Transition Training has been identified by the FAA, NTSB, EAA and other organizations have identified transition training as a vital key to the safe flying of all aircraft types. In particular, Experimental Amateur Built aircraft and Light Sport Aircraft can have handling, performance and other characteristics that can differ from GA aircraft that most pilots have experience in. See the FAA Safety Team (FAAST) Transition Training Publication.
Whether your building your own Sonex aircraft or buying one used, you should prepare yourself to fly the aircraft via transition training with a CFI in a Sonex aircraft, or in a similar-handling aircraft type. Further, your aircraft insurance company will likely require transition training or a minimum number of hours in-type before writing a policy.
