NorthEast Planes Aviation will be offering a light sports aircraft for rent and training beginning in November.
The aircraft is a Tecnam Bravo, a high-wing, tricycle gear, two-seater with late model avionics.
This will allow NorthEast to train pilots for light sport licenses, which has some advantages over regular pilot training, since only half the training time is mandatory and no medical is required -- only a valid driver's license, said owner Elliott Arthur.
Light sports pilots cannot fly at night or bad weather, but there are no distance limitations.
The new airplane can be flown by private pilots and student pilots.
Arthur said he had four students achieve solo flight status this past season, including Heath Kuntz and Cleat Young of Fort Morgan.
For more information on how to become a pilot, contact NorthEast at 970-847-3227 or toll free at 888-981-8808.
