Would you like to own an aircraft with half the cost of a
traditional aircraft? I definitely would! You can build your own airplane; they
are called Kit aircraft. This would be qualified as a light sport aircraft.
These light sport aircraft are usually VFR rated only .they may not go as high
or as fast as a typical aircraft, but you can still get up in the air! Typically,
this would be better for the beginner aviation enthusiast because you can get a
light sport license, which can take less time and money to earn. People with
health problems that cannot classify for a third class medical can have an
easier time applying for a light sport license. Usually, if you have a driver’s
license you can qualify! These light sport aircraft can cost about the same as
a mid-range new car. You can build a kit airplane and about 1500 hours of labor.
