[Eaa42-list] EAA Priorities

[Rob Stapleton]

I urge my fellow members to respond to the EAA on these issues and offer
your opinions on which are important to you. Go to Oshkosh 365 forums, Sport
Aviation Advocacy Update to respond.


 EAA AirVenture is a major undertaking for your EAA Advocacy staff as it
facilitates hundreds of meetings and introductions between government
officials, industry aircraft owners and pilots. My team works behind the
scenes to facilitate solutions to current barriers to participation and to
provide impetus to new ideas and concepts to make flying more accessible.



*Some* of the focuses for our efforts during this year’s convention
include:

·         The transition to unleaded aviation gasoline

·         Supporting the standards and regulatory needs of electric aircraft

·         Border crossing procedures for private pilots

·         Amateur-built and Light Sport aircraft safety

·         Experimental Exhibition operating limitations

·         Use of experimental aircraft for transition training

·         Implementation of ADSB and its effect on general aviation access
to airspace and airports

·         Through the Fence operations on airports

·         General aviation access to airstrips on government land

·         Sport Pilot training counting toward higher level certificates
