Light Sport has proven safer than previous "not actually an ultralight but enforcement is lax" or EAB operations. Having a robust training culture including the creation of a new instructor certificate I think is a major contributor to that safety.

A significant portion of the expansion will be allowing S-LSA airplanes to be used for aerial work such as pipeline patrol or aerial photography. I see no reason whatsoever a Flight Design CT can't be used for a job a Cessna 152 can do. With a much more modern and efficient engine burning unleaded gasoline.
