Hi All,

I've scoured the web and magazines looking for a kitplane (that's
available in the U.S.) that has the flying characteristics, AND
cockpit visibility equal to or better than the Diamond DA-20 C1. For
those of you that may not know, the C1 is equipped with a fuel
injected 125 hp conti. The characteristics are low fuel burn, 135kt
cruise, gentle mush/stall at 37 kts with flaps, and VERY fun to fly.

Anyone?


http://www.harbornet.com/folks/shankland/cp323a.jpg is a close match to your
specs.. Build it light and get the bank loan for the new Continental. Only
real problem is scrounging all the parts to make a "kit". Might have to
slightly modify the airfoil to get the stall you want. The FTF (Fun to Fly)
coefficient is all there, though.
