Phil,
I'm sorry, but SkyCatcher?? I think they should have just stuck with
Cessna 162 and left it at that.
You seem to forget that the other Cessnas all have silly names, too.

No, I knew that. But in silliness, this one goes to eleven. It
sounds like a name an eight year old would pick for the airplane he
just made out of scrap wood.
I don't think it is as bad as 'Stationair.' Sounds like something slow
and ugly, which it is, but they didn't need to call it that . :-)
You could argue that any technical field that
uses terms like flapperon, gascolator, stabilator
and elevon shouldn't have an issue with a marginal
aircraft name (:
