Sport Pilot or Private Pilot certificate? Please help, which one?

I am 16 and would like to fly for a hobby. I also only plan to fly only during day time, clear sky weather. I am very concerned with the safety of flying. So-far I have found that the single-engine, fixed wing S-LSA aircrafts are the safest type of flying of all especially in comparison to a typical private passenger plane. Is this true? Which is safer? I heard of sport planes having a ballistic safety parachute system that deploys. Does this help prevent all accidents?

Sport Pilot cannot add an instrument rating. Must fly VFR.

Sport Pilot must fly at or below 10,000 MSL.

Sport Pilot cannot fly at night.

Sport Pilot cannot fly in Class B airspace (I think all class B; it may be just some class B).

Sport Pilot cannot fly in controlled airspace that requires communication with ATC unless he or she has a sign-off from an instructor that has given the person instruction in radio communications.

Sport Pilot cannot perform the same maintenance tasks as a Private Pilot.

Sport Pilot cannot serve in the same roles as a Private Pilot, such as being the safety pilot for an instrument rated pilot flying under the hood for currency.

Sport Pilot can only fly Light Sport Airplanes (there are also balloons and other types of aircraft; I'm only familiar with LSA). These are limited to 1320 lbs gross weight, 1 passenger, and 120 kts cruise.

Sport Pilot doesn't require a medical certificate, but does require the pilot to be medically qualified to hold a driver's license in his or her state.

Training requirements are about 20 hours less than Private Pilot. Some training can be fulfilled in a non-LSA aircraft, but solo and checkride must be in an LSA.

Aircraft Propulsion $109.5 Aircraft Propulsion is an engineering textbook written for students in aerospace and mechanical engineering. The book covers aircraft gas turbine engine and rocket propulsion from its basic principles to more advanced treatments in engine components. Propulsion system integration with aircraft plays an important role in understanding propulsion and is thus addressed in the book. Extensive review material and derivations are intended to help students navigate through the subject with more ease. Over 100 examples and 300 problems are designed to practice the principles learned in jet propulsion and compliment learning through applications. In every engine component, issues related to manufacturing, material properties, temperature limitations and cooling are included to give students an appreciation for the broader scope of propulsion engineering than just aero-thermodynamics. Component matching and off-design analysis is detailed in a separate chapter to provide the physical and performance linkage between the components and their impact on aircraft engines. Principles of chemical rocket propulsion are presented in the context of single-stage to orbit propulsion needs of a rocket-based combined cycle vehicle. The broad treatment of the gas turbine engine cycles and components makes the book suitable as a reference for propulsion and turbomachinery engineers, gas turbine industry and professional development courses.

Vega Aircraft Corporation $93.99 The Vega Aircraft Corporation was a subsidiary of the Lockheed Aircraft Company responsible for much of its parent companys production in World War II. The company was first formed in August 1937 as the AiRover Company to produce a new lightplane design. It was soon renamed to honor Lockheeds first aircraft design.The AiRover Model 1 was an Orion fitted with a Unitwin engine, which featured two engines driving a single shaft. The AiRover Model 2 was a new design named the Starliner. One Starliner prototype was built and tested, but the design did not go into production.

Royal Aircraft Factory B.E.8 $98.77 Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Royal Aircraft Factory BE.8 was a British twoseat singleengined scout biplane of the First World War, designed by the Royal Aircraft Factory. Small numbers were used by the Royal Flying Corps over the Western Front in the first year of the war, with the type being used as a trainer until 1916. The BE.8 was the last of the Bleriot Experimental types to be designed with a rotary engine. A conventional 1910s biplane with a fixed tailskid landing gear. It also had a pair of skids mounted forward to prevent the aircraft nosing over on rough ground. Three prototypes were built at Farnborough with a single long cockpit for both crew members. The production aircraft had two separate cockpits and where built by subcontractors. An improved BE.8a in 1915 had new wings the wing warping replaced by ailerons and a revised tail unit.

Aircraft Fuel System by Trev, Nuadha [Paperback] $65.33 Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. An aircraft fuel system allows the crew to store, manage, and deliver fuel to the propulsion system of an aircraft. Fuel systems differ greatly due to different performance of the aircraft in which they are installed. A single engine piston aircraft will have a very simple fuel system, while a tanker (like the KC135 the B707 Tanker Transport) in addition of managing its own fuel will also have the capability of delivering fuel to receiving aircraft by means of hoses (drogue and probe system) or boom.

Toys and Models CAT38T Aggressor HM Aircraft $155.94 The AT38B Aggressor Northrop was one of the variants of the Northrop T38 Talon the worlds first and most produced supersonic trainer. The T38 is still in service at present time with the Air Forces. The AT38B Aggressor Northrop aircraft has a conventional configuration and it has a small low long chord wing a single vertical stabilizer and a tricycle undercarriage. The T38 first flew in 1959 and there were more than 1100 Talon aircrafts delivered to the Air Force from 1961 to 1972. The AT38B Aggressor Northrop was used by the Air Educational and Training Command to prepare pilots for front line fighter and bomber aircraft such as the F15E Strike Eagle F15C Eagle F16 Fighting Falcon B1B Lancer A10 Warthog and F/A22 Raptor. The AT38B Aggressor Northrop is an advanced and super sonic flight trainer aircraft which was also used as a fighter lead. It is the very first aggressor aircraft. The AT38B was ordered by the US Air Force in 1950. The AT38B Aggressor Northrop aircraft was much less expensive to operate because the LIFT program had reduced its cost. The LIFT program ended in 1993 when the USAF integrated the training with the UPT.
