I'm up in St Louis area, not familiar with your area is it near Ft Cambell and where does one stay without wheels if they fly in, if possible. I guess you've recertified from SLSA to ELSA. I have a ELSA RANS 19, will I be using it during the course or does the education received on your CT transfer to other ELSAs? Sorry for the 64$ questions.

kentuckynet Posted April 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 yep, really close to fort campbell kentucky, hopkinsville has lost of good hotels, cheap and expensive. Town has about 30,000 people and the county another 30,000 so there's about everything here but an ACE Hardawre. Yes i recertified my ctsw to ELSA and havent blinked an eye since......its a wonderful thing not having "big brother" insisting on you do it there way or no way!!!!!!!!!! When you take the class you can do any annual inspection on a ELSA that you own. mack brame 270-887-5696 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FastEddieB Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 I took a 16-hour course to get my Light Sport Repairman - Inspection rating. Because it can be confusing... ...the course I took emphasized it was NOT about maintaining or repairing any particular LSA*. If an LSA is an E-LSA, no rating or training is required to work on it, repair it or maintain it. If you want to work on an S-LSA, either your own or someone else's, that's a 120-hour course. Much more money and much more time, natch. The 16-hour course focuses on how to inspect an LSA that you own, so that you can perform the annual condition inspection. You get a certificate that specifies the "N-number" of the plane it pertains to. I did my last annual condition inspection myself (on my E-LSA Sky Arrow). It took about 2 1/2 days and was well worthwhile. *at the course I took, one fellow left the first day as soon as all this was clarified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kentuckynet Posted April 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 yep thats right on the money, that fellow should have read for a minute or two before he paid huh? As far as what i have seen there is "no one" that cares more about my safety than me. As for my annuals i have paid for in the past all have been a joke! I think the class will point out some things i do not know and make it legal for me to annual my aircraft..... Thats why im taking it. mack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Lee Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 You will be an iceberg after the class. You will now know the 1/10th above the surface and now you'll have to go on and learn the other 9/10ths that you'll find out you don't know or the class didn't teach. It's a vicious circle and an enlightening one. I took the class many years ago when it first came out and now look at the hole I have fallen in. Have fun and good luck!
