will provide specific information about the LSA's on Tour," Park

recreational flying time, can be counted towards getting a private
pilot license," according to Park. "Sport pilot is the new
and exciting way to get involved in flying with less time and
expense. The LSA tour is designed to help introduce people to the
sport pilot revolution," Park said. "It's easy, affordable,
safe and fun; and obtaining a sport pilot license can cut the cost
