I'm considering buying a completed Glasair 1 FT with an IO360 and FP prop.
I fly a Grumman Cheetah but want a lot more speed and range. I cannot find
any V-speeds on the net for the Glasair 1, only for the Glasair ll. What
kind of TO and LDG distances does it require?


Don't have the V-speeds, but double check the pitch and yaw stability at
aft c.g., especially at slow speeds. Double check that this plane's
envelope is as per factory recommendations, and find out if the
prototype was spin tested.
