Popular Attraction To Feature More Than 30 RTF Airplanes
After its successful introduction at last year's AirVenture in
Oshkosh -- and a somewhat-conspicuous absence at the recent
Lakeland Fly-In -- the Experimental Aircraft Association is
bringing its Light Sport Aircraft Mall to the upcoming Northwest
EAA Fly-In in Arlington, WA. The popular event -- held in one of
the most beautiful venues in the lower 48 -- will host the LSA
Mall throughout the Fly-In, July 5-9.
The Light-Sport Aircraft Mall offers the opportunity to view a
variety of new recreational and light-sport aircraft -- all in
ready-to-fly-condition -- in one place. All aviation enthusiasts
are welcome, ranging from experienced pilots to those just
discovering the possibilities of flight, and can have their
questions answered by an EAA sport pilot expert.
"With more than 30 ready-to-fly light-sport aircraft now
available, the LSA Mall at Arlington will offer the best array of
choices for those who want to know more about joining the sport
pilot community," said Charlie Becker, EAA's sport pilot program
manager. "It's a one-stop wealth of information on the sport pilot
rule and the wonderful world of flight available in light-sport
aircraft."
The range of aircraft to be on display includes fixed wings of
every variety plus trikes (weight-shift control), powered
parachutes, and gyros. Industry representatives will be available
to answer all questions about the new sport pilot rule as well as
any questions about the aircraft.
