   @Royper Maybe not a particular aircraft, but an archetype of “Super high performance kitplane detuned to meet american LSA standards” like this one. I still think about buying one of these sometime, Ferried one once and it was a real hoot even with the flat six. It was REALLY meant to be an affordable hot rod, but they had to clip its wings a bit in order to get it slow enough to meet LSA standards (so boomers can fly it w/ a driver license instead of a medical exam)

   Look at the glide ratio on that thing: 15 to 1. That’s NOT a beginner’s plane, it’s sleek and slippery, very graceful and rewards careful power management. If you come in 10 knots fast in the flare, you’re gonna need 1500 feet to bleed it off and bring her down.

   Also on the radio you can say you’re “Aryan 16645“ which is cool. Aryan Lightning.

   Would have to fly it again w/ the full powered engine though, just to be sure. But for the money….I really liked it. Buyer probably totaled it by now though, he was coming from a 152 with all of 60 hrs tt.
