Cool. But if you've flown the "CT", you know that the "modern 152"
is already on the market, brand new, for less than $90K.

Nah. Bad mistake. It still uses a Rotax, which "I" will avoid like
the plague.

I flew it a couple of weeks ago, and am now counting the days until
my kids are grown and I can justify buying a 2-seater. It is a
really fun plane to fly -- and, being made entirely from carbon-fiber
-- it feels like a "real" plane, not a glorified ultra-light like so
many current LSAs.

Put a O-200 in it, and you might have something.


There is nothing wrong with the Rotax, but you CAN get an LSA with an
0-200; the 601XL from AMD. --

And the Champ from Americam Champion. The unugly alternative.
