I've looked all through the http://www.vula.org website for info on the
"Roadrunner" and came up empty. The plane is a 2 seat side by side,
wood/fabric, has convential gear and a Continental C85 engine. It
physically resembles a small Piper Warrior in taildragger configuration.
It should qualify for light sport...

Any directions for specifications that someone could point me in would
be greatly appreciated. Otherwise I won't kneaux more until I can see it
this weekend...

Someone close by has the logs for it (he sent me the frustratingly small
photo), I'll visit him tomorrow. Otherwise its patience, patience,
patience... ;)

Darrel,
I can't find squat on it online. Just be very careful buying something
you don't have anything to compare it to or know "how it operates". I do
like the looks! Keep me posted, and find out who sold plans to it and what
have ya! May have to build one myself :0
