Hi Folks,
I'm wondering if there are any opinions about this aircraft with the 912. I've been looking at them for a long time as an affordable LSA option. The folding wings and ease of transport and storage seem to make it an attractive option. It's not a cross country machine but would make local flight more affordable. A person could still rent a SLSA for cross country. NTSB site seems to indicate more than a usual amount of what appear to be stall/spin accidents with fairly high time pilots. Does anyone have any first hand knowledge of this airplane? |

I owned one for 850 hrs. It was one of the first around with a 912ULS. Give me a call and I'll tell you any thing you want to know. It has very good flight characteristics and can fly cross country as many do with their's now. It is a 75-80 mph plane at cruise. It is not a stall sensitive plane
