The light-sport aircraft (LSA) turns 10 this year. Few manufacturers have had a bigger impact on the category or enjoyed more success during this first decade than German manufacturer Flight Design GmbH, riding on the evolved wings of its composite high-wing CT microlight/ sport aircraft, introduced in 1997. More than 1,700 have been delivered to date, and late last year, the company unveiled the latest in the CT series, the CTLSi, featuring the new, fuel-efficient, 100 hp injected Rotax 912iS engine. What better way to see how far LSA and this company have come than from the cockpit of the CTLSi during the 10th annual U.S. Sport Aviation Expo at Sebring Regional Airport (SEF) held this past January?
