I’m confused.
At the top, you wrote;
... VL3 of the JMB Aircraft is the most efficient aircraft when it comes to speed. It offers a short landing thanks to its 55-degree flaps angle, 315 KM/H speed
And at the bottom, you wrote:
... The weight of the aircraft must not exceed 1,320 pounds and should not be faster than 138 MPH.
Do you mean there is a speed limit in the sky?? Do they police this?Dont know about sky cops, but if you crash flying a cirrus sr22 and you only have a sport license, your insurance company is going to tell you to get bent.

Comment last edited on about 2 years ago by Badr Berrada Badr Berrada120kts/138mph is the max legal speed for LSA. It is useless to discuss an aircraft with a 315km/h top speed as you cannot legally fly that fast as a sport pilot. A private pilot flying an LSA can exceed the 120kt limit, but not a sport pilot.
Seems that LSA was envisioned as a cheaper way to get into the sky, but reality has proved that the average cost of a new LSA is $130,000. Not cheap for the average guy/gal wanting to fly. The LSA category should be opened up to allow aircraft such as a 172 Or Cherokee to be flown as a 2-place. These are safe, proven aircraft (safer than a lot of LSA’s!) and hopefully the FAA will recognize this and make the needed changes to the LSA rules.
