105 IAC 3-4-1 Purpose

Sec. 1. The purpose of this rule is to provide a voluntary certification program for ultralight flightparks that will provide guidance and standardization for the preferred characteristics desired for modern ultralight flightparks. Ultralight flightparks are areas, sites, or locations specifically adapted and used for the landing and taking off of ultralights. While mandatory standards have been deemed unnecessary and unduly burdensome to the ultralight industry, the continuing development of ultralights has made it desirable to institute this program to make the public user aware of those flightparks that meet the criteria for maximizing safety in operations. Failure to participate in this certification program should not be construed as being deficient, rather those flightparks participating should be considered as meeting all desirable standards for modern ultralight flightparks.
