 |
|
A semi related point that needs to be made with regard
to the ELSA cutoff at the end of the month. Although
this point does not likely affect many Zenith
aircraft.
In the US, many Fat ULs are going to be left orphaned
due to not meeting the ELSA cutoff at the end of
January. Please remind your aviation buddies that
might be stuck in this situation that there are
potential sales North of the border.
In Canada our Ultralight regulations are significantly
different than Part 103 in the US. We are allowed up
to 1200lb Gross weight and a stall speed of less than
45mph in landing config.
That being said, most of the fat ULs and two place
planes that will be orphaned by the deadline at the
end of January will still be legal to fly as Basic
Ultralights here in Canada. Registration is a snap
even if the plane is an unregistered US ultralight.
Pay the sales taxes, a $110.00 registration fee, and
go fly. No inspections or hassles involved for Basic
Ultralights.
With the currently strong Canadian dollar this will
present a good opportunity for us Canucks to get a
good deal and provide a solution to the "Lawn
Ornament" issue created if an aircraft doesn't get
it's ELSA certification in time.

the translation.
i.e. I lost patience. Yes I will call EAA
