Online airplane directory

Is anyone aware of an online, searchable database of production and kit
airplanes that will allow a search for only high-wing airplanes? I'm
aware of a few of the kits, but most likely not all. I'm looking at
something that would be a decent IFR cross-country machine yet have
decent short-field capability. What I'd really like is a high-wing RV-9
or -10. Too bad Van keeps putting the wing on the wrong side of the
airplane. :-)

The Glastar Sportsman 2+2 comes pretty close to what I'm looking for,
but I'd prefer an all aluminum airplane and one that wasn't quite as
pricey as the Glastar. I'd like a four-seater, but will likely settle
for two seats for economic reasons.

The 172 isn't much of an IFR machine. I owned a 182 for 6 years and it
is a great airplane, but expensive to operate. A 182 is my fall-back,
but I want to search out other options, homebuilts in particular.
