[edit] Classification
"General aviation" is not a type of aircraft but a type of operation. GA means not a scheduled service and not military. So, the 8KCAB is not GA necessarily. Could be a military spotter. Could be a scheduled 1 passenger airliner. OK, unlikely, but nevertheless, "general aviation" is still wrong. What it is, is a light aircraft. Unfortunately the new FAA category light-sport aircraft causes confusion as most light aircraft are not LSA. The caption beneath the photo in this article could be taken to mean that this aircraft is a light-sport aircraft. It is not. Both issues fixed. Paul Beardsell 20:27, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
