In addition to appearing below, the communication is attached as a Word doc ument or a PDF file. --LSA Marketing Group via the weblist of ByDanJohnson.com To be removed from this list, please contact: Dan@ByDanJohnson.com Be sure to note that you are subscribed as: info@flylightning.net. ************************************************************** March 25, 2014 Dear LSA Manufacturer or Business Person: [see attached PDF files -- 2] This letter makes an URGENT REQUEST of you. You must act in less than 5 day s. We regret last-minute requests, especially while you may be rushing to prep are for Sun 'n Fun. However, we only heard about this potentially damaging FAA policy draft recently and we hastened to study the document and prepare a response. What we are asking of you is to write a comment to FAA resisting this unnec essary action. We attach a Word document written by LAMA board member Phil Solomon. His effort can help you to do this quickly and with less effort th at starting from scratch on your own. However, we caution you to use your o wn words and not merely copy Phil's letter. Note that failing to comment could mean greater restrictions on your use of LSA and on your ability to sell these aircraft. Since we believe no safety argument exists to support this new, proposed restriction, we urge you to comment. In our effort to blunt FAA actions in this matter -- while we also try to m ove forward on the positive front of possible commercial use of LSA -- our collaborator has been Roy Beisswenger representing the USUA, a pilot organi zation. Roy is also the publisher of Powered Sport Flying magazine and rece ntly posted this light-hearted article about the FAA policy draft. Have a l ook: http://www.psfmagazine.com/2014/03/more-proposed-faa-policy/ Besides resisting FAA restrictions, LAMA and USUA will be holding a Safety Conference with many organizations and several FAA representatives at Sun ' n Fun. Our goal is to work within the system to improve your business outlo ok. These actions are being taken by LAMA in support of the LSA and light k it industry. Your support of LAMA through membership will help us continue this work. If your business is not a member please consider joining.
