They received certification now to produce an SLSA lightning. *That is complete off the showroom floor. (actually, you preorder) Or, you can use builder-assist, and produce the same product. Now you've got an ELSA lightning. But they're *both* an Arion Lightning LSA. Or...you can put on wheel pants, omitt the winglets, add high performance prop, and now you've got an Arion lightning airplane, but not LSA. This scenerio is underway at many LSA plants across the world today. And it is still apples and oranges to the discussion. -- Jim Pennino Remove .spam.sux to reply.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - http://www.google.com/url?sa=D&q=htt...Hz6LqeNKTPQtAw http://www.google.com/url?sa=D&q=htt...TiDcdqrH8Eefeg |

That answer is patently wrong and I've given you the link here to prove it. The manufacturer may send out paperwork as to allowable mods, and given the certification, you can do it yourself. OK, I see the problem here. You haven't a clue what the word "modification" means in terms of airplanes. -- Jim Pennino http://www.google.com/url?sa=D&q=htt...otmag.com/pilo.... http://www.google.com/url?sa=D&q=htt...llc.com/51perc.... |

Nope, not for a LSA. -- Jim Pennino An LSA? *Which type. ELSA? *SLSA? True for one, not for the other, but no is the wrong answer. It doesn't matter what kind of LSA it is, modifications are not allowed to be done to LSA's. I'm sorry Jim. *Your command of the English Language, The problem is the word "modification" has a particular legal meaning when it comes to airplanes and you don't understand that. The English dictionary definition of "modification" is not the FAA legal definition. -- Jim Pennino http://www.google.com/url?sa=D&q=htt...otmag.com/pilo.... http://www.google.com/url?sa=D&q=htt...llc.com/51perc.... |

It does not matter how many previous owners a project may have had - as long as each owner intended to build the aircraft for their own education or recreation - if you can document or show documentation of the work that each did, it is as if YOU did the work!" |

The Faa definition of "mods" is defined in this case as those which the original manufacturer offers, or any other subsequent modifications which are allowable by the Faa. Other modifications are restricted to non faa jurisdictions. --- |
