East of Scotland LAA Strut

Picture
The East of Scotland Strut is a regional branch of the Light Aircraft Association. Our “territory” is broadly Lothians, Fife and the Borders. We have about 30 members – all of whom are keen aviation enthusiasts, and many have built or are now building their own aircraft.

The Strut is organised as a self-supporting group under the LAA umbrella and elects its own officers at its AGM each February. There is a small annual subscription – this is in addition to the cost of membership of the LAA.

If you are thinking of building, buying, flying and/or maintaining a homebuilt aircraft yourself – or are just generally enthusiastic about aviation, we would be glad to hear from you.
The Light Aircraft Association
The Association is a non-profit making organisation open to anyone interested in aviation. The Association is the representative body in the United Kingdom for amateur aircraft construction, recreational and sport flying.

It’s objectives are to promote and extend the sport of recreational flying by minimising its cost through the advice and services provided for:
  •     the encouragement of amateur design, construction and operation of light and ultra-light aircraft
  •     the formation and administration of co-ownership groups and clubs
  •     the preservation and operation of vintage aircraft
  •     the discharge of regulatory responsibilities assigned by statutory bodies and government departments
  •     the co-operation and negotiation with government departments and other interested organisations to ensure that members’ best interests are protected
  •     generally to carry out such acts as may be conducive to the encouragement and development of recreational flying.
