How It Works
The latest FAA-approved SLSA appear at the top—updated continuously as new models are accepted.
Sort the list by Certification Date, Model, Manufacturer, or Importer using column controls.
Type codes indicate aircraft type
FW = Fixed‑Wing
FA = Amphibian
WS = Weight‑Shift
PP = Powered Parachute
GL = Motorglider
Imported aircraft built in other countries but assembled in the U.S. are labeled “(U.S. Built).”
