No. As a licensed Private Pilot, you would not need an additional SPL. If you are already a Private Pilot holding a seaplane rating (SES), you do not need any additional training to fly an LSA seaplane. If you are a Private Pilot or higher and do not hold a seaplane rating, you will need the LSA seaplane training endorsement before flying an LSA seaplane. ICON will be offering water flying training to all A5 owners at aircraft delivery.
