Light Aircraft

A light aircraft is a small, generally single-engine airplane designed for personal, recreational, or short-distance travel. Typically weighing less than 12,500 pounds, they are easier to operate and maintain than larger commercial jets. Light aircraft are used by private pilots, flight schools, and for aerial photography or inspection work. They offer flexibility for pilots due to their size, enabling access to smaller airports and remote locations. Despite their smaller size, they adhere to strict safety regulations and play a vital role in general aviation, providing cost-effective and accessible air travel options for individuals and organizations.
