1 - It's still a motorglider so here in Europe it needs a full pilots
licence.
2 - TINSFOS!

A side by side two seater is just the sort of thing I'm looking for.
The
social aspect on one hand and the fact that if I fly with either of my
young
children I can get to them in flight is just so attractive. Add to that
1:47
performance, folding wings, and new, composite construction, and it's
the
perfect solution. If they were to say they were coming out with a
'traditional' ( ie folding motor in the fuse ) sustainer version I'd
send
'em a deposit tomorrow!
I really wish DG and Schempp would come up with optional side-by-side
fuselages for their ships.

They are manufacturing a SLMG two seater side by side called the Taurus.
Higher
performance than the Sinus and just what you are looking for less a few
L/'D
points.
Two advantages though. Much lower cost so you can afford to fly more, and
smaller, so much easier to rig, hangar and transport. Sounds interesting
to me.
