The FAA has finally released the final SLA regulations for gliders.

The Gross is now 1320 pounds, the Vne is 120 knots.

It seems like good news. Any comments?

Good news for most - but the 10,000 MSL limit pretty much restricts
soaring here in the mountains (and isolates a few airports like
Jackson Hole). Maybe in time the FAA will allow an add on rating for
LSA glider pilots?
