The FAA has released an updated set of advisory circulars to support the transition to the long-awaited Modernization of Special Airworthiness Certification (MOSAIC) rule, offering new direction for pilots, instructors, and light-sport repairmen. 

The documents, published November 14, aim to align long-standing guidance with the performance-based system that will replace the outdated light-sport framework when MOSAIC takes effect in 2026. Dynon has released SkyView HDX software version 17.4, bringing a fresh round of upgrades and quality-of-life improvements to its flagship experimental avionics suite. The update centers on improving usability, expanding hardware compatibility, and ensuring the system remains current with global data models and evolving technology. Attendees and exhibitors of the Affordable Flying Expo were the first to hear about a powerful new initiative for the 52nd annual SUN ’n FUN Aerospace Expo, April 14-19, 2026. Following the pioneering effort of the Affordable Flying Expo, SUN ’n FUN, ANN, and the SportPlane Resource Guide will designate Thursday as MOSAIC Day, featuring a full day of programming in a comfortable venue astride the Light Plane area. Expect an energetic schedule of seminars, forums, aircraft unveilings, engine spotlights, avionics tutorials, and more— giving SUN ’n FUN attendees an expert, up-to-the-minute immersion in all things MOSAIC at a moment when critical rulemaking is still underway.
