FlyStim - Switzerland came to their senses about two years ago I believe.
Great news if it's true
Genghis, but are you quite sure? According to the very useful
European Microlight Federation site:
Microlight flying is not allowed in Switzerland (including Liechtenstein).
However since September 26th 2002 the SMF, together with AeCS and BAZL (Luftfahrtamt) are talking of allowing microlights into Switzerland.
Probably in 2005 there will be a Ecolight class, comparable to the Light Sport Aircraft in the USA.
There is also an outfit called the BMAA which publishes a document
here which says the same thing.
If this restriction really has been removed then it is good news indeed. I flew through some beautiful Swiss mountain valleys last year in a SEP machine and it would be nice to repeat the experience when I'm down at Habsheim in a few weeks in the microlight.
