Hi,
Is Europa Aircraft still around? Their website is gone and I had heard
there were financial problems. Just curious.


Other than being ugly, it seemed like a decent airplane. Unfortunately,
if one can fly a sleek looking plane that performs as well as the ugly
one, most folks will pick the nice looking one.



Such as what?

Lancair, Glasair, Pulsar, RV, etc., depending on your mission.

I think you should have a price/performance/fueleconomy comparison. Besides,
I did not see the Europa as ugly at all.
