Startup Wasatch Aero Plans New Turboprop Trainers via Mosaic Pathway
Original: Startup Wasatch Aero Sees Mosaic Pathway To New Turboprop Trainers
Aviation startup Wasatch Aero says it is pursuing development of a new turboprop trainer aircraft through the FAA's MOSAIC regulatory pathway, according to Aviation Week. The company, part of a wave of startups targeting pilot-training aircraft, argues updated light-sport rules could open a faster, lower-cost route to certifying modern trainers as demand for pilot training capacity grows across the industry.
Why now: The FAA's new MOSAIC light-sport rules are prompting startups to pitch cheaper, faster routes to certifying trainer aircraft.
