FAA rules

Well now that the FAA has changed there rules for flying, I may just rush right out and get me one of these $139,000 planes from Icon. I have always thought it would be fun to fly, but honestly, if I was going to do it I would not want the restrictions. Still, this is better than nothing at all.



An Sport Pilot License takes roughly 1/2 the time of a general aviation license and also about 1/3rd the cost. What about safety? Well a SPL plane isn’t allowed to go above 138mph, can only carry 2 passengers and can only be flown in good weather, during the day and not near a busy airport like Los Angeles International.
