  LSA

If you think LSA's "newness" has you confused, try being a PMA parts manufacturer.  We've sought the FAA's guidance on what is required for "certification" of replacement parts on S-LSA certified aircraft and this is what we've been told VERBATIM:

FAR 91.327(b)5 which reads, "Each alteration accomplished after the aircraft's date of manufacture meets the applicable and current consensus standard and has been authorized by either the manufacturer or a person acceptable to the FAA."  therefore, we have sought authorization from all currently certified LSA manufacturers using Rotax four-stroke engines.  Click Here to see a list of manufactures and copies of their authorization(s) to use Sky-Tec Rotax starters on their LSA certified aircraft.
