Mosaic is going to change everything. Unexpectedly, pilots will be able to fly most Cirrus, Diamond, Tecnam, and Cessna single engine aircraft under sport pilot rules.
Trump says completed trade deal with Japan: "will pay Reciprocal Tariffs to the United States of 15%", "will open their Country to Trade including Cars and Trucks, Rice and certain other Agricultural Products, and other things."
