First flight!

Talk about airplanes! At last count, there are 39 (and growing) FAA certificated S-LSA (special light sport aircraft). These are factory-built ready to fly airplanes. If you can't afford a factory-built LSA, consider buying an E-LSA kit (experimental LSA - up to 99% complete).

I have to say that Cessna is really pushing the envelop with their claims about this aircraft. Though, I imagine, there will plenty of LEAD in the paint, as it comes out of China.

It is incomprehensible to me, that Cessna would compromise their good name by moving this project to the people's republic of china.

John I agree with u 110% . It is REPREHENSIBLE that Cessna would decide to do business with a company owned by the Communist gov't . Their ideals & philosophy go against the very fundamentals that the freedom of flight inspires . I truely hope that the 1st flight of the Flycatcher is the beginning of the end for it .

For those who are going to sun-fun everyone should stop by the Cessna's little Tiananmen Square & let them know u are disgusted & dissapointed in them .
Opinions are like armpits everybody has a couple & they usually stink .
