Hi,
I am looking for a CFI that is willing to train a sport's pilot in an LSA ultralight (not 103 compliant). I would consider either training in the CFI's aircraft or in my own. Please let me know if there is anyone you can connect me with.
Thank you,
Samuel

Dave, unfortunately I personally do not know any USUA instructors in NJ. Even the USUA which is located in Lewes Delaware about 2 hours from our area does not list any in Delaware. The FAA lists Light sport aircraft flight instructors and there are two listed for NJ. http://www.faa.gov/licenses_certificates/airmen_certification/spo

Hello from Morris , NJ. So it appears trying to find ultralight instruction outside of CA or FL is like finding a needle in a haystack. Are there any recommendations in the New Jersey area that are not defunct? I am looking for an USUA ultralight certification.

Sorry for the delayed response Gil We meet the last Monday of every month at the Brick Civic Plaza 270 Chambers Bridge Rd Brick township NJ and most of the members fly out of Pemberton Airport near joint base McGuire Dix Lakehurst we have a member that owns a challenger two place and may possibly give you a ride in the front seat. You would have to meet him at one of our monthly meetings and ask him.

Part 103 of the of the FAR Federal Aviation Regulations explains the criteria for the ultralight category. The short short answer is the weight of aircraft cannot exceed 254 pounds (empty weight) and the fuel capacity cannot exceed 5 gallons. The aircraft cannot be capable to exceed 55 knots (calibrated) lastly had the power off stall speed which does not exceed 24 knots.
