It is worth noting that LSA is suitable for low-altitude flight within 3000 meters in actual operation. Recently, low-altitude aircraft such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have interfered with the route operation of many airports across the country, and accidents such as LSA flight crashes and plane collisions are also common, which makes its safety issues attract much attention.
After building a training platform for maritime professionals, Chongqing is expanding this boundary to LSA field to promote the popularization of air sports.
On May 26th, the reporter of National Business Daily learned from the management committee of Liangjiang New Area that several companies in Chengdu and Chongqing Liangjiang Airport Management Co., Ltd. have signed a four-party agreement to start the pilot training plan by introducing the famous German rotorcraft MTO light sport aircraft.
According to relevant sources, although LSA is a "small place" in the aircraft world, it accounts for nearly a quarter of the 400,000 general aviation aircraft in the world. Most foreign professional pilots began to contact aviation from sports flight and eventually entered the professional field.
Due to the high cost of airspace use and airport management, the current market price of SPL (Sports Pilot License) in China is about 6.5438+0.6 million yuan. After physical examination, theoretical examination and 40-hour qualified flight time certification, the SPL will be awarded by the Civil Aviation Administration of China as soon as 654.38+0.2 this year.
It is worth mentioning that the LSA test is very strict, and the theoretical test includes aerodynamics, aviation meteorology, engine principle, aviation medicine and so on. There are dozens of flight subjects, including take-off, landing and taxiing. , can not be passed at one time, but each subject must accumulate qualified flight time before passing.
In fact, Chongqing is not the first city to promote the popularization of air movement.
According to the Wuhan Evening News, the German Papillion air movement Company planned to build the Yun Qi (Wuhan) International air movement Base in June 5438+February last year to push ordinary people to "fly into the blue sky".

According to the requirements of the State Council, the General Administration of Sports has studied and formulated a series of sports industry development plans that are compatible with the Guiding Opinions, including the industrial development plan of air sports, and increased the construction index of aviation flight camps.
It is believed that with more policy signals, the truly popular air sports will be popularized, which will also promote the further development of the aviation industry.

It is worth noting that LSA is suitable for low-altitude flight within 3000 meters in actual operation, and recently low-altitude aircraft such as drones have caused interference to the route operation of many airports across the country; Accidents such as plane crash and plane collision of LSA flight are also frequently reported in newspapers, which also makes its safety problems attract much attention.
