Flight Design Earns EASA Type Certificate For CTLS
Great News for Flight Schools, Permit-to-Fly Operators and More
Friedrichshafen, GERMANY (AERO Fair) / 18 April 2012 — As a means of demonstrating the company’s commitment to excellence, Flight Design is exceedingly pleased to announce they have shown compliance and have been granted, just prior to the start of AERO, the EASA Restricted Type Certificate, (R)TC, for their CTLS Light Sport Aircraft. The issuance of the actual Restricted Type Certificate for the aircraft through EASA is now an administrative formality and will occur within the next few days.
“Validation by outside, independent organizations provides our customers with a high level of assurance our aircraft are engineered and built to the highest standards,” said Matthias Betsch, CEO of Flight Design GmbH. “Having EASA now declare our successful completion and demonstration of compliance by our EASA-approved Design Organization was demanding and a high bar to clear, but we are fortunate to have a very talented staff, led by Technical Director, Oliver Reinhardt, who have helped Fight Design forge a strong and trusting relationship with the European Aviation Safety Agency and our growing family of customers.”
“For Flight Design enthusiasts around the world, the (R)TC gives additional proof that Flight Design is a leading manufacturer of light aircraft,” noted John Doman, Director of Business Development, Global Sales & Marketing for Flight Design GmbH. “For European flight schools and pilots flying aircraft under Permit-to-Fly rules, the (R)TC will enable additional aircraft utilization leading to more revenue and value for their purchase of a Flight Design (R)TC aircraft.” The Type Certificated version of the CTLS will be distributed under the variant name CTLS-ELA and is nearly identical to the best-selling CTLS-LSA marketed throughout the world. Compliance has been shown against EASA CS-LSA which makes wide use of the established ASTM requirements for Light Sport Aircraft, which are accepted in the USA , Europe and many other countries throughout the world.
