing geniuses in Light-Sport aviation have an exceptionally good idea. Here’s one of them. Initially organized by SportairUSA’s Bill Canino and now-American Legend marketer Dave Graham (formerly of Gobosh), a flock of planes including five of the most popular brand names will set off for Sebring-After-Sebring… or what they are calling The 2011 Florida ...
Brian Carpenter, Rainbow Aviation Services (12/28/10)
We catch up with Brian Carpenter to talk about the series of videos he has done with the EAA called 'Hints for Homebuilders.' You'll find links to many of those videos on the PSF Magazine web site. We also talk about recent trends for maintenance training in the light sport world.
