Light Sport Aircraft Pilot is a directory of aircraft that generally fit
into what are described as ultralight aircraft, advanced ultralight
aircraft,
light sport aircraft, experimental light sport aircraft, experimental
aircraft, amateur built aircraft, ELSA or homebuilt
aircraft in the United States and Canada. These include
weight shift aircraft, more commonly known as trikes,
powered parachutes, and powered para-gliders.

Aircraft Weight and
Balance Handbook (FAA-H-8083-1A).pdf
Weight and balance, two of
the most important factors affecting flight safety, are
thoroughly discussed in this official FAA handbook.
Indispensable for those responsible for aircraft weight
distribution?the engineers, designers, pilots, and aviation
maintenance technicians?this guide clearly explains how to
correctly determine the weight and center of gravity for any
type of aircraft, including the new light-sport aircraft
(LSA) and very light jet (VLJ) categories.
Many test
questions for the FAA Knowledge Exams for pilots come
directly from this colorful, fully indexed guide.
