In this episode, I’m sharing my top 5 list of the cheapest light-sport and light aircraft models (brand new, used, or without piston engines), focusing on less popular companies and brands. I’ll also include their current price and technical specifications. Check out my choice for the top aircraft near the end of the video!
A light-sport aircraft is defined by the FAA as a small, low-power airplane with lower operational demands. In the US, they’re often called LSAs. LSAs are a special class of ultralight aircraft built from kits or plans and can be flown by anyone with a sport pilot certificate.
