Default Wanted: RTF or builder-assist Rotax sportplane

Here are my qualifications:

- Two-seat

- Either RTF or the type of on-site builder assist where the aircraft is
flyable in under a month!

- Rotax 912 powered (no other modern aircraft engine has impressed me enough
with its reliability).

- IFR capable - a must.

- Glass cockpit of some sort (prefer GRT).

- Under a $100K or thereabouts all-up.


I hold a PPL-IA and instrument capability for light IFR is a must for me.
Currently own an IFR 152 which will be sold along, with, alas, my RV-9A QB
kit. Building is just not in the cards for me at this time.

After a few years of maintaining a Lycoming, I want to fly behind a Rotax -
it's about that simple. I also want something a bit faster than 90 knots
and getting experience with a glass cockpit is something I'm looking to do.

So, it can be a "LSA" or an experimental - I don't care. It just needs to
be flyable within a very short time after its purchase, with my help or
without.

The Aveo Phantom I saw yesterday at OSH (well, not the plane) is the
front-runner, but as yet unproven. Am interested in pursuing all leads and
would love suggestions on aircraft to explore.
