I have to say, none of those new LSAs look very good at all. HAving said
that, I haven't flown one, so I really ought to see what one will do

I wonder how many people who complain about the Skycatcher being built in
China are willing tp spend $200K on the same plane built in the US?

I even envision a company making certified aircraft having trouble making
ends meet (i.e. Piper) restarting their line by doing a similar move.
Imagine an Archer being offered for under $200K. In my opinion, that's the
only way an older airframe like that can compete against a Cirrus. I'm a
Piper guy and the last thing I'd want is to see the quality go down and thus
hurt their brand but I'd rather that than close down their line completely.

I guess Cessna does not care about doing business with a country that
has threatened us with nuclear weapons, sells nuclear technology to
terrorist countries, uses slave labor, has an abysmal environmental
record, refuses to respect copyright and patent laws, sells child
pornography, has no respect for human rights or the rule of law, and
which would just as soon steal from Cessna as do business with them.

I have flown two - the Allegro and the Sport Cruiser.

I didn't care much for the Allegro. The one I flew had a very stiff
rudder - so stiff that once you depressed a rudder pedal it stayed there
unless you pressed the opposite one to manually re-center the rudder.

The Sport Cruiser was very nice. It was quiet and relatively fast, and also
handled very well I thought. The interior was also roomy and comfortable.
If I was in the market for an LSA I would definitely consider the Sport
Cruiser. Right now though I'd rather have an RV-4...

Why should Cessna care any more than the US government does?

Ah, it must be nice to live in such a simple world.

Rudder trim? We don't need no stinkin' rudder trim!

I wonder if they will use lead paint.
