EAA is always working on numerous advocacy issues on behalf of our individual members, chapters, and the GA community as a whole.
Our work is motivated by our goal of lowering barriers to aviation participation and helping our fellow aviators now and in the future.
Some of our work benefits individual members, some benefits localized communities. Much of our effort, however, addresses concerns shared by all recreational pilots, current and future.
The following is a brief list of a few of EAA’s major advocacy goals:
MOSAIC Proposed Rule Making
MOSAIC, or Modernization of Special Airworthiness Certificates, would expand the utility of light sport aircraft and opportunities for sport pilots.
Drone Policy: Protecting GA Flight Safety and Airspace Access
EAA is working to ensure that the UAS policies are acceptable to the GA community in terms of airspace access and flight safety.
LODA Reform for Experimental, Limited, and Primary Category Aircraft Flight Training & Expansion for Ultralight Training
A new NPRM proposes to formally restore flight training in experimental, limited, and primary category aircraft without requiring a Letter of Deviation Authority (LODA)
Finding an Acceptable Unleaded Fuel for the GA Fleet
EAA continues to work toward a sustainable unleaded replacement for 100LL in light of recent environmental and economic challenges.
