The global light-sport aircraft market size reached US$ 1.1 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 1.8 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 6.65% during 2023-2028.

A light-sport aircraft (LSA) is a small aircraft with two seats and a maximum take-off weight of 600 kgs. It also has an engine, fixed-pitch or ground adjustable propeller, unpressurized cabin, fixed landing gear, gyroplanes, gliders, powered parachutes, airships, and air balloons. As it is lightweight, non-complex, easy to fly, and less expensive compared to other aircraft, LSA finds extensive applications in sports, recreational activities, and flying training. At present, there is a rise in its utilization in recreational activities due to the expanding travel and tourism industry around the world.

Light-Sport Aircraft Market Trends:

The growing number of pilot training institutions across the globe represents one of the key factors driving the market. Moreover, aviation regulatory bodies of various countries are introducing new requirements and updating existing ones to increase LSA procurements. This, coupled with the escalating demand for lightweight airplanes for better acceleration, higher structural strength and stiffness, and improved safety performance, is propelling the growth of the market. Apart from this, the ease of building aircraft with available kits and information is offering lucrative growth opportunities to the key market players. These players are introducing new generation aircraft to meet the demand for small airplanes worldwide. In line with this, the growing utilization of LSA in agriculture for dusting or spraying large acreages with pesticides is positively influencing the market. Furthermore, the escalating demand for certification courses of hobby flying activities among individuals is bolstering the market growth. Other factors strengthening the growth of the market include rising research and development (R&D) activities and collaboration of various aircraft manufacturers to develop enhanced technologies for urban air mobility solutions.
