I perfectly understand the point, which is in discussion as long as EASA exists. Unfortunately, EASA has no access to the translation service of the Commission, nor has EASA been assigned the resources to translate soft law.
Some NAAs and Federations (Aero Clubs) provide translations of essential documents already. Something we very much appreciate.
We are about to enter in a cool-down period for rulemaking related to GA now. E.g. we expect that there is no need to touch Sailplane OPS the next ten years. Consequently, I would expect that more and more training books related to EU air law will be published.

7 years ago PublicHi all,
I wondered if anyone could clear-up some confusion I have about the LSA category.
Recently, several aircraft have been approved under this category (MTOM 600kg), but I wondered what the plan / options were for similar aircraft (i.e. previous / older versions already on the market) which had a national microlight/ULM status (e.g. MTOM 472,5kg)?
For example, could these aircraft be certified as LSAs (e.g., granting MTOM 600kg, ease of flying between Member States like traditional GA, addition of night VFR etc) following necessary documentation and/or modification?
I also wondered if there is / would be a legal framework in the pipeline for LSAs to be given some form of IFR capabilities in the future?
Any help / insight would be appreciated!

Bartosz Fibingier • 7 years agoFor any GA user wishing to learn or refresh their aviation knowledge, I recommend the FAA Safety Team Portal and "Wings Courses (Courses for Pilots!)" Resources: https://www.faasafety.gov/gslac/ALC/course_catalog.aspx
You will find plenty of great materials for GA community. Most are available for free. The downside is, you need to be careful about the legal reference. Those are an FAA based.
In fact, EASA could prepare a similar program for EU pilots. In the US an award system works fine and motivates the community to put some extra effort. A great deal of the available CBTs/e-learnings could be used "As Is". Physics is the same everywhere.
For in-flight icing I recommend NASA training:

Note that the performance of your aeroplane will be affected by the temperature, the take-off distance will increase, specially in the higher airfields. The climb performance is also affected, take it into account when flying in the mountains!. You can read more about density altitude in the latest Safety Promotion material of Sunny Swift: https://www.easa.europa.eu/newsroom-and-events/news/sunny-swift-density…Enjoy your flights!
