Not really...some of them got approved in the 1930's and 40's...

I think it's too soon for the airplanes. Didn't the first ones just
get approved at sun-n-fun in the last week or so? Give them a month
or three.

Is anyone seeing Light-Sport Aircraft showing up at their local airports?
Have you met anyone with the new Sport Pilot license?

I think there is some confusion between "Sport Aircraft" of which only
one is now certified and "aircraft Sport Pilots can fly" of which there
are many.

Those aircraft, such as cubs and champs, are standard category
aircraft that can be flown under the sport pilot rule.

He was reffering to LSA's which there are few if any out there.
