From: http://www.faa.gov/news/aviation_news/2008/media/marapr2008.pdf
FAA Notice 8900.15, available on the FAA Internet Web site, www.faa.gov, explains the process. The notice states, in part:
"Training deviations will be issued only for training that cannot be conducted in aircraft holding standard airworthiness certificates. Training such as aerobatics, tail wheel transition, or high performance/complex transition can be conducted in aircraft holding standard airworthiness certificates and are therefore not acceptable. Acceptable training is:
(1) Experimental aircraft specific make and model initial training.
(2) Experimental aircraft specific make and model recurrent training.
(3) Jet unusual attitude and upset training.
(4) Aircraft specific instrument competence training.
(5) Experimental aircraft specific make and model flight review training.
(6) Experimental aircraft specific make and model formation training.
(7) Other specific training approved by the General Aviation and Commercial Division, AFS-800" [Editor's Note: Flight Standards Service, Washington Headquarters]


From: http://www.faa.gov/about/office_org/field_offices/fsdo/dsm/local_more/newsletter/media/winter2008.pdf


Experimental aircraft owners who wish to allow
their aircraft to be "hired" for flight training will
need to contact the Operations Supervisor at their
local FSDO and apply for an Experimental Aircraft
Flight Training Letter of Deviation as outlined in
FAA Notice N 8900.15. Once that letter is issued,
the aircraft owner may receive compensation for the
flight training use of the aircraft. Remember that the
Letter of Deviation is only required if the owner of
the aircraft wishes to rent his experimental aircraft
to others for transition training. A pilot may receive
flight instruction in his own aircraft (once the initial
flight test period is complete) without specific
authorization. Also, a person may allow others to
use their experimental aircraft for flight training at
any time so long as no fee is charged for the use of
the aircraft.

Rick,

Thanks for posting that.

Of course, just because it comes straight from the FAA doesn't mean it is not erroneous, misleading, and just plain wrong Smile.

For those interested in the LODA process, please note that the FAA News item referring to Notice 8900.15, apparently mis-identified the notice. It appears that the correct notice number is 8700.47 and can be found here:

http://www.ihsaviation.com/faa/N8700-47.pdf

According to this notice, the restrictions placed on the user of a LODA for using an experimental aircraft for training, if they can even get one, are significant. Additionally, IN MY OPINION, the application process is burdensome enough to dissuade mere mortals who are not masochistic.
