I see that two LSA aircrafts that had already been certified, crashed on
their way to SnF, when their engines failed on takeoff. Pilots are badly injured, but alive, thank goodness. At least the slow speed, low energy philosophy of the LSA seems to be allowing people to survive bad incidents. Am I the only one who thinks that Rotax still leaves a lot to be desired, even their 4 strokes? I still will not set foot inside an aircraft that is powered by one. Until an alternate engine is available, LSA is dead on arrival, IMHO. Jubaru? I don't know. There are more than a few bad reports on them, too. O-200's are still a choice, as are C-85's, I suppose, but weight and price makes them somewhat questionable. I hate to be the pessimist, and I am not a troll, for those who know me here, but what is a person to do? I had to get it off my chest. -- Jim in NC |
