It could go that way. I'm not sure. The team seems excited about it
that's for sure. They can't talk really so it's still a crap shoot on
which way things will go. My guess is a composite of some kind.
How deeply this splits up between the actual simulation and "game"
venues will of course either bring in or lose the simulator community.

Hell I might go mad and get it if its going to be that good..

Is that model Ercoupe one of those that are certified as LSA? I know
that some are and others not.

Nope, ours is a 415E model. Identical in every way as the LSA-
certified models, but with a (paperwork) higher useful load.

In the FAA's eternal wisdom, this disqualifies the plane -- forever --
from LSA certification.

Well, doggonit, Too bad. I might have been interested if it had been.
If I ever fly again it will have to be under Sport Pilot limits. There's no
way I could still pass another medical if I ever took one. I guess I'll
have to stick with my sim planes for now.g

Yep, I guess the LSA Ercoupes are pretty rare. Probably higher priced,
too. Oh well, I can still fly left seat in a C172 with a CFI on board,
though---at 150 bucks an hour.g

At $150/hour, you only need to fly 120 hours and you could have bought
the Ercoupe!

Which, BTW, costs about $15/hour to operate -- plus a few gallons of
gar gas...
