    Wow, that is great that you guys got permission to land on the field. I went a few years ago, but had to land at Kingston and get a cab over to Rhinebeck. It's not far (<10 miles), but the shuttling back and forth added a lot of travel time to the day. Parts of the field at Rhinebeck are pretty hilly, so keep your eyes open. You will love the show - lots of great old airplanes and they actually fly a lot of them as long as the winds are low.

    DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Federal Aviation Administration 14 CFR Parts 1, 21, 43, 45, 61, 65, and 91 [Docket No. FAA200111133; Amendment No. 153; 2185; 4339; 4524; 61110; 65 45; 91282] RIN 2120AH19 Certification of Aircraft and Airmen for the Operation of Light-Sport Aircraft AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT. ACTION: Final rule. SUMMARY: The FAA is creating a new rule for the manufacture, certification, operation, and maintenance of lightsport aircraft. Light-sport aircraft weigh less than 1,320 pounds (1,430 pounds for aircraft intended for operation on water) and are heavier and faster than ultralight vehicles and include airplanes, gliders, balloons, powered parachutes, weight-shift-control aircraft, and gyroplanes. This action is necessary to address advances in sport and recreational aviation technology, lack of appropriate regulations for existing aircraft, several petitions for rulemaking, and petitions for exemptions from existing regulations. The intended effect of this action is to provide for the manufacture of safe and economical certificated aircraft that exceed the limits currently allowed by ultralight regulation, and to allow operation of these aircraft by certificated pilots for sport and recreation, to carry a passenger, and to conduct flight training and towing in a safe manner. -------- Leonard Perry Soldotna AK Avid &quot;C&quot; / Mk IV 582 IVO IFA Full Lotus 1260 95% complete Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=127270#127270

    Subject: Re: need engineer type to run a calculation
    John: Like yourself I have heard this for quite a while and I believer there are a few manufacturers who actually certify their planes differently for floats. The reason, as I under stand it, is that in the water the floats do not stress the airframe in any way. In the air, once past 60 mph., the floats actually fly their own weight again removing the stress of the additional weight, which for small planes is around 100Lb. Also like yourself if there is anything written on this I'm interested! An extra hundred lb. (to 1050) would make my float plane a two passenger machine even with my considerable mass aboard. In the meantime I have come close to 950lb....Full fuel and camping gear. > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-kitfox-list-server@matronics.com > [mailto:owner-kitfox-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of jdmcbean > Sent: Thursday, August 02, 2007 11:32 PM > To: kitfox-list@matronics.com > Subject: RE: Kitfox-List: Re: need engineer type to run a calculation > > > <jdmcbean@kitfoxaircraft.com> > > Interesting...

    http://forum.full-lotus.com/viewtopic.php?t the float manufacture seems to be under the impression that FAA allows a 100# increase when you go on floats also... Every certified AC I have had allowed the 100# gross increase when on floats.. the ruling says you get an extra 110#. I may be confused, but if so then everyone who has a floatplane here is too. Bottom line for 99% of the guys here is if they can get it in the plane, then get the plane in the air, they will swear that they are just under gross and could have safely hauled another 50 pounds..if they could not get it off the water, the passenger lied about thier weight.. -------- Leonard Perry Soldotna AK Avid &quot;C&quot; / Mk IV 582 IVO IFA Full Lotus 1260 95% complete Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=127284#127284
