Bearhawk Plans

I agree the Highlander is a nice plane as well, but I can't afford to go the
kit route. I'll look forward to the Bearhawk sport plane and even Van's
RV-12 I think it will be called. I like the Zenith 701 as well but heard
"not to good" reviews when you don't use the overpriced Rotax 912 in them.

The designer of the Bearhawk, Bob Barows designed a tandem (2 place)
version of the bearhawk called the patrol. Still not sport pilot, but he
is working on a sport pilot version of the patrol, for 65-100hp. Expects
to be finished in about a year.

What surprises me is that nobody has plans for a side by side at sport
pilot gross. There are a number of nice planes out there, such as the
Highlander, but no plans builts!

To take it a step further...
Are there any homebuilts that match the performance of a luscombe 8a with a
continental A-65 that uses the same engine?
I am not sure I know of any (2 seat continental A-65 powered, 95 MPH+
cruise)
