Tommaso: Good to hear from you. Hope this rather "interesting" year has been profitable. Have been trying to get some serious time into the aircraft building but keep getting dragged back into crazy "junior" situations. It sure does keep one out of the pool halls as well as absent from the hangar. (g) The USA took a giant step this past summer and finally approved the "Light Sport Aircraft" rules. This is heady stuff as it is ushering in a true renaissance in the lower end of the market. Today, the average guy can now buy a NEW LSA aircraft for about the price of a decent SUV and he can also obtain his (admittedly restricted) LSA pilot license within that same budget. I am really jazzed about this as it will bring flight into the average guy's life at a acceptable cost. If you ever thought of flying, now is the perfect time to pursue the dream. Go for it! Best, Earlie
