    Subject: Re: RotaxEngines-Flying LSA into Canada
    I doubt you will ever see the day when an American aviator will be able to fly in Canada on the strength of a driver's license. The reason for that is then TC would then be under pressure to allow the same thing for Canadian pilots. Considering that medicals for driving are the domain of the provinces, I can't see that ever happening. What I think should happen is that American LSA pilots should just fill out the same class 4 declaration that we do and pay their $50.00 registration fee... Then enjoy! Canadian pilots flying south of the 49th are in a bit more of a problem because they might have to get an American drivers license first and the regulations governing our AULA are a bit different than LSA. Perhaps the FAA could inaugurate a same as DL for Canadian pilots heading south... with an appropriate fee of course. I would love to be able to fly my Kitfox to Osh sometime but I'm not holding my breath.

    Noel, Can you clarify what you mean when you suggest that American LSA pilots "should just fill out the same class 4 declaration that we do and pay their $50 registration fee." Sorry, but tI don't understand what you are saying or how it would be helpful. I'm a private pilot in Alaska and would love to be able to fly Canadian airspace. But I don't want to get a medical because if I should happen to fail the medical, I would then not be eligibile to fly even if I am only exercising Light Sport privileges.

    Ken: Flying into Canadian air space is NOT an issue. I have done it when flying to OSH. Even landing at a controlled airport in Canada for gas is not an issue. No special permits required. It only becomes an issue if you land at a non-towered airport or you wish to stay there and leave the immediate vicinity of your plane. Then you have to have all your paper work in order and SOME Canadian officials still want you to have a Radio Station License. Easiest way is to File a Flight Plan. I was in contact with Canadian ATC and during a lull in operations asked them all these questions. They were very helpful and not the least bit concerned.

    Ken: I am a Private Pilot and did it as a private pilot. They never asked what my rating was or if I had an FAA Medical. I guess that would only come up under two situations: 1 - You crash in their air space, 2 - You ASK. Something I have learned over the years: It is easier to beg forgiveness than ask permission.

    It is illegal without a Aviation medical . There was discussion with Transport Canada but nothing has been done. If you do have a issue then you might be flying without insurance as well as you would be without a medical. hence no permit to fly in Canuk airspace.

Noel -----Original Message----- From: owner-rotaxengines-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rotaxengines-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of MacDonald Doug Sent: November 8, 2010 8:46 AM To: rotaxengines-list@matronics.com Subject: RotaxEngines-List: Re: RotaxEngines-Flying LSA into Canada <dougsnash@yahoo.com> My understanding about opperation of LSAs in Canadian airspace is that you must have a private pilots license and a catagory three medical. Then you print off the permission form just like an (Experimental)Amateur Built plane and carry that with you. Back when LSAs first came about, the powers that be at Transport Canada said they were never going to allow pilots to fly without some kind of medical here in Canada. The last time I heard them speak on the subject they said something more like, "We're waiting to see how well it works in the US." That being said, it will likely still be many years before anything happens with allowing Sport Pilot licenses to fly in Canada with a dirver's license medical. Tranpost Canada is running pretty lean these days and they have far bigger fish to fry.
