I'm interested in taking the FAA class so I can work on my airplane. It is a factory built CH650. Has anyone done this? Any recommendations?

Thanks!

Talk to Brian and Carol at rainbowaviation.com

Thank you for the suggestion. I'll check it out.

I have done it with my AMD built 601XL

Took brian and Carol's class. They travel around the country. Go to Rainbow Aviation website for more info.

There are two classes. A 16 hour for inspection of ELSA aircraft, and 120 hour class for SLSA Repairman.

I changed my SLSA to ELSA, took the 16 hour class.

An experimental can be worked on by anyone.

A SLSA has to be worked on by A & P or SLSA Repairman.

If you need any more info email me direct at dothetime@hotmail.com

That sounds like a great plan. I'll definitely look into it.

Jay, saw your note on slsa to elsa. Just curious if you went through the process and what was involved ?

Thanks

Jim

I haven't done it yet. My annual is due this month so I want to do it afterwards. I'll keep you posted.

Stan Cooper did it to his airplane. He's on this list so you could communicate with him. He sent me some good info.

Ok may reach out to him. Looks like you are in spring, I frequently fly to 09r where property is located.

Hi Jim,

You should have an email from me describing my S-LSA to E-LSA conversion experience. Let me know if you have any questions.

I received it, thanks for the detailed information

Jim
