I noted with interest the petition the EAA/AOPA is submitting to the FAA regarding a/c with 180 hp or lower w/2 seats being allowed to fly with a pilot's drivers license as a medical...if passed, do you think the value of our birds will appreciate to any degree? I was planning on selling soon but might just wait a few more years if this is the case...your thoughts?
Mark, If you will follow the money. You will realize how much of it LSA manufacturers have dumped into producing LSA qualified aircraft. In which the driver's license medical is the prime selling point. What do you think will happen if the FAA then copped out on the LSA manufactures and upped the weight limit to include heavier aircraft? I am sorry Mark, but I am afraid that this is all only an illusion of smoke and mirrors on behalf of EAA and AOPA.
