From the July 2025 Edition of Plane & Pilot:
While attending the Sun ’n Fun Aerospace Expo back in April, I had the pleasure of meeting and spending time with Mr. Light Sport himself, Dan Johnson.
Many of you may know Johnson from his monthly Plane & Pilot columns and website, bydanjohnson.com, a popular light sport resource that will soon be integrated into the P&P website.
Since Johnson is working his way toward retirement, he is handing the baton off to people such as myself to continue the mission of telling the story of these light sport aircraft (LSA).
However, my experience with light sport is fairly limited, so Johnson knew we had to make the most of our two hours together at the airshow.
